FIFA has just delayed a decision on a Palestinian bid to suspend Israel from international soccer until after the Paris Olympics, claiming that both parties had requested more time to submit their positions.
Imane Khelif earned a gold medal at the Paris Olympics! Seeing images and videos of the final match truly shows what REAL sportspersonship is and what women supporting women ACTUALLY looks like:
Look at their smiles!!!
Congratulations to Yang Liu of China for winning Silver, Janjaem Suwannapheng of Thailand and Taiwan's Chen Nien-chin for winning bronze!!
the creators of Ted Lasso really said we’re going to make a football show using every rom-com trope and beat not about an actual romantic pairing but rather to tell a story about grown ups becoming better people through love, openness, mutual support, and therapy.
33-year-old Ugandan marathon athlete Rebecca Cheptegei, who competed in this summer's Paris Olympic Games, has been killed by her ex-boyfriend. He doused her in petrol, set her on fire and burned her alive when she came back from church with her two daughters.
Gender-based violence is a major concern in Kenya, where Cheptegei lived and worked. In 2022, at least 34% of women in Kenya said they had experienced physical violence, according to a national survey.
Her death comes after the killings of fellow East African athletes Agnes Tirop in 2021 and Damaris Mutua in 2022, with their partners identified as the main suspects in both cases by the authorities.
Our thoughts are with her family, who are left without their loving relative and the family's main breadwinner.
Here are sports they should add to the Olympics (not very serious)
- disc golf
-roller derby
-a game of hide and seek in the Olympic village that goes for the entire time the Olympics is happening and every once and while the announcers will give updates on the game
- field games (tag, capture the flag, camouflage)
- other types of camp and field games (washers, cornhole)
- bowling?? (Idk if they have that already if so yay)
- cricket (either the five day slow one or the really fast version)
To be clear, while I DO spoil my beautiful and handsome cat son,I don't mean that I spoil him in a chew-my-shoes, overfeed-him, give-him-people-food, wander-off-leash kind of way.
I spoil him like a well-to-do businessman would spoil his one and only firstborn son with a sugar lolly during Sunday promenade at the pier, where he might traipse about in his little sailor suit and watch the boats go by.
