Is this ice dancing crap really a sport?

They have video replay in hockey in the olympics, but yeah the refs can be a factor in games but they are always from neutral countries unlike in judged sports. I am not sure if I have of instances in hockey where refs decided to call penalties against one team in a tournament constantly. In figure skating there have been situations where judges have decided to not allow certain teams or individuals to win, particularly North Americans. As much as I love the sport, boxing has to be the worst. I still remember Roy Jones Jr getting robbed in Seoul.

What about boxing?

I did mention boxing in my first post, specifically Roy Jones Jr getting robbed in Seoul. Boxing does have a system that is harder to corrupt though in the olympics now.

The term "el-wrongo" is perfect for use in describing KG because the term itself is el-wrongo, just like KG is!

Also it highlights the issue of KG's xenophobia very nicely.

One of my daughters is a ballet dancer, twice national competition champion soloist. My other daughter was all-division in soccer and three times all-state in track and field. Two athletes. Only one played a sport.
