The Olympics is a place where people pay to watch grown men competing to see who runs 100 METERS the fastest. So while the universe is busily creating suns, moons, beaches, lakes, rivers, oceans, without an audience in total silence two grown men are in the middle of a HUGE noise running 100 METERS which they trained 4 years for.

And they're having it during a pandemic and it's sponsored by McDonalds which is food which makes you fat.

Watching the Olympics is like people watching other people play EverQuest instead of playing it themselves.

I'm sorry but the whole thing is asburd and so was that mayweather vs logan paul fight ; boxing is already incredibly stupid but they took stupidity to a whole new level with that one.

The world has finally gone mad and the face masks and Olympics are proof.

The Olympics is old world war games.

Throw a javelin
Running
Horsemanship
Rowboat, war boats
Karate
Fencing
Chess
Shooting
Archery
Etc.

I appreciate these events by thinking about them like that.

Initially, Olympic competition was limited to foot races,
but later a number of other events were added, including wrestling, boxing,
horse and chariot racing, and military competitions. The pentathlon,
introduced in 708 B.C., consisted of a foot race, the long jump,
discus and javelin throws, and wrestling.

I also like watching American Gladiator but I will not watch the Paul fight thing mentioned.
