Are these the least hyped, least cared about Olympics of all time? I realize most people already don't care about winter Olympics, and the Olympics in general are dying, but I don't think anyone even realizes these are happening next week
Tokyo haooened during covid with no public
>>153199261yeah but i feel those ones at least have an excuse
>>153199151No, that's still the Beijing winter olympics.Zero hype, zero staying power, only thing anyone remembers is that some of the ice skaters were cute (as is the case every time at the winter olympics)
>>153199295no Russians means who cares?
>>153199151The only winter Olympic sport I mildly care about is hockey and there’s no reason to watch anything but the USA-Canada gold medal game. I don’t need to see Canada beat Latvia 9-1 in the group stage
Nobody wants to see a bunch of Americans spinning around on snowboards for 50 identical but somehow different events
>>153199342No steroids
>>153199467Latvia are not in the same group as Canada
>>153199151Sports in general is dying.
>>153199295>only thing anyone remembers is that some of the ice skaters were cuteThey were cute!
>>153199151Are there any new events this year?
>>153200439Yes, ski mountaineering makes it's debut
>>153200193The universe is dying
A bunch of bongs larping as jamicans because they watched “cool runnings” once on television
>>153200604what is that, racing up a mountain on skis?
>>153200624Cool Runnings is so good
>>153199342Adelia Petrosyan, Mariya Seniuk, Anastasia Gubanchik, Ekaterina Cutiekova, and Samodelchki will all be there. Still more Russians than any other country.
>>153200624Black people can’t stand it when something is not about them lolThe Winter Olympics should be a safe space for pale people.
>>153200225Frolyash the only one shown still competing. My poor Usachka.
>>153199151Who hypes up the winter Olympics? I enjoy watching them but I suppose it depends on what country you're in if people generally care.
>>153200873People from countries that actually experience winter enjoy them. Which means that 99% of the posters on this board could never.
Everything is the worst thing of all time if you were born yesterday
>>153199151Winter Olympics are always garbage, this one is extra irrelevant because stuff is actually happening in the world
>>153202176That's usually the point of sport, to take your mind off all the shit. A nice escapism.
>>153202220Olympics during the cold war were dick measuring contests between superpowers
it's a beautiful region during the summer
>>153199295i only remember the chinese putting athletes in containment camps
>>153199151Poolympics main appeal was novelty and it lost that when I could reliably and verifiably call someone from Uzbekistan a nigger and have him respond all within a minute
>>153202312True, but generally people just love to watch other humans compete and take their minds off their troubles.
I am part of the target audience and I could care less
>>153202366All social networks are built around the concept that stuff making you seethe generate more engagement though
>>153202418>I could care less
there is never any olympic hypeand then everyone realizes "oh shit, opening ceremonies are tonight???"and then everyone (in countries that get snow) gets excited and locks in and has a great 2 weeks
>>153199151No Eve Muirhead, no hype.
TOTAL SHITALIAN DEATH
>>153199151The last Winter Olympics sucked because only dick sucking CCP turds were only allowed to watch them in person.
>>153199151Olympics and World Cup are dying because the polarworld is coming
Wait, did they really ban Russians from this one?
>>153202343Didn't they also put drugs in the athletes' food so they would fail drug tests?
It’s not for you browns, you got your stonerboard NA x-games shit events to reel you in which no real winter country give a shit about
>>153203174They're back, only as individual athletes. No Russian flag and anthem for them.
>>153199295I only remember that they put some event in an industrial zone
hahahahaha what the fuvk? there's a WINTER olympics now?? hahaha what the fuck that's so dumb. what do they do, prance around in the snow? 5v5 snowball fight? 100m sprint with tennis rackets on their feet? just like the ancient greeks used to do, on the famously snowy pelipperenese peninsula. ahhh, the olympics, when hercules built the greatest snowman in all of antiquity in the time allotted and got a 9.7 from athena herself. whats next? the autumn olympics? diving into piles of leaves or the 4x4 connect 4 relay because it's too rainy outside? hahaha fuckin winter olympics, that's ridiculous
>>153202922Precisely this. I can't stand threads that say, "This sporting event is only two months away WHY IS THERE NO HYPE YET?!?!?" Nigga I can't even remember what I posted here yesterday.
If you care so little then you don't have to come and shit up our general, which is a good thing
>>153208496What does it matter to you, cow urine enthusiast. Your country can't compete in either the winter or summer Olympics.
>>153203532Or the flag of the country they up and bounced to. Lotta blue eyed sporting people from Boratland lately.
>>153199151I will not care about this (unless we win, which is increasingly unlikely)
I remember in the past everyone would have general knowledge about a handful of sports but today the average person can't name a single skier. I can't name one and if they win a gold I doubt I'll even hear about it. Today people stick to one sport and that kills the Olympics
>>153199151After a decade of solidly declining Athleisure fashion and cool kids going all Grunge baggy and nationalism being hijacked by the right wing in a way unseen in nearly a century, the major design firms of the world have to design national clothes for a Milan olympics after a Paris, followed by a Los Angeles olympics.You really gotta feel sorry for them, it couldn't have gone worse for people marketing fashion, but it makes sense. Once grandma and the kids are watching ladies in tight pants and guys in shiny jackets instead of going to the East Village or West LA and wondering why everyone is in Yoga Pants. Just means athleisure is over unless you get your information from politically minded podcasters whose politics is just "loving their country"As for the games, these things just aren't for people who have to go to work 5 days a week, lets face it, you miss everything.
>>153199151can't be worse than the Paris one after that very Talmudic opening
>>153222063For what I read, the director of this year ceremony absolutely hated Paris one, calling it divisive at worst.However, Ghali is going to perform there, which already rustled chud's jimmies.
>>153199261I was looking forward to Tokyo 2020. It would have been the greatest spectator event on Earth otherwise.
>>153199151I'm looking forward to them
>>153200653>PetrosyanYou sure that's a Russian?
>>153200873I watch olympic sports even if there's no French competing (like fucking curling or speed skating), it's just because the event is rare.
>>153202418>I could care lessIf you could care less then do it, retard
>>153219071>>153219591Nice way to out yourselves as brown or so fucking weeb neet you’re completely detached from society
>>153237505Delusional, the only normie sport in this entire event is hockey and a lot of people aren't even a fan of that either.
>>153199151I dont have a tv sothis is really, nowadays, it's a far cry from when i was a kid, when the olympics meant somethingit's all garbage now brosall this social media twitter and twitch stuffyou knowit aint what it used to be
>>153237715now they got the fuckin pop ups, likje a million camerasidk whats' what it's all spastcback in my day u had 1 camera that was it now u got cameras in the air, u got flying cameras now i just saw this shit theo ther day they have the camera, flying, above the tennis players
>>153237649Skiiers and biathlon athletes constantly end up highest in popularity votes and shit thougheverbeit you fucking Achmed
>>153237842The average viewer is a boomer. I'm talking about average 20-35 year olds, they aren't sitting down to watch fucking Olympic skiing in their free time lmao
>>153237936The average 25-30 year old is arab like you, so yes they don’t.
>>153199151The Winter Olympics don't count, they were invented by scandis when they realized black people will start beating them in actual sports and they had to come up with a novel way to segregate 90% of the world population, half the events are just infantry drills they were doing in preparation of the winter war, and the other half are won by the team that can get the most asthma spray prescriptions. Absolute mickey shit. Fucking sledding is an event. Get on the sled the other way around, that's a different sport now LMAO. Might as well start adding the cripple olympics to your medal total, that's also organized by the IOC so it counts too right?
>>153238321>they had to come up with a novel way to segregate 90% of the world populationyou say like this is a bad thing
People know that's the first time a 3rd World Country (Brazil) will medal, so they're already pretending to not care about it.The brazilian might get a Gold Medal as well.Seb Coe wants to add Cross-country to ruin the Winter Olympics once and for all.
>>153199151We're hosting them and at the same time the media outlets aren't covering them at all because the only thing you can talk about is how the whole shit isn't ready yet and they start uhhhhh this week?
>>153199151Saw the thread in the catalog and immediately thought "made by an American".Don't worry, they won't throw you out even if your insane rulers invade Iran. (Although they should.)
>>153238476You're really paranoid aren't you. When Brazilians are world class at something they are popular. The football national team was basically supported by every "neutral" fan in the past. But Lula and his communist ideas are not really world class at all.
Its middle of winter, the fuck else am I gonna do.
>>153207477those shots were kino though
>>153200624Soul
>>153202949She's Team GB's chef de mission, whatever that is.
>>153254153Leader and captain of all she surveys.
I really hope they flops so they stop doing these shit events just trying to jew visitors.pretty much everything is 4x its normal price.
>>153199151As the games are drawing to a close you know the gangbangs and orgies are taking place.The Feels When you've never had sex and you gained your Mana bar.I wish I was American or Australia, they seem naturally good at every sport.Unlike the sub-par, amature athletes The Swamplands produces.
>>153199151>Are these the least hyped, least cared about Olympics of all time?There are no threads about the Super Bowl either. Because it's not happening yet. Does that mean nobody cares about the Super Bowl? Don't be fucking retarded.
>>153254348No, what's different is that they have more projects/opportunities/ads pushing people to try sports while young and cultivate that at a professional level
>>153200624Yes, but Cool Runnings is pure SOVL, and I genuinely like that movie.
>>153199151Wait, was there an Olympics this year?
>>153199151For whatever reason, I am actually excited for this Olympics. I swear one of the reasons is that its no over-hyped and no one really sems to care about it. Anyway, it looks like it starts today with some curling, so there is that.
>>153199151When's curling
Nobody gives 2 shitq about winter Olympics. It's all about the normal Olympics. Track and field. Athletics events. I would scrap winter Olympics altogether. When you say Olympics the first thing that pops into someone's mind 99% of the time is track and field running etc not bobsleigh or fucking skiing.
>>153262204Starts today about mid-morning your time
>>153262204in 2.5 hours.
>>153199261Fuck batmunching chinks for ruining Tokyo i (like everyone) was so eager to watch kino
>>153200630Racing up then back down a mountain on skis.
>>153262243For me hockey pops up, completely depends on who you're talking to.
Why do events start before the opening ceremony RETARDS
Only going to tune in for the Shitalian and Japanese Curling qts
>>153254943Impressive cope friend
>>153262243>Person who has never seen snow or ice doesn't care about winter olympicsYou have one quarter of our medals in the summer olympics, and none in winter. Maybe your country should just quit sports all together or even better, consider mass suicide.
hidden behind paywalls means you don't get the interest of the casual, and unlike sports like football there is no such person as a non-casual winter Olympics watcher (unless you're a Norwegian, Canadian or German)
>>153262766>he doesn't watch illegal streamsThe fuck is wrong with you? There's like 4 curling matches on today.
>>153262766>hidden behind paywallsOur public broadcaster will air like half of it.
>>153262853I will say this. When it comes to Olympics coverage, the CBC is absolutely phenomenal.
>>153199151Are they doing an opening ceremony? I wonder what kind of satanic humiliation ritual it's going to be this time.
>>153262937They'll give a gold medal to Trump
>>153203532Yet Israel is allowed
>>153263147kek
I just feel like 2008 were the last real Olympics
>>1532644942016 was great and I loved 2021 even if it had the worst deathmarch (at least it had one)
