Yeah, I had the same discussion with friends here. If it's judged, it's usually MIS-judged or manipulated. Boxing, Wrestling, Gymnastics, Diving, Judo, Tae-Kwon-Do....all a joke (not the ability or the effort, but the judged results). No integrity in any of it. I'll take track and field anyday, and even cycling, ping pong, rowing, badminton, archery or trap shooting over all of judged nonsense.

BTW, WTF happened to the Merkan archery team? We used to be the best by a mile, just 2-3 olympics ago.

"The height of [Olympic event stupidity] is rhythmic gymnastics and synchronized swimming."

Hey, something we can agree on. Synchronized diving is not that much different, although it involves a gymnastic skill.
