Following the Olympics in Rio?

[texmaster]

I follow women's beach volleyball. Does that count?

The Egyptian dude refused to shake hands with his Israeli competitor. Nice.

How come professional basketball players, professional golfers and professional hockey players are allowed in the Olympics?

I thought it was just for amateur sport.

The olympics are fixed.
I was watching the boxing match yesterday while sitting in the doctors office and the judges "unanimously " agreed that the Russian fighter won. There's no way. It makes me think Sepp Blatter is running the show!
Right after that I was called in to see the doctor for my appointment regarding high blood pressure problems, lol.

Yep.
This is why I no longer follow sports.

Today the French medal winner was "booed".

Tough crowd, maybe they got mugged or didn't get the bottled water.
