This is the most adorable thing about the Olympics so far. Thanks to kodi vpn for letting me watch all the matches on kodi channels.

Brazilian diver falls out with team mate by bringing canoeist back to shared Olympic Village room for 'marathon sex session'

Proof that the Olympics is as much about sex as it is about sports and money:

Quote:
Around 450,000 condoms have been distributed among athletes in the Olympic Village - three times more than for the London Games in 2012.

The International Olympic Committee said part of the reason was because 100,000 female condoms will be available for the first time, along with 350,000 condoms for men. About 175,000 packets of lubricant are also being supplied.

The IOC said the condoms would encourage 10,500 athletes and staff to practice safe sex.

Pretty safe to say the olympics won't be going back to South America
Good news South America can have the Olympics again because the American swimmers where lying to cover up their douche bag behavior.



Also I don't see whats so wrong about not shaking an opponents hand in Judo. If you see what happens in other combat sports that's nothing.

A Brazilian police official told The Associated Press that American Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte fabricated a story about being robbed at gunpoint in Rio de Janeiro.
Quote:
A Brazilian television network aired surveillance video from the gas station at the time of the incident that appears to show the swimmers in an argument with staff.
Lochte is already on US soil. He probably paid for a flight out of Rio while the other two were on their scheduled flight.

:Popcorn



Ryan Lochte made up Rio robbery story, Brazil police official says - World - CBC News

The men's 200 metre final is tonight at 6:30pm. C'mon Di Grasse, bring home a gold medal!

He needs to put his bromance with Bolt on hold for about 20 seconds and get down to business. LUL

Nabatron 08-18-2016 09:59 AM
they should strip lochte of his medal and use him as an example of how much a fucking retard he is! Also because of his stupid hair as well...

You think Grasse is holding back?


I wonder how much sponsorship money Lochte will lose.

A Rio Games spokesman defended the swimmers, saying they were just kids who were having fun and made a mistake.

Quote:
"These kids tried to have fun, they tried to represent their country to the best of their abilities," Rio 2016 spokesman Mario Andrada told reporters.

"They competed under gigantic pressure. Let's give these kids a break. Sometime you take actions that you later regret. They had fun, they made a mistake, life goes on."
WTF! They aren't 12 years old. Hold adults accountable for their actions. Just because they are Olympians, they aren't above the law.

So Skateboarding, Surfing, Karate, Baseball, Softball, and Sports climbing will all be in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.

Curious to see how the Paralympic games will turn out. Stories are out indicating only 12% of tickets sold and Rio doesn't have enough funding to fly in the athletes and host the games. They spent all their Paralympic funding on the Olympic games.

The country you are competing for pays for the transportation.

Rio Paralympics 2016: Organisers two weeks behind on travel grant payments - BBC Sport

Quote:

Rio 2016's organising committee is two weeks late in paying 8m euros (£7m) in grants to national Paralympic bodies.

The grants cover the travel costs for competing athletes and officials.

...
It is thought as many as 50 nations may be unable to afford to send athletes to the Games, which start on 7 September.
Wealthy countries can probably pay the way for their athletes, but poor countries probably don't give a crap nor can they afford to send their Paralympians.

See this is why women suck.

No man would get mad at his buddy for reasons to do with getting laid. (especially once you look at pictures of her)

But women, they will throw away years of training together and hardwork for petty shit.
