2024 Olympics

[egregious]

this will more than likely happen. i'm sure they can fit the olympics in another sequel of a 66 year old guy doing a lot of running.

like Forrest Gump, where he ends up running alongside the 100m final and keeps up?

[vegashog]

tom cruise doesn't keep up, he'll win the fucking thing

[jdcatty]

Not only are the opening and closing ceremonies weird as shit, they are also way too long.

[HOGSRUNWILD]

The whole gymnastics thing was fucking retarded, yet all these fucking super-retards claiming racism for the Romanian girl getting the Bronze she fucking earned take the cake.

The judges, likely motivated by ACTUAL racism and wanting an 'All Black' Podium made the mistake the screw the white girl in the first place.  Now, the fucking super-retards are claiming racism for what they know is the right decision to give the Romanian the Bronze. 

You just can't fucking please these people.  When blatant racism goes there way, they are fine with it, but when fairness is applied, they see it as racism.  Equal treatment feels like racism when you have had that special 'Privilege'  for so long.

I don't blame the black girl one bit, it is the retards, including her retard sister, claiming racism that I despise.

French put on a nice closing ceremony.  LA put on a cheap gimmicky show.  The contrast was embarrassing.  Chile peppers had zero scovilles.  Fucking Billie eilish on the beach with her goober band.  Dre and snoop tried but sounded like they had no monitors.

They should have had Metallica, The Beach Boys, Los Lobos, Eagles. 

Tom fucking Cruise.  Doing a movie. 

this.

you know these games are gonna be woke as shit!

when you think of LA and the Olympics - it's all about the Coliseum

[SwahiliSteve]

Tom cruise and Lucifer both in the closing ceremony.

First time they've been seen together.

BUT, if you look at the WHOLE picture, the Romanian girl didn't "earn" it. They scored Chiles wrong. They admitted they scored her wrong. The hoopla is that the US was "allegedly" 4 seconds too late in appealing. Either way, the Romanian didn't "earn" the Bronze. She was/might be gifted the Bronze due to the judges messing up the scoring, but it wasn't earned.

And I apologize for using this month's quota of quotations.

False, they also deducted points for the Romanian 'touching' outside the line when she absolutely did not and video clearly confirms it.  She got fucked.

That was a different Romanian gymnast, not the one that is now in 3rd.

However: https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/11/sport/jordan-chiles-stripped-bronze-medal-floor-exercise-paris-olympics-spt-intl/index.html

The US is now appealing that decision and USA Gymnastics announced Sunday that it has submitted additional evidence to CAS as part of the effort to have gymnast Chiles' medal reinstated.

The organization said it has video evidence "conclusively establishing that Head Coach Cecile Landi's request to file an inquiry was submitted 47 seconds after the publishing of the score, within the 1-minute deadline required by FIG rule."

"The video footage provided was not available to USA Gymnastics prior to the tribunal's decision and thus USAG did not have the opportunity to previously submit it."

Wrong again.

The girl that got wrongly deducted 0.1 is officially "tied" for 3rd, but lost due to a tie-break with the other girl and if they hadn't fucked her, would be in actual third ahead of Chiles and Barbosu.

Rebeca Andrade. 14.166.
Simone Biles. 14.133.
Ana Maria Bărbosu. 13.700. ...
Sabrina Maneca‐Voinea. 13.700. ...
Jordan Chiles. 13.666. ...

Adding .1 to Chiles has her jumping both of them at 13.766, but adding in the fraudulent deduction for Voinea puts her back up into 3rd solely at 13.800.

The Romanian coach should have protested the bad call on the foot but did not.  She got fucked by her coaches not watching right. 

Had the judges made the calculation correctly from the start she would have won the bronze by a narrow margin.  Chiles should have been given the bronze back since the video proves the protest was within the rules.  Fucking eurotrash Vichy French Nazi shit.

Kudos to you for doing all of that math and trying to bail yourself but you know that's not who the OP was referring to when he said she didn't EARN it.

The gymnast that "didn't step out" is not relevant to this issue. Her coach didn't protest about that.

And Chiles appeal has been denied.

USA Gymnastics announced in a statement on social media Monday, Aug. 12, that the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has denied the Olympian's appeal to reinstate the bronze medal she received after the women's individual floor exercise final on Monday, Aug. 5.

"USA Gymnastics was notified by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on Monday that their rules do not allow for an arbitral award to be reconsidered even when conclusive new evidence is presented," the statement read. "We are deeply disappointed by the notification and will continue to pursue every possible avenue and appeal process, including to the Swiss Federal Tribunal, to ensure the just scoring, placement, and medal award for Jordan."

All of these people around the country who are up in arms about this gymnastics review have clearly never watched an SEC football game/ review process.

That is who I have been talking about this whole time, the foot girl.  Try to keep up.
