....about time.

up to 3 members under investigation now... one thought to be 14... wow

They should also investigate the insane scores the Chinese get even after completely blowing a routine.

yea like how liuken on the uneven bars i think it was... complete rob with that stupid tiebreaker shit

The IOC needs to start gathering the ages of the athletes instead of relying on the individual countries to do so. It'll never happen, though, since the IOC is one of the worst run organizations in all of sports. If the allegations are found to be true, they should fine the shit out of the Chinese government or whoever is in charge of their Olympic team. It's tough to fine or strip the athletes of their medals because they're just puppets to their country.

yea i was listening that they just took her passport as proof of age, wtf is that. how unreliable is that. freaking unbelievable. a passport can be faked so easily, especially by a government desperate to get an athlete in there.

I forgot about that crap. I was referring to the balance beam where the Chinese girl could barely stay on the beam and got the best score of the round. It seems they only excel in sports that require judging.

thats another one. for sure.

Did you expect much more?

The IOC will never do anything to the big countries that "wine and dine" then to get the games in their contry. they would rather go after so sprinter from jamaca and bash him for being excited after winning gold. the IOC is the most corupt organization i have seen since Enron.

Then there was that chinese bitch that fucking landed on her knees in the vault finals and somehow still knocked hot ass Alicia Sacramone out of the bronze position. Fuckin' bulllshit. I think hotness/cup size should have some weight in the final scores.

You're saying that you'd kick her out of bed?
Gymnast = flexible. Think about it.

Yea, I mean, what the fuck? Why criticize Bolt in any way? That guy got me to watch the sprints, and I'm not really all that into the track and field events. So he threw his arms up before he was done with his race. Big deal. Is that any different than all the showboating that goes on in the boxing (which sucks because of the scoring system, IMO)? Or the team events? Bolt has probably done more for the track and field events than we've seen in a while. Maybe since Carl Lewis.

The IOC doesn't care about anything besides the money they take in. That's why they allowed China to lie for years and years and then awarded them the Olympics. That's also how London got them for 2012. Now London has no money to build all the facilities they were talking about, and are going to scale down their original plans to fit their budget. What a joke.
