Priceless. If you have to go on twitter and be a reply guy, at least know who you’re talking to.

I think most people in here know i'm a former physicist. So i asked a Biologist about this. Teaches at a Mountain West University. This is her direct quote:
"Individuals with XY DsDs are usually born with female-appearing genitalia, which can lead to being sexed as female. They typically have testes (internal), XY sex Chromosomes, Male levels of testosterone and androgen receptors. They experience physical benefits of high testosterone during puberty analogous to male puberty. May be socialized as female. May also be considered female by governments. Will likely identify as female; but biologically are men."
This is the best information i have on the boxing situation. But i don't think there's been any for sure proof that the boxer in question is confirmed XY DSDs. Just giving the two-cents of a person who knows far more about it than I ever will.
Edit: Will also say that since i don't know anything here, i can't advocate to how accurate, politically motivated, this may be. Though i know she was a Sanders fan and Lesbian, so I doubt its coming from a hateful place in any way.

It's funny how they have Laurie Hernandez commentate on the gymnastics when it's live, but for the primetime airing, they have the big guns come in and re-commentate it as if it were live.

Royalties on records I’d imagine at the least.
He had a nephew or cousin I forget exactly which but a relative nonetheless on Penn State’s basketball team a few years ago. Nobody knew it beforehand but he came to a game there & all the media & such were completely puzzled as to why he would be a Penn State basketball game.

With all the crazy additions...I would like to propose speed talking..Like, I am no race walk judge... but so many of them have both their feet off the ground basically every stride.
Half of them just jog while doing the funny hip thing to throw off the judges aha.
Hell, the wiki for racewalking has a still that shows multiple of them that should be DQ'd lmao.
20 kilometres race walk - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
Basically whoever is the best at pretending not to jog and does not get noticed by the judges is the Gold medalist.
DQ them all.

This women's all-around is pretty damn tight. Simone is up .166 points heading into the final event. Suni tied for 4th, .34 back of 3rd. They should finish with gold and bronze, but we'll see

I think it's pretty clear that Italian boxer decided to deliberately 'create a scene' and not even try. She's been known to pull off stuff before.
This was a Don King special if I ever saw one.

USA Women just won the first team fencing gold medal in USA history (men or women). Beat Italy who was the #1 ranked team in the world (and defending gold medalists from Tokyo)
Italian fencer tried to stop momentum with the USA needing 2 points to clinch, claimed an issue with her sword and switched to a back-up to basically get a few minutes of stoppage... but the US fencer scored the next 2 points and won gold. (She also won silver individually in the Olympics earlier this week in a USA vs USA final)

I love fencing. I've wanted to take it up for years but my schedule doesn't allow any fun. Pumped for that gold.
3s basketball is so terrible. I love it. I think it was a Poland match where either team could have won going down the stretch. Might have been tied. Everyone was taking and blocking the sloppiest shots in basketball history and each team was bricking and rimming the shit out of every shot over and over.

Wait a minute. All of this is because someone is taking an IBA ruling seriously?!?!
I've seen people breaking down the last punch of the fight like it shows some kind of proof. The poor woman threw a wide, flailing hook while presenting her chin and dropping her lead arm. Paulie Malignaggi could have broken the sound barrier with her flying corpse.

Me and my father-in-law here arguing about 3x3 Basketball being totally different sport, haha... And him saying all it would take for any team to win would be to pick Lebron/Doncic/Sabonis
The US gets gold in the men's 4 in rowing, first time since 1960. Two of the four are from the Philadelphia area:
Team USA earns men's four rowing gold for first time since 1960

Saw that live and wondered if I ever ran past those dudes while they were skulling down the schyulkill
It’s probably my favorite sport to watch at the Olympics. I went to the Dad Vail Regatta once back when I lived in Philly.

The hardest punch she's ever taken came from a 9-5 fighter? That had me wondering if she's the only Italian who wanted to fight in that class. It's ridiculous.

Not even saying it just because of hockey but I think I’m more inclined to watch random winter based sports in the Olympics over summer based.

I think that's because in general..they show the "weirder" sports in winter than in summer...like Biathalon gets shown regularly now it seems..but you have to go an hunt to find like...archery
