I assume you have the same disdain for US swimmer Michael Andrew who refused to wear his mask during his interview per the rules?

You are incorrect.  The swimmer Michael Andrew COULD NOT BREATHE in his mask  well enough.

“For me, it’s pretty hard to breathe in after kind of sacrificing my body in the water, so I feel like my health is a little more tied to being able to breathe than protecting what’s coming out of my mouth.”

So the swimmer is unvaccinated. His choice, is it not?  Who is he putting at risk, exactly, since anyone who wants a vaccine can get one?  If your answer is other unvaccinated folks then they also made the same decision and accept whatever risk that might entail. :dunno:

 

I wasn’t really referring to him being unvaccinated, I was referring to his refusal to wear a mask during his interview which pretty much everyone else had no problem doing (although him being unvaccinated is even more reason why he should have been wearing one).

Lol, and yet both Katie Ledecky and Bobby Finke didn’t have any issue wearing one literally seconds after winning the 1500, which was about 15-30x longer than most of Andrew’s races.   Plus I think his interview wasn’t even until a little while later since he choked and finished 4th so no one really cared what he had to say.

Back to the games.  Congrats to wrestler Adeline Gray on her silver medal.

Tamyra Mensah-Stock should probably win gold though.  She likes to make a heart sign after her matches is that offensive too?

So which is it?  Was Andrew breaking rules, like you said in a previous post, or should he do it because others have?

Uswnt loses to canada.

Our team is so OLD.  Being back the old and slow.  We have had like 8 or 9 goals reversed due to offsides.

Why...because we are old and slow.  Our average age is like 32 for the team.

Just needed Hope Solos roast beef to round out the team.

Play the theme to golden girls when they introduce them

It is his truth.  Why are you questioning it?

What does this even mean?  

"the intersection where all people who are oppressed meet.”

 

As a fellow ugly person, it just occurred to me what she's really protesting is looksism because no one gives a shìt if you're black or gay if you're hot.  And you probably won't be depressed either.  She probably doesn't even realize it because she probably doesn't want to admit she's ugly.

The real oppression in this country is of me and my fellow ugly motherfūckers.  Nothing comes easy for us.

Today's philosophical question: If a protest happens from a non-medaling team does it make a sound? 

Yup.

It does. 

They are still pukes.  Pukes are pukes regardless of place.


If it was found of George Floyd won the 50m dash in elem school, he'd still be a puke.

Because he was breaking protocols, and because he's unvaccinated.

You really believe he's a world class swimmer, and can't breathe with a loose piece of fabric over his mouth?

Thank god the dude pretending to be a woman failed his women’s weightlifting attempts and is out. What a farce. Show me a woman who becomes a man he competes with the men and I’ll be impressed and even cheer her on. Other way around though is complete horsechit and he should be embarrassed. It’s like if Mark McGuire put a wig on and knocked softballs out the park, cmon now.

Tie-breaker should be they all tee off at the same time and race to see who can get it into the hole first.

Or do like they do in member/guest shootouts.

Tee off on say, hole 4 - play to green 17. However you get there is up to you, fewest strokes in wins.

Probably. Liberals aren't good at following or enforcing rules.

See the border, the streets of San Francisco,  BLM protests... we could go on pretty much indefinitely here.

Bad news.  No medal.  11th.

 

Impressive.  11th out of how many competitors? 

This was probably her plan all along.  She knew she had ZERO shot at a medal so had to get her ugly mug in the papers some other way.  ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

Initially I didn't bash S. Biles... What she does up there is physically (extremely) dangerous. If your head/ass isn't wired right, you could paralyze yourself.....or worse. 

But FFS, to come back a couple days later, and all of the sudden be okay to compete??? Give me a break, did Moses drop from the heavens and heal you? 

Total BS move, she should of stayed out.
