2018 Olympics

Can’t wait!

I like watching the diving and gymnastics.

Can they at least determine if the host city is actually capable of hosting it or if the overdone facilities will be used for something effective once the olympics leave, cause much of time time it just becomes run-down junk that likely interferes negatively with native wild life. Like I get that much of the time its partially city planning that causes these problems of run down facilities that were built solely to host the olympics. So maybe they should invesigate if proposed cities actually have the means to host said event without causing major economic destruction to everyone who will be working on the procject. I Mean I have a cousin who may beccome an olympic swimmer but I still cannot support the olympics due to the main companies who do...I mean Nestle? They are like one of the worst when it comes to adding to much sweetner/sugar So olympics is supposed to be some kind of standard of health...yet they have freaking Nestle and other companies like that mainly supporting it. Companies who push unhealthy processed food on the poor.


Also 'arrowhead' water is Nestle, don't be fooled and buy that s**t...the CEO thinks water should be a paid for commodity and not something available to the general populace. I have been boycotting Nestle for around a year due to that....lol even considred writing a letter to 7-ll chains asking them to quit carring nestle water.

But yeah that is why I can wait, I mean how can someone be an olympic trainer and cater to something like Nestle water for instance which has no real health benefit. I remember last time I watched the olympics most of the sponser companies were places like nestle where high calory mostly filler food is encouraged. Yay go to the olympics and have people trying to sell you the most unhealthy snacks possible as a way to 'promote athletes' and tons of people will just buy it up without question. I simply don't see the point, how does fatty snack/junk food promote 'athletes'?


I mean nothing like olympians being talked about as if they were already champions before the event even starts and questionable ethics to how they arranged it...it 'looked' so cool it must be valid, I suppose just as valid as nazis given the 'seig heil' sign in germany after nazisim was outlawed.

Maybe the olympics should do better about how they select, last year I belive some douchy americans got in some trouble for vandilization of some foreign gas station. I mean I can buy maybe they did not realize how severe the charges were and tried writing it off but sounds more like they think americas aways get away with tings in foreign countreis. well no half the time they get arrested because they figured their 'american' status made them more valuble for capturing not that they necessarily have any answers.

Does anyone know where they are hosted this year?

I think this is going to be the first time I don't watch any of the Olympics. There's too much stuff I disagree with that's going on with them this year.
