Athletes from other Countries that you will root against at the Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024


 Share

Recommended Posts

I try not to root against people. It doesn't seem very Olympian.

 

I try not to. But I regularly fail!

 

So.

 

1 with a bullet - :NED Dutch peado rapist ghoul. Seriously, Netherlands, what the **** are you smoking?? I mean outright dopers, cheats, loathe them, but you manage to find the one guy I'd actually cheer on the roided up junkie against! I'd cheer one of the bloody Russians against!

 

This will stain the Netherlands authorities for years to come.

 

Ok, onto the normals...

 

"Some people like giants, some people like giantkillers" (Simon Barnes quote) As a rule, I go into the latter classification.

 

I hope somebody screws up the 'perfect' goals of the :CHN Chinese diving and table tennis teams. I'm not wildly bothered which.

 

I want the Chinese swim team decimated. you simply cannot be allowed to get away with what has obviously been going on (state-protected doping regime)

 

Conversely I would love the Chinese to beat :USA America in the Women's team gymnastics.

 

Individuals:

 

:GER Zverev (thug)

:NOR J Ingabrigtsen (not real dislike, it's just he's funny when he loses)

:USA Sydney McLaughlin (I simply can't stomach the love in for a Kersee athlete), Hoppel

:KEN most of their team apart from faith. Sorry, guys, I like Kenya but your system's broken.

:ALG Sedjati - I don't trust him an inch

No, it won't. Also, not sure semi death wishes are acceptable here (despite that having been accepted on the forum before).

 

I do agree with him being allowed to participate by the way, but definitely won't be cheering for him. And just to be clear: that very obviously does not equal accepting what he did as remotely OK.

The British gymnastics team and not because I dislike any of them on an individual level. But can’t stand the BBC commentary when it comes to covering it. And yes I can and do watch on other channels but still the thought of Matt Baker and co drooling over their own while actively cheering against the competition makes me want any result that will keep them in their box :p

Also nothing against their shooters, as far as I remember they're usually Bahrain-born and raised instead of bought athletes :d 

Well, an exception to them then :d

    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
