Fair enough. I saw it in a tweet from some BBC journalist, but I can't find it anymore so maybe she deleted it because it was wrong.

Are you sure they aren't counting freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, butterfly and relays as 5 different sports to win that one too in the way they had total medals to be above China in the table?

They have more golds now anyway.

I know but it was funny seeing how desperate they were to be top ranked.

On the one hand, that is ****ed, but on the other, I can't stop laughing.

Good to see my beautiful Guyana ?? ending with 0 medals.
Next time we’ll get them in coconut tree climbing and mango pelting.

Whatever it takes!!!
I am given to understand that our TN villages are just as good at that. My dad still tells me tales of his prowess in those stuff and swimming across the Cauvery that was flowing beyond his backyard. Its the real life man. ?

Just cartoonishly villainous. Dick Dastardly would do this.

It is ridiculous that Phelps has as many gold medals as Jason Kenny, Laura Kenny, Bradley Wiggins and Chris Hoy put together.

Now the 2020 Olympics are done and dusted, your thoughts on which sports should be dropped and which should be included.
My thoughts:
DROP - Walking (half of them are running IMO), Rhythmic gymnastics (dancing around with balls, hoops, ribbons to music is an art form but not sport), Synchronised swimming (water ballet ... why don't men compete?)
INCLUDE - T20 cricket (if baseball is in for the US and Japan, this should be in for Commonwealth countries), Darts (if shooting and archery are in, why not darts?).
Other random thoughts:
Enjoyed the mixed relays. Too many varieties of canoeing. Liked the rock climbing but not sure about boulder climbing.
BMX was OK but skateboarding? What next? Breakdancing? Too many varieties of martial arts.

Skateboarding is hard as **** and takes incredible patience and dexterity to be good at. Not sure what's wrong with it being in the Olympics other than old people having rocks for brains.

Surely if your complaint is too many varieties of something swimming is first on the chopping block.

I never said it was. It was my "What next?" question.
