If she's overweight, then she's overweight. What can any protest do? 

 

We cant sulk, need to move on. 

Honestly am not too disappointed anymore, she was always wrestling a category up and tried to sneak in under 50 this time.

 

Others might be doing it too but she was cutting it too fine. 
 

Unless she was willing to do an Antonio from Merchant of Venice she shouldn’t have taken the risk.

At that point we had a genuine shot at 3 gold medals. 2 now blown up in dust

If Anderson Peters comes up with his best, even third gold will be missed too.

@New guy don't dodge. Looking at when you are active, you seem to post in our timezone. 

 

What do you mean by 'your government'? 

 

Do you believe in some naxalite type or revolutionary movenent that doesn't recognize GOI?

 

Are you a US, UK or XYZ citizen. I doubt that because you seem to follow our politics very keenly. And are strongly opinionated.

 

Just need clarity, since you are an active poster here. 

 

UPA 2 was still our government, one can like or dislike a party. But Indian democracy?

 

 

[IndianRenegade]

If this is true, the support staff should be fired immediately.

Rules are rules.

 

If found above weight, wrestler is awarded last place.

Weird how you were protesting for much more grey areas throughout the Olympics which were also within rules.

 

A few grams on the weighing scale is easiest to fix and any scale can be easily fixed. The wrestler would have checked their weight before coming for official weighing in. 

 

This is where a country's soft power and diplomacy comes to fore.

But this time the Shylok is US and they will take their pound of flesh without the blood spilling or not since they are currently in a medal race with China.

Come on, we can act dumb all you want but it's clear there was no interested in supporting her throughout.

Wait wait wait, weren't you guys crying about the slightest of grey areas in hockey and other sports saying things are fixed. 

 

Now we should just move on? 

 

A few grams of weight is the easiest to fake on a scale and much much easier than anything you claimed in hockey. The wrestler and her team would have 100% taken her weight before coming for the weighing in. 

 

A lot  of people are exposing their true mentality her finally. So much for patriotism eh?

Being overweight is not a grey area, make your mind up on what it is you're arguing about or trying to prove. 

Also no one has said we should just move on, stop projecting and hallucinating again.

She was overweight in evening of Tuesday. If she would have weighter just after reaching finals and realised she was 2kg overweight she could have just said she is injured and needs medication. Simple. Issue is i m sure the organisers immediately weigh you after the bout to make sure you dont game it

I'm not getting this... Why was her staff and coach so stupid like they didn't knew the weight rules...

Fire everyone who could have and didnt think of this simple idea. Dont they carry a weighing scale with them? They should have checked and cross checked multiple times last night and before the official weigh in... WTF!!!!!! I will blame support staff for thins mess!

US is sharpening its tools for LA 2028.

 

But you are right, they are the winners in this fiasco.

Does Antim has any chance?
