i LOVE the USA Hatred, please, keep it coming, but i will keep looking at the medal table, see 14 more golds then the second place, and 40 more overall medals then the second place. That is the definition of Olympic DOMINATION. So keep it coming, this jealousy is fun!

US sprinter Mike Rogers just told me US is protesting the DQ. Stay tuned the night is young.

 

Would be so cruel to Canada if its overturned.

Why am i not surprised ;)

Less than twice the number of medals of a country five time less populated.

 

Yipee ?

Oh, please... No one hates USA, but the inequality... Do you really think Bahamas' relay, for example, would be allowed to re-run they race like your team did if they appealed? Of course they wouldn't be allowed to.

 

Did you forget what happened to Catalina Ponor in London? ;) 

 

Not to mention that you, Americans, called Miller out for what she 'did' to your sweetheart Felix, while it was totally ok when Neville did the same to Brown of The Bahamas in Beijing, 8 years ago.

 

As I already said, no one actually hates US as a country or anything, most people dislike the inequality and hypocrisy...

Because everyone would protest a DQ when they think it's an unfair decision? 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Their relay clearly broke the rules and there was nothing to appeal against...

Yet still it's completely their right to protest a DQ.

Jealous of what? 

Because you have more medals than any other country?

Sincerely, if every country on This planet had all the money invested and all the best installations for athletes to compete, It wouldn't be the same thing.  But i know that It is not the athletes fault if They have all This and honestly it's not what i am bothered about.  I am bothered by the fact that there is a double standard regarding the rules for certain countries.  If You are from the great USA, no Matter the fault you Will Probably win at the end.  And This is the truth.  If It was a country like the Bahamas or The Fidgi, there is no way that their appeal would have been listened.  This is a fact.  And i have plenty other examples if you want to hear them.  The problem with American people sometimes, because not everybody are like that is their arrogance and the superiority complex that They seem to be proud of.

 

Now Rant over.

    • That would be fantastic. Mostly I just don't need the sidebar because it makes the experience less good by being distracting and in the way, but the main issue (for me, that is) is seeing content of all kinds of threads.   I'm very glad this wasn't around during the Olympics yet, I would genuinely not have been able to enjoy Totallympics at all then. That was sometimes already somewhat difficult with the never-ending insistence of people to spoil results in threads of other sports, but the current sidebar would have made it very hard (and that would be a shame, because I definitely love and always will love Totallympics ).   Anyhow, we'll see how this develops. And about the clubs: yes, you see the latest posts in the sidebar, but I don't want to see posts in the sidebar at all (and in the case of , the club isn't that active, so for weeks I've basically seen the same 2-3 year old posts). Seeing a changing poll or newly registered users or something, while not ideal to have it in a non-customisable sidebar, is at least less distracting than actual content so less of a problem.   Again, all just my opinion, I can totally imagine other people - probably even a majority - have no issues whatsoever.    
    • Yes, the whole forum is now wider so the "posts" section is almost as wide as before.   The sidebar can be customised anyway so my plan is to add more things in the future, like olympic qualification trackers and other things. I can try to ask for a customised plugin where users can choose what they see in the sidebar, but I am not sure it will be possible.   If you are in a club or not makes no difference on the presence of the sidebar, right? You should just see your club's latest post if you have joined a club, but if you are no part of any club you should still see the sidebar, with the other blocks (like a poll, the latest registered users etc.)
    • So you see the sidebar also from tablet/mobile?
    • Hardly, it was out before the Tokyo Games happened...
    • And watching Artistic Swimming or Ice Dancing you can get impressed with the choreo and the artistic elements... Im just still trying to understand Kata. All seemed the same, all doing the same... why someone won? Cause they shouted more? It was veeeery weird   Not that Kumite was any better. I failed to understand that too.     Karate had it chance and it fumbled the bag pretty hard. Almost as hard as Breaking.
    • Cool to be invited a few days before because Sweden etc declines and then use the opportunity to win everything!
    • We also have artistic swimming and figure skating. Dancing will be a part of the Olympics, even if DanceSport never returns.
    • No, we don't. I know this is even going to keep me away from the forum in the winter, when the winter sports are going on (which I know isn't important, but I find sad for myself ), because it's just unavoidable to see comments and replies in other threads. Might almost as well make it one massive chat room instead of having separate threads...   Anyhow, something changed since last night it seems, the open thread is now at least wider (on desktop/laptop) and the sidebar takes relatively a bit less space, so that's....somewhat better, I guess? It should be a setting though, since I can definitely imagine some people find it useful or even nice, while others don't.   I'm having this sidebar since joining the NED club right before the Olympics, and have found the presence of that bar highly irritating ever since (in such a way that, now that I realize it, I'll leave the club now that the Olympics are done for the sole purpose of having less of the sidebar)   
    • Thinking breakdancing 'changes the essence of the Olympics' is somewhat exaggerated, to be fair. Especially when you consider we already have an Olympic dancing competition that's widely accepted as being part of it (unfortunately), and is called dressage.
    • Singapore is 2 races out from qualifying their first ever skier.
