Really interesting progression by the guy from Bulgaria, but in swimming no one even seems to care anymore, its like the wild west a century ago, you can do whatever you want.

Russians also dont seem to give a shit, destroying their PBs left and right, but why should they, FINA and IOC sent a clear signal that they dont really give a shit either, just dont do the doping too obvious, because it will bring too much negative attention. I think they learned from what happend to cycling after Armstrong. People buy everything, they just want to be entertained, just dont catch too many (famous) athletes, because then people will finally lose interest.

King is even worse than Efimova, worst possible result. With Efimova at least she doesnt deny the doping, you know where your at with her, but the way King acts, she must be very sure that she will never be caught, which sadly isnt that unrealistic, considering that Hardy was probably the last american swimmer that was (accidentally) caught.

Well, doesn't have to be about doping. For example, would you also cheer for Kilty if some hypotetical crowd was booing him for his behaviour and cheering hard for Mekhissi-Benabbad?

 

Nope, I find astronomical assholes worse than someone who used doping (I still doubt the fact a world class athlete used doping is so rare) so I'd absolutely never ever cheer for any of these two

Take a plane to Toronto, start sucking something random in Toronto. Duh.

I think the choice of music is pretty good in Bukarest and the anthems sound pretty good too, for example the british anthem didnt sound as annoying as normally, so good job Hungary. I think swimming still could make this more of an event, why not for example have a Starbucks and a McDonald's in there or a guy selling popcorn/hot dogs like in the NBA for example. If this should really become pure show, then they need to sell it like that.

Never thought of doing so  Sounds like a good idea, I'll need my Algerian friend to buy me a plane ticket, first
