watching the IOC session yesterday it was like Chinese communist party, everybody praising the dictator and trying to kiss a part of his body. it was like he invented the Olympic himself. very disgusting. 

 

of course such result was expected after that.

Quite surprised by the result, I guess Bach has more influence on every member than anyone expected. I just hope Kirsty's reign is better than her tenure as Secratary of Sport in Zimbabwe.

reading her wikipedia page and art hipsters hate her and  she survived FARM DRAMA in south africa ? I like her already .

If she can get pressing matters sorted like this blanket ban on transgender athletes sorted quickly, like she promised to do in a recent BBC interview, then I can see her reign being quite successful. I can also see her being in favour of more athlete quotas for LA which is always a good sign, and maybe we'll finally get 50m events fully at an Olympics which is something I assume she'll be looking at doing.

It probably is but having Zimbabwe suspended during your tenure isn't something to be proud of.
