watching sailing on NBC: "Everything is fine" "There has not been one complaint about the water here at rio, the media made it out to be really bad, but not one person has complained. Some of the sailors even have gone on to swim in the water after the event it's so clean" Next segment: "They have helicopters go out in the morning to direct boats where to pick up the garbage that has floated into the circles for sailing" I'm sorry but if you need to direct trash boars by helicopter every morning at your premier beach / sailing venue, then your water isn't clean. Not to mention the water is still full of literal poo poo.. maybe the sail far enough out where it's less brown and lovely.

Possibility: it happened, those guys really were cops, and the Brazilian legal system is retaliating against the guy blowing the whistle? Not likely though. I was suspicious when he claimed they let him keep his phone.

Teddybear posted:I desperately hope we figure out what the gently caress actually happened, because I guarantee it'll be hilarious. The key here is his mom broke the story. So step 1 of the entire night is Lochte telling his mom he was robbed, even though he wasn't. The big question is trying to figure out why the gently caress this would ever happen. Did he run out of money and wanted his mom to think he was robbed so she would send more over to him? Was it the worlds shittiest joke? Either way it's boggling that when confronted by the media, Lochte's reaction is to double down on the story and make poo poo up like it actually happened. Rather than, you know, tell his mom the truth.

Wasn't there about 3-4 others with him? Did they all just decide to join in for funsies? I'm definitely thinking illegal activities.

A loving human leg from a murdered dude. Although maybe nobody literally complained about it out loud so the statement there can stand. Everything is fine.

German Olympic federation showing their fun side: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-37105796 "It looked as though they completed a fun run and not [an] Olympic [race]," German Athletics Federation director Thomas Kurschilgen told reporters. He argued that it was "disrespectful and a slap in the face to all the other athletes in the German team". Public relations should not come before the interest of the national team, he argued. JFC, lighten up Germany!

The Brazilian cops are very corrupt and I am suspect of anything they say. On the other hand Lochte is reportedly a gigantic douche bag so I am conflicted.

If they got held up by cops, it's quite possible they just asked for a bribe (or a "fine") and let them go.

I'll admit, I was kinda hoping the hurdler's roid rage hit and he just powered through those puny obstacles. Horse picture is pretty great (hoping they're not dead). Hope male gymnast isn't dead. Dying kinda ruins it.

Serious question, has there ever been an instance of a medal recipient being booed during an award ceremony before, or is that French guy a first?

*Knock on son's hotel room door* Head of Irish Olympic Committee: "Well son, looks like the entertainment has arriv-" Apparently he was naked when he answered the door Also the Brazilian police just do not give a gently caress about lawyer-client confidentiality and posted a letter from his solicitor. The letter instructs Hickey to tell the Irish Sports Minister in an upcoming meeting regarding the arrest of an Irish Touter, to shove it up his rear end or face legal action. There'd be holy loving war in Ireland if the Guards pulled that kind of poo poo. People on Irish forums are loving it because there's loving nothing the Irish political/legal class can do about this. This is what normally happens in Ireland. This guy is on the IOC Executive Board by the way, as well as being the President of the European Olympics Committees, pretty much the most senior official in European sport. The media is just reporting him as the Irish OC head though. School Nickname fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Aug 17, 2016 |

Holy poo poo you guys, the world DID end in 2012, we just didn't notice. Four years after the end of the world and everything is devolving into chaos. The Rio Olympics, like everything else in 2016, are just a symptom of the problem. How could these things happen in a well ordered universe, I ask you.
