Let the Russian athletes play. If all the other countries involved in war and/or invasion were allowed to play, so should Russia. Keep politics out of sports!

[Jakub Balcerzak @Jakub110Jakub]

❗️ OFICJALNIE: Międzynarodowy Komitet Olimpijski zniósł wszystkie dotychczasowe ograniczenia wobec rosyjskich sportowców oraz tymczasowo przywrócił w prawach Rosyjski Komitet Olimpijski.

Decyzja ta została podjęta po analizie sytuacji prawnej i zmianach w strukturze rosyjskiego komitetu.

Od teraz sportowcy z Rosji mogą startować w kwalifikacjach bez konieczności udowadniania neutralności i bez wcześniejszych ograniczeń.

Rosyjska federacja piłki siatkowej zdążyła już ogłosić spory sukces oraz chęć jak najszybszego dołączenia do rankingu FIVB, który otworzy Rosji udział w turnieju igrzysk olimpijskich w Los Angeles❗️

So excited to watch the Russian team in volleyball!

🇷🇺RUSYA'NIN GERİ DÖNÜŞÜNÜN ÖNÜ AÇILDI

📍Uluslararası Olimpiyat Komitesi (IOC), Rusya'ya yönelik tüm kısıtlamaları geçici olarak kaldırdığını ve ülkenin olimpiyat komitesinin haklarını iade ettiğini duyurdu

📍LA28 Olimpiyatları elemeleri öncesi Rus sporculara ve takımlara uygulanan kısıtlamalar kalktı.

📍Rus bayrağı ve marşına izin verilip verilmeyeceği kararı ise şimdilik Uluslararası Federasyonlara bırakıldı.

FIVB ve CEV onaylarsa Rusya turnuvalara geri dönecek

Charles Barkley DECLINED an invite to the Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding.

"I did get an invite, and I politely declined... I love Travis and Jason, and I have only met Taylor once.. But I said that is just too much. I just want to hangout and play golf, and I don't want to dress up. But I appreciate the invitation it was pretty special."

There is no hate campaign. This recent influx of "hate" against her started when she was exposed with Blake in their effort to defame and steal a movie from Justin Baldoni then she just upped the ante by inconveniencing commuters in NYC because she had to have her tacky wedding.

[mich SAW TAYLOR SG N1 @folkloreslaps]

there is obviously an orchestrated smear campaign going on against her AGAIN

[Football Away Days @AwayDaysFB]

Harry Kane’s 32, married to his childhood sweetheart, got four kids, runs his own mental health charity and quietly donates to the armed forces and mental health causes. Barely drinks, doesn’t smoke, and in 15+ years in the spotlight he’s never had a single scandal. Proper clean living.

On the pitch? Ridiculous numbers. England’s all-time top scorer, Spurs’ all-time top scorer, six Golden Boots (four in the Prem, one at a World Cup). Most strikers could only dream of that.
Yet the bloke still gets written off and disrespected more than anyone in his generation. Gives everything for club and country, never puts a foot wrong off the field. Proper professional.

If you’re after a role model, it doesn’t get much better than Kane. The fact we even have to say it says it all, doesn’t it?

[Sai Ishaya @Sai_Ishaya_]

To summarise this thread: Europeans passively accept unfairness, while the American spirit refuses to let an injustice go uncorrected.😅

Watching Americans frame the LITERAL geopolitical blackmail of FIFA as a proud, patriotic stand for justice is incredible.

They are weaponising state power to cheat, & then writing poetic essays about their moral superiority.🫠

It's the exact same geopolitical narcissism that allows them to obliterate a country for natural resources, & then demand global sympathy via a 3-hour Oscar-winning film about the psychological toll it took on their patriotic invading army.

[TrueLoveWins @biangibs]

So much word salad just to justify bullying and circumvention of the rules.🙄

[Ellen Carmichael @ellencarmichael]

The most interesting part of the red card saga isn't the ruling. It's how differently Americans and Europeans process the idea that they might have been wronged.

Europeans are fundamentally different from Americans in one particular way: they expect life to be aggravating and at times unfair. It's just a fact of moving through the world. I joke that in Europe, the customer is always wrong. You didn't read the fine print. The only pharmacy in town is closed every other Tuesday for three hours, and even if the times weren't posted, that's still your problem. Too bad if you want the bill, because the waiter's on his union-mandated half-hour smoke break, and you're just going to have to wait.

To quote the great Mark Knopfler: sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. There's something freeing in that. Things are less in your control, so there's less angst in managing your expectations.

In America, things couldn't be more different. We simply can't accept a wrong left unrighted.

The flight attendant sneezed handing you a drink on your one-hour flight? 15,000 frequent flyer miles. Didn't like your appetizer? A replacement is on the way, and the whole course comes off the bill. There's a reason our interstates are lined with trial lawyer billboards.

Europeans have turned complaining into a continental pastime with no expectation that the universe owes them a remedy for their grief. You gripe about the train being late, your friends nod solemnly and everyone goes back to their apéro. In America, we launch a full-blown investigation of the train system, sue the government (and its contractors) that allowed for the tardiness and hold a Congressional hearing on the state of national infrastructure.

So to an objective observer, the red card shouldn't have happened, and VAR was a travesty. To Americans, our star player shouldn't be unfairly banned from a match we couldn't afford to lose for a card he so obviously didn't deserve.

Who cares that FIFA used a little-used reversal to fix it. Who cares that other people are mad about it. We. Were. Wronged. It was unjust. It must be corrected. We would accept nothing less.

Europeans waxing poetic about the sanctity of the game are, of course, talking about a governing body whose last tournament host was decided via confirmed cash bribes — one that imposed dress codes on women, shrugged off widespread allegations of modern slavery and reconfigured the entire tournament calendar to suit the host country. Which is exactly the point. If you've made peace with all of that, at least enough to watch the tournament four years later, a probationary suspension isn't actually a scandal.

Maybe that's the real divide. Over millennia, Europeans have made peace with being the bug. Americans have never once considered it, and apparently, we're not about to start now.

[Kara @UTDKarra]

Repost if you think Gianni Infantino is the worst FIFA president ever.

[TrueLoveWins @biangibs]

Leave it to an American who just learned about football 14 days ago and suddenly has an expert opinion and has "expert friends".

[Heidi @HeidiBriones]

Trump did nothing wrong.
He simply asked for a review.
They concluded what we all saw. It wasn't a red card.
Now stop crying about it.
May the best team win.
🇺🇸 🇧🇪

[TrueLoveWins @biangibs]

Such a very entitled and delusional take. Your best football player can't even be a significant player in the world's top leagues and yet you really think the world is terrified of you. It's the blatant bullying and bending of the rules are what's terrifying here.

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

All this crying from Europe is because of one thing and one thing only:

The rest of the world is terrified that we’re getting good at soccer

Fans becoming like their idol. If this is not the reason why parents should ban Taylor's music in their household, I don't know what is.

21 year old Filipino tennis star Alexandra Eala, who defeated defending champion Iga Świątek at Wimbledon, carries a Rosary in her tennis bag—one of the few personal items she brings with her to every match.

[TrueLoveWins @biangibs]

Americans twisting the narrative like it's not deplorable that an athlete that should've been banned is allowed to play because of one phone call from the host. Maybe somebody should interpret what's happening in NBA terms so they'd understand better?

[AQ Shipley @aqshipley]

If you are Belgium…Wouldnt you want to beat the best Version of the USA team? Interesting look complaining about this

Same shot. Same spot. 🤯

A deja vu hit from Rafa Nadal and now, Alex Eala. The timing and placement are so on point. This gave me goosebumps! #Wimbledon

Belgium and the other countries who qualify in the next round should just refuse to play against the US. Let the US win this WC by default and see how shameless they will be to claim a win by default. Let this WC be an example that politics shouldn't be in sports.

[Fox News @FoxNews]

President Donald Trump personally intervened in Folarin Balogun's World Cup red card controversy.

A source confirmed to Fox News that Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino to request a review of the USMNT striker's suspension.

FIFA later cleared Balogun to play against Belgium, while Belgium's soccer federation said it is exploring its options following the decision.

Joe Alwyn dodged a bullet and all her previous relationships. I don’t see them agreeing to this kind of ridiculous wedding. Makes you wonder what kind of man travis is and his real motives are.

[TrueLoveWins @biangibs]

@alor_q93894 "Every celeb was there (who she probably are not really friends with)" in the tackiest wedding venue ever is exactly what's wrong with this wedding. You fans are so blinded with your hero-worship you don't think how narcissistic she is.

[TrueLoveWins @biangibs]

She has no real friends. We all know that.

[jiari @jiarisunshine]
