heywoodu 13,562 Posted August 3, 2021 #72 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Oh what a final! This becoming a 500m is disgusting (after being an Olympic event since 1936!), this was awesome... 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!

Vektor 3,195 Posted August 3, 2021 #74 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Cuba helping the US to win the medal table. Amazing final. Cuba is still not completely down in the world of sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike skateboarding and break dance there's zero chance Next Gen kids will watch canoeing IMO. Another case when the chase for mythical new fans will be a total failure IMO. We all know the TikTok generation doesn't give a damn about tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is bullshit, this sport should be about endurance, 1000m should be the standard distance like 2000m in rowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the chief excuse I hear. Wait until e-sports becomes an Olympic sport - like a tetris online or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
