...I actually really like the industrial landscape.

It fits well with the whole big air thing. The industrial landscape has as much to do with a healthy lifestyle as the big air with the Olympics

I think the IOC is starting to fear a boycott. Pound basically said so, and all of sudden Bach wants to share “sad memories” about the 1980 boycott.

imo: Because China is a real shitty country that is the "crybaby" of the planet.

 

But now horror stories are coming out from the genocide taking place of the Uighur people in Northwest China, and the horrible human rights situation there.
