I was going to start a separate thread as there are a few controversial things getting a bit of attention. (super swims??? and Boxing shenanigans)
And with the main event kicking off now (Athletics)
...
Do we need to do that or just let this become a more generic thread?
Is there the interest?
Problem may be that most of the posts have been about basketball so I'll leave it to DJC (as the thread starter) to decide whether we need a separate thread for other Olympic topics.
The basketball tragics would like a separate thread
There's plenty going on at the Olympics though; triathlon postponed because of too much dog sh1t in the Seine, China picking on Kyle Chalmers, boxing controversy, Jessica Fox, the commentator sacked for "sexist" language, huge waves in Teahupo’o, the removal of the Australian surfing judge, new "sports", the laid back Turkish pistol shooter, and much more.
