I was watching that. That one dude from Cuba is huge.
The best volleyball player I've been on the same court as was from Cuba. They grow 'em different there.
I too liked it, at times they tried a little too hated, but for certain it was way too long.
It was an almost four-mile trip down the Seine, that’s gonna take a while. But yeah, the jarring cut from robohorse coming to the bridge to suddenly a real horse coming down the plaza was weird.
What competitions are they banned from this time? I know they got players in the tennis draw
Yeah. I though they could still compete. Just not under the Russian flag.
Russia and Belarus have been banned completely. Individual athletes can compete. Not as a team/country though.
That's stupid
It cheapens medal counts. The US media will jam it down everyone’s throat when the US has the most medals at the end of the Olympics. Well…
And cheating doesn't? I know it's not why they are banned, but they cheated for decades and the corrupt IOC always turned a blind eye. I'd be fine with Russia being perma banned until there is legitimate change in leadership of that country because you know it's not going to change with Putin in charge.
I would think systematic cheating sanctioned by the government cheapens the medal count, but to each their own.
I think we are talking about different things. If athletes are known to be cheating, they should not be allowed to compete, regardless of country. I agree with this wholeheartedly.
Oh I see. So team events they can’t compete in. That probably only affects a handful of events though. Volleyball for sure, maybe handball, rugby.
