"Leo Messi not staying at FC Barcelona
Despite club and player reaching an agreement and their clear intention to sign a new contract today, this cannot happen because of financial and structural obstacles"

- 'certain sports' is beach volley. if men had to play in those it would be fair.uan
- not sure what the controversy is, it shouldn't be mandated, let them wear what they want, but most recreational players choose to wear a bikini anyway_niko
- but girls gymnastics has always been creepy, never understood that uniform._niko
- @_niko well you can't really swim or play basketball in a suitgrafician
- Also in swimming, (< that is a polo team btw) you're not allowed to wear anything else because you can cheat real easy...grafician
- ...wearing a full-body swim suit that reduces friction and saves you a few seconds to even break Phelps' world record!grafician
- Also the scandal was about a team wearing shorts instead of bikinis which was totally fine in that sport's context
Pink offered to pay their fine!grafician - https://www.cbsnews.…grafician
- So no, you can't wear anything you like: https://abcnews.go.c…grafician
- The controversy is men have to wear long long shorts that stop at 10cm above the knees. Women bikinis with a max. side length of 10cm. For the same sport.uan
- When they invented beach volley the argument was to make it more attractive for tv broadcasts and it came through. It's only fair to change that rule.uan
- Anyway, imo, they should all perform naked, as it was in the antiquity.uan
- feminism used to mean the right to show as much skin as men and not be judged, now feminism means covering up as much as possible I guess. so much for progress_niko
- That only is true if you think men should be the norm, which is a unilateral idea. Feminism is more about freedom of discrimination.uan
- I don’t think the bikini thing has anything to do with feminism the movement.monospaced

- If you measure golds per capita, China is doing poorly.nb
- Re: China think about it like how huge the competition to represent the CCP at the Olympics and what if you failgrafician
- Kosovo won a gold at some martial arts I believe.
Then again Japan won at skateboarding, so lots of surprisesgrafician - We won silver at fencing after a defeat against China dammit!

So typical of those small cocked fuckfaces like Piers Morgan and Charlie Kirk to pile on Simone Biles. Seriously...fuck them. Why do conservative men get their rocks off with stuff like this? Pathetic.

- USA # 1utopian
- utopian take it seriously please, what if Iran wins next game
shit just got realgrafician - • Lillard 10 pt., 3 rebound
• Durant 11 pt. and fouled out
• TWO PUMP CHUMPS!utopian - Ya what if Iran win next game?pango
- Money on Australia:
http://www.fiba.bask…...grafician - Yeah what if Iran wins? What shit got real? Huh?monospaced
- I’d put money down that ANY current NBA team would destroy any Olympic team on the planet if allowed.monospaced
- ^ Obviously. Team USA is a bunch of disinterested Americans treating it like All Star weekend. It's been pretty obvious throughout.garbage
- Going from the Bubble to the quick season, these dudes aren't concerned with Olympic gold. They get fucked up, and that fucks up the next contract.garbage
- They'll probably lose like they did in 2004, and then maybe we see a Re-Redeem Team at the next Olympics. Maybe.garbage

- Congrats!! :)PonyBoy
- thanks Pony, after almost three decades, everything's right in the hockey universe once again, the habs are in the finals! :)_niko
- They've always been a thorn in my side... :) as a kid they were always fucking w/my Bruins. Gotta say tho—Patrick Roy is still my all-time favorite goalie. <3PonyBoy
- Ah, was wondering if you were a transplanted fan or a new knights fan :) Come on, if Bill Burr can cheer for the habs surely you can lol_niko
- As much as I also dislike the Bruins, one of my favourite things ever was seeing them come back against the leafs in 2013 in that epic game 7 comeback :)_niko
- and the Roy trade was one of the darkest chapters in Montreal's history, we never recovered really. Until now I guess._niko
- Actually can't really say I dislike the bruins any more, not since they were both in the Adams. Any old school or original 6 team, any real hockey town is great_niko
- Oh dude... as a kid I had nothing but respect for the habs :) The 80's / 90's had some memorable hockey. I'm from New Hampshire originally...PonyBoy
- ... I spent my share of time up in (on) Montreal and even got to a couple games at the Forum. I'm a fan of the Knights as both my bros live in LV...PonyBoy
- ... and we've all followed them since day 1 (I went to 4 of their games their inaugural season and would've went to more if prices didn't go through roof as...PonyBoy
- ... they killed it their first season.PonyBoy
