heywoodu 13,663 Posted September 6, 2016 #41 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Zero (correct, 0) Indian media people have gone to Rio to cover the Games and their athletes, that's so sad for the athletes, like a big "f*ck you, we don't give a damn" http://www.parasport-news.com/indian-media-absent-from-rio-games/11100/ 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!

Indian sports journalists are bunch of buffoons who would have asked useless and demoralising questions. They have zero interest and knowledge about sports. But, once an Indian athlete wins a medal, these same media persons will try to guilt the rest of the nation for not paying enough attention to sports.
