"Tokyo Olympics Rescheduled for July to August 2021 Due to Coronavirus"



They really had no choice. It'll be truly astounding when we look back on this and the magnitude of every that has changed.

First time since WWII in '40 and '44.

The Olympics had dragged their feet making this decision which was obvious. They wanted the money. This will impact on the Commonwealth Games which were due to take place in Birmingham.

I watched a vid of an entire marble race today. I'm desperate. I think networks are dropping the ball by not picking up 'live' sports or activities that don't require close contact. Bowling. Darts. Skeet Shooting . Drag racing. Home Run derby. Bikini contests. Pie eating competitions. Ffs get creative people!

They are rich beyond compare and the grass season is very short so there was little choice in the matter.

The only sporting event I don’t mind being cancelled is the olympics. I feel bad for the athletes but the IOC is such a corrupt organization I’m glad they have a time out.

The rest of this is really sucking. Some good news hospital numbers out of New York just started decreasing. Too early to say it’s a trend but hopefully.

Spain's death rate has gone down as well.

They did a wrestling ppv apparently with no audience. Saw a clip earlier and it was pretty surreal. It's all scripted to begin with but can't imagine the 'athletes' can be happy about a flat empty atmosphere. Said it earlier but why not do wide scale use of webcams or virtual feeds and crank up the volume.
