silentbob Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I would cancel them myself. I feel bad for the athletes who probably did everything they could to be Covid free, only to get it and miss out on the games they worked years for. I’m surprised more sponsors don’t speak up like Toyota did by dropping their official Olympic logo from ads they paid through the nose for.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Japan's Olympic organizers lied about its weather, and now athletes are paying the price SPORTS.YAHOO.COM In its bid for the 2020 Summer Olympics, Japan claimed "this period provides an ideal climate for athletes to perform." It doesn't, and they lied. Quote The last time Tokyo hosted the Summer Games was 1964. It was held in October to avoid just these kinds of conditions. That made sense. Well, Japan is 3.6 degrees warmer now on average, per government figures. The number of days hitting 95 or above have gone from an average of one per year to 12. In both 2018 and 2020, it reached a record 106, part of heat waves that saw hundreds pass away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
