These guys could be Nordic superheroes for all I know, so, no, I will not be falling for your nonsense. They are pretty much. I expect them to win 10-14 golds between them.

DireWolfSpirit Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 Eh some IOC proclamations- https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/34245374/ioc-reinstates-jim-thorpe-sole-winner-1912-olympic-decathlon-pentathlon This has bothered me many years, ever since learning about Jackie Robinson and Thorpe in our amazing elementary school library. Even as a pre teen I sensed the gravity of the injustice that was dealt to Thorpe and his medal stripping. Now all these years past, finally Thorpe has been reinstated and officially recognized. The injustice and indignity should have never happened. It was long past the time for this. ETA: The Olympics now looks quite a bit less foolish than it has for these 112 years, Bravo Zulu!

DireWolfSpirit Posted July 23, 2022 Author Share Posted July 23, 2022 USA's pride and joy. McLaughlin has been shattering the 400m hurdle World Records by breathtaking margins seemingly each new track meet. How low can this 20 year old wonder girl drive the time? She and her coach believe she can go even faster and hasn't peeked yet. https://www.espn.com/olympics/trackandfield/story/_/id/34282867/unreal-sydney-mclaughlin-obliterates-own-world-record-winning-first-400m-hurdles-title-world-championships Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
