I don't agree with either practice in Sport Set....The Olympics used to be amatuer sports people only....Now a Gold medal equals a huge payday???

WORLD — In keeping with the Olympics' commitment to sexual violence and Satan worship, the International Olympic Committee announced today that the 2028 games would be held in the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah.

"They're a natural fit for us," explained Olympic Committee director Max Durgen. "Violent sexual debauchery forced upon unsuspecting visitors? Check. Openly mocking the Lord God? Check. They'll be hard pressed to top Paris, but I think they're up to the task."

According to sources, the Olympic Committee has sought to ensure that fun games between nations meant to promote peace and friendship also destroy the innocence of any children who might be watching. "If you're not sexualizing a little kid who's just trying to watch his country's swim team, what are you even doing?" asked marketing chair Steph Reginald. "Everyone needs to see Jesus mocked when they're wanting to watch gymnastics, and that mockery must include visible testicles. It's what the Olympics are all about, and that's why Sodom and Gomorrah will be the perfect host cities."

After years of being a pariah over their history of sexual violence, Sodom and Gomorrah have seen a dramatic change in fortune over the past decade. "People have really come around," said Sodom mayor Bangs Magill. "We're really excited to welcome so many visitors, and show them that famous Sodom hospitality we're known for."

At publishing time, France had decided to give Sodom a run for its money by doing a closing ceremony featuring a live virgin sacrifice to Beelzebub.

Here is the complete list of new events for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games:

Synchronized Surrendering: A beautiful French tradition going back millennia.

Women's armpit hair growing: Gross.

Shotput the homo off the roof: France's new migrant population has them in real position to challenge Iran.

Freestyle losing to Hitler and waiting for America to save us: France once again the heavy favorite.

100-meter Jew chasing: A lot like the 100m dash, but with the added element of chasing down Jews.

Downhill luge away from the suicide bomber: Motivating.

Team not showering: Why, France?

Cross country being obnoxious and pretending like you don't understand English: Might as well give France the gold right now.

Updated. France moved to 2 x US not moving.

US is getting a lot of 2nd and 3rd places. 3 gold out of 12 medals.

All top 6 countries have a higher rate of gold v total medals.

Australia has the best conversion rate 4 gold out of 6 medals. Japan 4 out of 7.

China moves up.

Japan has moved to the lead.

US is falling behind and its gold medal ratio is 15% gold to total medals. The UK is poised to pass US in gold.

OMG that usa swimmer Katie Ledecky, in the 1500m was finishing last lap on her own in the pool and others were still doing 2nd last lap going opposite way.
She wasn’t even puffing or out of breath.

Keep an eye on that one.

UK has 4 x gold and is on the verge of overtaking the USA.

Is this the end of US Olympic hegemony?

Looking at the medal tally USA have heaps of silver and bronze.

Not the way that Bronze was hard fought for… it was like gold to them rugby gals …. One team have medals to show for it another team none.

I thought it was very moving to see an Irish swimmer Daniel Wiffen win gold in swimming…

How many gold medals has Ireland won in swimming?
three swimming gold medals
Ireland is reveling in its Paris aquatic moment. Going into the men's 800 free, the country has just three swimming gold medals in its history; they were all won by Michelle Smith at the 1996 Games.

Tonight BMX finals…

China moved up to 7 gold.

UK 4 gold is sneaking up on the US to push US down the list.

Women’s BMX freestyle, Oz got a bronze, she was amazing…
But China got gold and what a performance… wow!
Here she (Deng Yawen) is (not at the Olympics but elsewhere with her strong faultless style)

US is still languishing and its success rate has dropped under 15%.

News clips from US MSM gloriously praise US as the leading performer at the Olympics which is the opposite of the truth.

In fact the USA is the leading loser at 7th rank in Gold medals.

Because they have the most medals it is not a sign of being a winner, it is just a sign of the fact they have more Olympic competitors than any other country and therefore enter more events and enter multiple competitors in events.

China is the best performer according to gold medals relative to team size.

At the current 16.7% rate of gold to total medals the USA might not win more than 20 gold medals.

Olympic team sizes:

1. United States - 592
2. France - 573
3. Australia - 460
4. Germany - 428
5. Japan - 403
6. China - 388
7. Spain - 383
8. Italy - 371
9. Great Britain - 327
10. Canada - 315
11. Brazil - 274
12. Netherlands - 258

I just watched that race walker event… it’s so weird to watch… it looks uncomfortable… like they all want to break out in a run!

Anyway… our Aussie gal Jemima Montag got a bronze medal.

China moved to 11 gold. US 6 but still languishing.

Gold medals per 100 atheletes.
1. South Korea 4.23
2. China 2.83
3. Japan 1.99
4. UK 1.83
5. Australia 1.52
6. France 1.4

US moved up by 3 gold.

US is still heading for its lowest number of gold medals in the past 60 years. Since 21 gold in Rome 1960 when Australia was the top nation in swimming.

Australian gold medalists in Rome. Australian swimmers won 5 of Australia's 8 golds.

The videos keep getting deleted from YouTube - this one works for now:

Here's the full fight:

UK moved to 7 gold.

UK sneaked up to 9 golds, threatening to displace US from second position.

China holds the lead.

France and Australia leapfrog the US.

Funny

UK has moved ahead of USA.

USA appears to be collecting mainly silver and bronze lately.

Korea picked up one gold.

En the contrary, Ltyc. The team USA has more medals than team Australia. Participation medals matter.

The USA is sharing the medal wealth with other countries. Good on them for doing so.

Japan moved to 19 gold, one ahead of Australia.

The Netherlands is sneaking up on the UK.

Japan move to 20 gold.

It would have been alright for the Americans if the Chinese weightlifters, Livti WeiWeights and Miua HauHau did not win gold for their events.

Maybe Chalmers could get his gold medal, when the IOC find out that Pan Zhanle had a miniature outboard motor shoved up his arse, during the 100 meters swimming final.

It is okay. I have had to put up with a female that acts like a male to attract other lesbians and fend off males. Those type of situations even things out.

Phlaptards...

I could flip off the crowds with a gunslinger salute and not be disqualified for the controlled chaotic display.
