She "they/them" is a competitor in the womens shot put even though she claims transgender, pronouns etc. Medaled in Japan. Wears a mask and sunglasses.

That bullshit display is probably part of her transgender mask shtick to get attention, and it's unacceptable behavior.

It's problematic because it makes people want to turn away from the Olympics and the athletes that are there to compete based on skills, hard work and for the country.

Many of us grew up watching these events, winter and summer games and remember the Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Defeat, and none of this Woke agenda crap.

Yup, I remember Bruce Jenner winning the decathlon and as a result being on every box of Wheaties one could find. For years.

I Wonder what ever happened to him.

It's not a problem for me in the least bit. If I couldn't watch it with my (non-existent) children, then I'm not going to sneak around and watch it after they go to bed.

I'll just leave the Olympics to the alphabet people. The fact that the organizers even considered that opening for the Olympics is enough for me to never watch it again.

There's no apologies they could make that will change my mind.

Yea I saw that too. I'm still thinking WTF ??? There's nothing about that game suitable for the Olympics, not by a long shot. We used to do that waiting for a full court to free up. Stupid.

The equestrian competition has been outstanding. If you want to see the heart, spirit, conditioning, and precision of great horse riding, check out the streaming equestrian events. Spectacular stuff.

The boys approve. (Most of the competitors are mares.)



And my old boy, Karma, is all in.

Firehoses and Lawn Darts

Two teams on a soccer field, twelve players each side. Each team gets one high-pressure firehose. The other eleven members of each team get 18 lawn darts.

Capture the opposing team's firehose. That's it. No referees, no rules except you can't leave the field unless you're on a stretcher.

Two 20 minute halfs. 20 minute halftime to remove the dead and treat puncture wounds. The second half, another 18 lawn darts are handed out to each member.

You want a fuckin' gold medal? How bad you want it?

That's pretty creative. The more I try to run that game in my head the more I like it.

That's not the Olympics. That's at a Crossfit event in Texas.

Biologist Richard Dawkins Says Facebook Nuked Account After Posting That Male Boxers Shouldn't Fight Women

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...ould-not-fight-women

Facebook has nuked the account of famed evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins after he said that genetically male boxers should not be allowed to fight women in the Olympics.

On Saturday morning, Dawkins posted on X about the shocking censorship - saying that there was no reason given for the sudden removal of his account.

"My entire @facebook account has been deleted, seemingly (no reason given) because I tweeted that genetically male boxers such as Imane Khalif (XY undisputed) should not fight women in Olympics. Of course my opinion is open to civilised argument. But outright censorship?"

Kennedy Blades, my co-workers daughter!
There might be an arrest warrant for her, she murdered her opponent! Wink

I think she’s going for the medal tomorrow morning.
Keeping my fingers crossed!
