Disagree...until the chinks come clean with the COVID scam we should have nothing to do with them. They got (are getting) their payoff from Fauxci! Eff’em

[MinorityRepublican]

It’s in China. They’ve gone totalitarian with the whole COVID thing. So NHL players are better off not going.

This could actually get amusing—if nobody showed up in China due to Covid.....

On the down side, the men will not be able to win any women’s sports contests there...

;-)

Everyone is worried that if a bunch of players came back from China sick they will lose the rest of the season.

[CivilWarBrewing]

That’s what is said publicly. But perhaps the NHL is giving the instigators of the pandemic a GIANT MIDDLE FINGER FOR THE OLYMPICS.

[colorado tanker]

Can’t say I’m opposed to that. :-))

[Antoninus]

Vax is working great, ain’t it?

FWIW, I'll probably say the same if the Olympics were in Australia. Sad.

[cowboyusa]

Good

[alternatives?]

Given the way many governments have reacted to Covid, how many players will want to play for their country in the future?

[Rebelbase]

NHL players take a stand against anal swabs.

[VideoDoctor]

The NHL... hockey for "Snowflakes!"

[MinorityRepublican]

You're right. But honestly they Olympics are lame. If it's up to me, it would be for amateurs only. Age limit is up to 21. Your turn 22, you become inegilble.

We have the World Cup for soccer and the World Baseball Classic for baseball. Other sports can do the same for professionals.

[Major Matt Mason]

Yes, if they get the coof while in China, they'll be stuck there well past the end of the Olympics. No player wants that, nor do the teams since it would be the best players in the league heading to China.

There was a time when the Olympics were only for amateurs. Of course “amateurs“ included members of the Soviet army whose only job was to practice their Olympic sport. Perhaps the sweetest victory I ever watched was the year that our truly amateur Olympic hockey team beat the Soviet union team. “The miracle on ice“

To me, that's cheating if they want it that bad, they can have it. That's how I see it.

“The miracle on ice“

That's why it's a classic.

This Olympics can have fake athletes competing in front of fake crowds!
