What are nutritionists doing? 

 

 

 

 

Apparently whole team worked overnight with her but in the end docs said it could be life threatening.

Doctor Pardiwala is a gem of a person, trust him.

 

All our athletes including Vinesh have spoken highly about him. 

 

There were efforts no doubt, and our team would have explored all possible loopholes.

 

Only possible explanation is the coaches/nutritionists didn't keep her weight at a manageable level yesterday.

The olympics are becoming a joke these days. maybe it was a joke all along only that we are seeing it clearly now. they have an algerian tranny win gold but a biological woman is disqualified because she was a fraction of kilo overweight. they also have a disqualified player I don't know is it boxing who is from nigeria because of trans thing but now she is representing USA, its ok to compete and if I'm not wrong, <insert gender pronoun 404 not found> won gold this time.

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. 

Exactly. False start, weigh ins are black and white no matter how cruel. Do they really think that is manipulated? I won't be surprised if each of the wrestlers carry their own weighing scales to competition. 

 

Awarding PCs, PS (no hawkeye type projection, just interpretation), refreeing at end of round in boxing, gymnastics scoring etc. are grey areas.

 

Some people argue for the sake of arguing.

These *s ups can happen in World Cups, CWG, Asian Games. Why Olympics?

 

We have won just 2 individual gold  medals in Olympics. This is the cruelest of all the disappointments.

Biggest fiasco in Indian sports history.

Goi supported Vinesh all the time in every possible way but here because it is all visible concern by Modi all over media, it is a sad day for @New guy, @Singh blingn co.

And have the gall and lack of self-awareness to laugh about others being bhakts and cultists. truly the pits.

[Gollum]

Even if Vinesh had made weight doubt she was in any position to compete today. And the doctor said her life also could be at risk. Medals jaaye bhaad mein, first get healthy again.

Being an Indian sports fan is the toughest thing in the world. Har mod pe heartbreak.

Has lenge to rona nahi padega. Seh lenge ye bhi. 

Maybe if we cross our fingers we will still have some pleasant surprise.

Khabib and Islam were overweight in ufc bouts but mullah sullahs in Dubai faked the scale weights to pass the.

At this point its more likely Neeraj sends a mega throw going for 90+ and one of the line judges slips on the grass, gets impaled and Neeraj is taken in for questioning by the Frenchies
