NikoBaltimore Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 The first four reasons I can understand. But why they didn't reissue tickets after arresting scalpers is beyond me. And the fifth reason is absurdly stupid, especially considering they weren't even close to filling up most of the events to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I don't put my hand over my heart during national anthems at stuff, just stand like that. It doesn't really make a difference. It's like bitching about people who don't stand because of their religious beliefs, get over it. Not everyone is you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire country was paying attention to gymnastics so it's more susceptible to hot takes or faux outrage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I feel bad for Gabby. Between the idiots talking about the anthem and the stupid "only 2" rule in gymnastics her 2nd Olympics has been shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason, people seek her out to talk shit, when she's never done anything to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Maybe its because the team dared to have one more black girl than legally allowed by whiny old horndawgs on ESPN comment boards. Or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 So, the Lochte story.... He apparently really did stand up and scream in the face of a man pointing a gun at him. Not a holdup, just a security guard, but still... I'm legitimately surprised that's the true part. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I truly found myself in the "wrestling bubble" minutes ago. I saw the term DQ'd trending on Twitter ,and considered ROH and Evolve lineups tonight, before any Olympic event came to mind. Anyway, was the Gold Medal Women's Soccer match today, or does it take place tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostinube Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 LOL at Canadians on twitter lobbying for Japan to also be DQed in the relay (for the record, you can step on the line in a straightaway but not a curve - Canada got DQed in 2012 for stepping on the line). Plus that whole race-walking thing from earlier about the bronze. The Olympics, bringing countries together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
