Not all cozy in the olympic village

   Not all fun...   Athletes from all nations complaining..

   Seems like the hotels provided athletes, are more like prisons than hotels.  Confined to rooms, athletes have no place to practice their skills and keep sharp.

   The food is apparently so substandard that some athletes are truly suffering.  ...Must be a commie thing, the trays for these athletes are looking much like Michelle Obama's school lunches..

Well, it IS China.

Ahh! The mystery meat again. Might be monkey or dog for all we know.  Drop in some MRE’s, they would be better than this. If the chinks didn’t get to them first. One thing is  for sure, these a athlete’s are finding out what it’s like to live under communism, and bring home stories about what its like. And this isn’t even as bad as what it really is.

I don't much care. The Chinese have killed millions with their "china virus" and we shouldn't even be over there.
But the athletes want to play,  so play and quit whinin.

Our $1 trillion debt to China should be null and void to pay for Covid.  All other western nations that China has their debt should also be null and void.  Then China will be hurting expecting at least interest money that won't be coming in.  Also all Chinese products should have a tariff on them to pay for Covid, from the entire world.  Communism in China might then collapse like it did in eastern Europe.  Russia is now not really capitalist but not really free either.  Kind of in between.

China owns some 70+% of the home, and business loans it the United States.

And it doesn't even look good. Give a Chinaman a big ,hot sauce ,beef and bean jalapeno extra cheese burrito. Now that's eating a meal, especially the ones out here. And they are as big as a large subway sandwich. Watch his face when he bites into that lol. " Yankee dog you try kill me ?" Naw just lighting you up a bit.

I think the meat is more akin to eating Chinese!

U.S.A. Should have boycotted chinavirus games.

[ironglow]

Don't these Olympiads come into town with their own coaches, therapists, and nutrition teams, with vitamins, supplements, protein shakes and smoothees? The cafeteria is for the mortals and hungry media.
.

  Apparently not !  I should expect that if the athletes knew they would be imprisoned while there and fed Michelle Obama meals...they should never have agreed to go.
    Nancy says "don't hurt the dick-tater's feelings"..I suspect we will hear some horror stories time they are back home for a while..

[ironglow]

Nope. These athletes are fully supported and with a small entourage team. I've seen the support firsthand at the Burke Mtn alpine race school (Vermont) and these athletes get the best.
.

   ...But does the entourage and all needed food/supplies, head to Beijing with them?  ...And if skiiers or skaters don't have free 24 hour access to snow & ice, how do they make up for  that ?

I don't care.

I don't care.

Neither do i.

These super athletes work their asses off to compete. That is what they care about. It is unfair to the elite athletes of the world as they deserve a fair and impartial playing  field to compete without political bias and bull squat. They. The elite athletes have earned a place to impartially compete by their hard work and training. Any. Interference in that negates the competition and voids any propped up winner and all know it regardless of a smug and smiling regime... Eat Shaa ittt Xi...

[Dee]

I don't care.

Neither do i.

If they don't like the rules, go get a job that actually produces something of value, or is useful.
