Olympian1010 7,976 Posted October 24, 2023 #1121 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Terrifying crash for Akil Campbell in the omnium. He went head first over the bike, but got up and walked off the track. First time I’ve seen a bike behave like that after contact with another rider. It basically somersaulted under him and threw him off. Weird. Josh 1 “Sport has the power to change the world.

Olympian1010 7,976 Posted October 24, 2023 #1123 Share Posted October 24, 2023 In terms of team sports, Fistball would be more competitive than either cricket or lacrosse. Plus, you’d almost certainly have the top players present. Colombia would never add the sport, but Brazil could potentially be lobbied. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Same for cricket I assume a cricket competition would split the West Indies so there will actually be a decent number of teams. would all be decent teams. Perhaps some of the smaller members of the West Indies could also take on for a spot. phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
