Haven’t watched much of it because it was clear NBC was pushing the whole homosexual agenda before the games even started.. with their vinette adds with the gay athlete guy claiming how he carries his “community” clearly meaning his sexual orientation, while listing what he carries to the olympics.
I don’t give a flying expletive what your politics are, whether I agree with them or not, I really don’t care, as far as I’m concerned I have no need to KNOW what your politics, let alone your sexual peccadillos are as an athlete or a performer... Go out there and perform, and I may watch and cheer you on, but I am not so brain dead as to think because you are good at tossing a ball, that what you feel, think or say about anything beyond your sport, or form of entertainment matters or is of import in the least to me.
Some of these Athletes think they have something important to say, when in reality other than when it comes to their chosen sport, anything they say has no more import than any other person walking down the street.
Rippon was without question the worst of the worst, clearly not up to the level he should have been to be there, and then just made it all about him all the time, and the media happily paraded him around as some poster child for something important, when in fact, there have been many gay skaters that have come before this want to be diva, and they actually won gold. But they weren’t out there making it all about them, and didn’t define themselves by the fact they can’t understand tab a, slot b and basic biology.
He was a flat out embarrassment on every level.
And then there’s the US Men’s Bobsled team, that seems to think using former football players is a good idea.
One of the bobsledders is named, Hakeem Abdul-Saboor, his team finished 21st.
He certainly is no Brian Boitano, and say what you will, there was nothing feminine about Brian's skating, despite his orientation. And Brian pretty much kept his mouth shut about it, even though, everybody knew.
