[bots]

japan are being pretty dickish about it. It will get good results if it's delayed a year

[MB.]

what do we care about irrelevant Canada athletes, not like they would've won many medals

Nor would any of the other athletes because they'd all have contracted coronavirus

[arista]

Japan invested all their Cash in it.
Tough Luck.

A Delay will not work

[Cal.]

[Twosugars]

Once a Nation Pulls out
it means other Nations
will now follow.

That is what matters Nicky

[arista]

then those lazy scientists have to hurry up with a vaccine

Many nations are
but Testing takes one year.



Japan Olympics

its about saving lives
not money invested

[arista]

Why don’t they just do it next summer


Money Invested.

[Nicky91]

cancelling isn't among options


postponing it a year might be, japan's Abe had said

The World Demands it

[Nicky91]

well i trust Asia more than europe in terms of controlling this virus


and if there really was any doubts, Thomas Bach of IOC would've already said so, so he also must have faith in Asia's control over the virus

[Cherie]

I don't understand how the Japanese think it can go ahead :shrug:

[Smithy]

Australia out too now

[Cherie]

Apart from anything else training for a lot of these athletes will be patchy with having to self isolate or maybe even contracting the virus

[arista]

I don't understand how the Japanese think it can go ahead :shrug:

Only the Cocky Leader

our Hockey teams, and also at gymnastics, Epke Zonderland who should Always be considered a contender there


2021 is a better solution to postpone it till then, and i do hope all athletes can also start preparing for that soon too

Also means some young contenders who weren't going to be there will be primed for 2021, pushing some of this years hopefuls aside. A shame for them as they'll have been training for 4+ years for this summer.
