Stop Kowtowing to China | Real Time with Bill Maher
I agree with the above, this is just a dumb racist argument. Gu rode for China by choice, both because her parents are Chinese and because it was an excellent opportunity for her.
Does the poster believe we shouldn’t have any foreign born athletes on the American team? That’s going to remove some top athletes, @bobknight33.
Also, fuck China, why is the IOC kowtowing to Russia, who should be completely banned from competition for the next 40+ years after their state sponsored doping scheme was caught, not allowed to compete under a slightly different name, not allowed to compete even after testing positive for performance enhancing drugs? Not denying many others a medal because there are serious questions about Russia cheating again, but having no consequences for Russia!
Fuck the olympics. They’re so past their prime, are a loser for host countries, aren’t a fair sports organization or even close, is rife with abuse, fraud, and scandal…etc. It’s time to quit them.
America isn’t close to genocide, Bill? What about our native populations, many now extinct and more relegated to worthless areas with no services or resources. Remember forced re-education? Relocation? Extermination? Cultural genocide? Religious persecution? WTF happened to Bill? You know there’s an issue if Bob is on your side. America did everything we accuse China of doing to the Wiegers and more, and continues to do so to this day.
BTW, Bill….Hong Kong is part of China legally and historically, unlike Taiwan and Tibet.
Reminds me a lot of the rule that you can’t criticize Trump without severe consequences.
John Oliver: Olympics Opening Ceremony
I think the IOC may file suit against him for (C) violations.
FIFA Corruption Exposed New Documentary
Of course FIFA is shady as hell just like the IOC, but weird about how the FBI and DOJ became involved. Kinda seems like the gist of their argument is that if you use the US dollar (which ultimately must pass through a US bank), that makes you subject to US law enforcement.
Since everyone knew FIFA was corrupt, the paranoid conspiracist part of me wonders if this isn't a ploy to set a precedent for its own sake or as a prelude to something else.

Flying Dutchman goes HUGE on Mens Horizontal bar
Love this footage from the stands. Even more exciting than the official coverage. (And the IOC shouldn't be able to file a copyright claim.)
Olympics Diving Fail
Fixed, for now. Screw you, IOC.

Nike and Adidas mandate clothing at Olympics
>> ^Sagemind:
The rule is one of several strict guidelines set by organisers to protect the exclusivity rights of sponsors such as Coca-Cola, Visa and McDonald’s and prevents ambush stunts from rival non-sponsors. It means that athletes are prevented from endorsing their individual sponsors throughout the event.
Athletes found in breach of the laws could be fined and disqualified from the Games, although this has never happened.

Seems like the UN is bigger than the IOC. Couldn't we just tell them "Fuck you we're not putting up with your shit!." I mean it's not like they have an army or anything, and I'm really sick of corporations ruling everyone.
I'm also sick of the Olympics not being about Amateurs anymore...it should be 100% non-professionals!

I Dare You To Steal The Olympic Torch. I DARE YOU!
>> ^thumpa28:
Good for this guy, Hate the olympics, not usually but im a londoner. Not allowed to wear pepsi t-shirts, eat non-mcdonald fries, use a mastercard in the olympic village, zil lanes, not allowed to link to the locog website with 'derogatory' comments, locog refusing to release ticket details because all the prestige events sold to sponsors... All organised by that smug git Lord Coe. The sport comes a distant second.
The whole ritual is rather silly. What does that stick signify? A lot of corrupt IOC officials and corporate interests.
Looks like if you had three guys rushing you could definitely take it and throw it in a nearby canel
Canada Wins Gold, Proceeds to Party Down
The IOC needs a lobotomy. This has nothing to do with the technical integrity of the sport, and thus the IOC can go fuck itself. That said, I'm not sure the way the team celebrated was exactly classy or sportsmanlike, but that's no an issue for the IOC; the team should be able to celebrate however they like.
Canada Wins Gold, Proceeds to Party Down
Why you gotta break balls, Associated Press? The IOC didn't care until the press showed up.
