OlympicsFan 783 Posted August 7, 2016 #156 Share Posted August 7, 2016 3 new doping records on day 1, thank god i didnt watch this shit. Whoever watches finals in swimming, athletics or weightlifting is part of the doping problem. None of those athletes would dope if they wouldnt get any attention for it. I know that this will go on as long as many nations profit from it, but at least i can say that i did whatever i could to not support doping. I hope that Russia and China will win all the medals one day, maybe thats the time when something will change. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
