And that asshole move will cost Mexico one Olympic quota.

There have been videos? I'd love to see them!

 

Much like the early keirin rounds in World Cups that are never shown, often there's some DNF's and so on there, but there's no video so nobody really knows whether it was a mistake, a dumb move or an outright idiotic move.

The one I saw didn't have the best angle to clearly show who was at fault, but UCI decided to warn her, so she must have done something not so clean in terms of racing.

Possible, although I've seen plenty of REL's and DQ's for things that were not necessarily an idiotic move (such as Mark Cavendish in Rio, where he utterly destroyed a South Korean rider) as much as a not very smart mistake (as so often happens in the keirin). There is quite the difference between them.

    • Not sure yet, this is not the final ranking + there's still an elimination after 30 votes - all will be revealed at 19:00 GMT in the closing ceremony. 
    • They claim the other side to be fascist and dictatorial but themselves aren't willing to accept the popular mandate. 
    • Congrats to @Hipooofor a well deserved win. Amazing song.   Congratulations to the 3rd place @Erigert. So happy for you and well done.    Thank you @Cinnamon Bunfor all your hard work. Well done. 
    • It’s always kind of fascinating to me the extend to which MAGAs hate around half of the country.   Not that this current doesn’t also exist on the left, but ya know, just seems like an odd posture to take for someone who claims to be a patriot.   Anyway, unfortunatly I don’t have any tears to donate because I’ve never cried over politics, the only times I’ve cried as an adult were when my dad died and when I was divorcing my ex. The extend to which I don’t cry is actually a bit unhealthy and I’m working on it!   Anyway, Stitch is super queer and neurodivergent coded, and he’s an illegal alien living in a deep blue state, so he probably voted for Harris. And unlike me he can give you some tears.

    • I think this is the least good of the games since… either Salt Lake or Turin.   I still like it, we don’t really get bad looks of the game anymore.   Pictograms are solidly okay imo.

    • Given Trump wants a law saying that only gender assigned at birth should be recognized, I wonder how such a law (along with any laws "protecting women’s sports") would affect athletes with DSDs. Because it would make it illegal to consider athletes like Caster Semenya or Imane Khelif as anything other than female, since that’s their gender assigned at birth and that’s apparently immutable.   There is an interesting tension there.
    • I honestly don't like them very much, but that's because I prefer a minimalist approach on the Rio 2016 model. I loved those pictograms. But hey, at least they are definitely better than Paris 2024
    • Can't imagine being anyone better to be on top for the Olympics and the world cup.  Someone who loves America so much and will demand a full spectacle to show our strength and power.    This is the unsung benefit of his amazing elections.    I wasnt going to go to the opening ceremony.  But now I definetly will!
