@Eurosport Wake up

Last night Atlanta won the MLS final against Portland. It was live on Eurosport as MLS usually is, with a commentator who's been doing it for 20-25+ years....but last night he was either ignoring the match on purpose or he was just drunk. I watched it this morning and I have never in my life heard a commentator talk so much nonsense and so little about the match I heard him recite a poem about death, stories about Garibaldi, nickel mines in Canada, dirty clothes in the dressing room in his own time as a player, 90 minutes of anecdotes about his life in the football world and the 1-0 was only briefly mentioned..."this is the guy that has the annoying habit to score when I'm talking" and then he went on with his story about referees. The 2-0 was 100% ignored, he did not mention a single word about it. He is now fired, although it's not sure whether he was already fired and he did this out of revenge, or he got fired because of this.

That was one exciting finish

Russia 2 was falling out of the threesome fighting for 2nd and 3rd....my money was safe....and then Nechaevskaya fell in the last meters and Russia 1 missed the podium anyway I am cursed

I'm gonna be mad if Russia 2 keeps Russia 1 off the podium

RIP Sweden

And here as well

Some quick money on Russia 1 getting a podium, almost forgot

I hate weather.

Wait, 'core sports' is actually a thing instead of just a random name we gave to it? How on earth did new additions like rugby sevens and golf make it to the list of 'core sports'?

Not exactly only 'anti-Eastern' if you've read Totallympics well enough the past years

football*

That's also eastern and southern Europeans and some Oceanians

That's three continents with major representation, that's actually not that bad although sadly I'm too lazy to check all current Olympic sports

Congratulations on taking the bait and treating it as serious

Wilnis Who then went on to be on his way to beat a Romanian guy....until he got viciously knocked out in the last half minute

That won't stop stuff like women's Nordic combined.

As someone who doesn't follow the showbizz part of sports that much: what did she do wrong?

@hckosice Fight!

And her teammate Sam Edney didn't want a farewell slide like that but was very much present in the festivities as well, also for him it was goodbye.

Like so many people care about which continent a country is in, everyone who is not their own country's team is the enemy

Glory 62, Road to Rico. A good old-fashioned 8-man tournament in the heavyweights (kickboxing), the winner of which will take on long-time world champion Rico The King of Kickboxing Verhoeven

Ugh, this bullshit about countries that can't be drawn together
