When he signed on to be a judge on The Voice.

Race Walk is stupid, it just is
When I first saw that pic, I was thinking that it was photoshopped and some sort of joke. Then I read the article and realized, no, this dude is for real. I'm wondering if when he showed up to the shooting venue, that he told someone in the audience to hold his beer for a minute while he proceeded to win the silver.
What's everyone's go-to for up to date results and coverage? NBC is good at explaining these sports to people who have never seen them before or have any interest in seeing who wins beyond the US women's gymnastics team and men's basketball teams.
The Men's 49er (skiff) sailing medal race was postponed due to howling winds but you'll find no mention of that on the biggest Olympics website in this country. C'mon NBC, do better.
Swim off!
For anyone who didn't catch the BMX Freestyle this is a good watch...

Peacock has been pretty good, honestly. This feels like the first Olympics where streaming coverage works the way you imagine it should.
Anyone watching the men vs women boxing??

Seems to have nothing to do with the US transgender athlete debate, which is how it's being framed among certain political circles. Khelif is not transgender, is legally a female, and is identified as such on her passport. She has competed as a woman throughout her career, including the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games where she lost in the quarterfinals. It's the boxing version of Caster Semenya but Semenya won a lot more.
Article that actually explains what is known about this situation:

So I guess the right wing outrage machine has moved from the opening ceremony to something else?
DNA says guy..........no matter what he likes to write down on paper. seems pretty clear.....regardless of your political affiliation
she has been beaten numerous times by other women. her testosterone level is within allowable limits for women. this is pure right wing clownery.
Ok....then HE sucks at boxing.
Plenty of geneticists have weighed in and said it’s not that simple.

US soccer is pissing me off right now. Morocco is completely outplaying them.

i believe there was enough testing that showed the chromosomes of the athletes to be male. (other asian boxer won today 5-0 decision). yes i read article, and especially if this is complicated i would think you would err on the side of safety and support the women. i just don't get many of the democrats on this board who support womans rights yet when it comes to sports there's a different narrative.
You believe there was enough testing? The organization hasn’t even said what testing was done. None of the results of whatever testing may or may not have been done have been made public.

Weird that the women actually fighting against her continue to not have any issue with it:

Guys, there's sports happening.
You gotta hand it to the right-wing (not just here, but around the world) for making a GIANT issue out of something which really isn't. :rolleyes2
