Elaine is 29. She has one more Olympics in her. In fact she may be still be able to peak in Paris....

jamaica track is so weak at the moment minus Elaine

I don't need all that or to make all these concessions for the Olympics. Why do I need some VPN. I ain't watching no weirdo xxx or nothing brazy like that. The only race I else I think I wanna see is the 400w hurdles. Sydney ready to kill her own WR I don't think daliah(sp?) can see her

nbcsports.com would have been all you needed,

it's a simple enough stream that they don't promote because they want to increase peacock subscriptions

The Olympics shouldn’t come out with an intersex division. Being intersex is extremely complex and it’s not prevalent enough to support a whole division. @Rhakim said it best, just apply one standard to all events, I think it should be 5mmol as that also closes the door to trans fukkery, but I’m no expert on the subject.

but I feel for these women who have been raised a female, have outward facing female genitalia, being told they’re not women. shyt is way complicated

Because some of us want to see who the actual best in the world is?

NBC had no problem building up these swimming cacs from the cookie cutter white family . It seemed they all had a 5 min story and photos of them as kids and majority flopped


For black track athletes? Where’s the five minute montage on Sydney and dahlia? Mu? Lyles? Knight? Gabby Thomas?

Or the Olympics app...that’s what I’ve been using

Oh I agree with you but NBC execs seem to think Americans only care about Americans winning or reality tv-like drama.

I was reading earlier this year that these games will pretty much make or break whether Peacock breaks even. Peacock was suppose to launch with the Olympics opening but they the pandemic pushed it back.

Edit: I think you still have to have a cable or YouTube TV/Hulu TV sub to get those NBC Sports app streams.

On Aug 3rd 1936 Jesse Owens won his 1st Gold Medal

I'm gonna need to see some blood work on Christine Mboma

It don't make sense the 4th quarter she got in the 200m at her height. Her legs should be to short to box with the gawdz

 

[EndGame]

nah Olympics should come out with intersex events


Mboma only 18 and running these times and never even trained for the 200

If nothing changes mboma gonna be running like 21 flat and ish

I thought she was some over 30y/o veteran.

I already knew who Tara Davis dated based on her cowboy hat and boots intro

Have to say, Ese Brume was looking kinda cute rocking her natural hair during long jump finals. Well done for rocking your hair and getting bronze.

Here's what BBC Naija Pidgin has to say about her
