We all know he is a sexist pig, luckily Thomas Bach will come to personally execute him

 

I'm sure Bach would prefer as many women around him as possible!

Ugh these champs suck in terms of finding videos of events...an hour later and I still can't find a Youtube video or tweet with a video in it, apart from some geoblocked stuff from Canada or France..

He wants to introduce a new event, women's Bach-stroke .

And videos of that are not that hard to find. I don't really get the point  

 

Barcelona 1992 was 25 years ago, but so what?

Exactly, 25 years and no progress made

I'm a bit split on mixed relays. On one hand it gives some of the smaller nations an opportunity to field a team, but on the other hand it's redundant to have both a mixed and a gendered relay. I guess I'm fine with them at the World Championships, but at the Olympics it should be one or the other. Though if I had my way the 4x200m relay and 800m freestyle events would be dropped and the 50m back, breast, and fly would be added.

 

Here's hoping for another relay medal tomorrow. It's a shame the girls didn't win one at the Olympics and that we can't clone Penny Oleksiak so she can swim the free and fly.
