Umm…they were dogging matches for favorable matchups. If it were points shaving/gambling, I’d have a problem, but really, it happens in the NFL (“We clinched the playoff spot, let’s rest our guys the next two games!”), NBA, and NHL every year.
badmitton is a game that people play at bbqs. but, dressage is a sport? horse dancing is a sport? or, how is shooting (pistol, rifle, skeet) a sport? i thought that was skill. military thinks that is a skill. an important skill if you are sniper. or, how about horse jumping a sport? don’t understand that, because isn’t the horse the thing jumping over the fence, not the rider? if that is true, let’s have riders on bikes jumping over stuff at the olympics, and not at the xgames. or drivers in souped up cars jumping over stuff at the olympics, and not at the xgames or at a monster truck rally.
I was absolutely shocked and outraged when I learned of this scandal. I mean, who the hell decided a yuppie lawn game should be in the Olympics??? Did they play that before or after Olympic croquet?
