It's interesting how the judges seem to focus more on the mistakes an athlete makes even if the athlete has done a routine like nobody else, something that is theirs, something that is them. That's one of the worst things about the Olympics, there is really no such thing as better or worse routine, and yet they have an entire international event dedicated to grading which routine was better or worse, and that's what athletes are taught, they have to get a certain score. It's like grading what food is better or worse, some people like pizza and hate Chinese food and some people like Chinese food and hate pizza, the whole thing gets silly.
Olympic judges seem like the worst kind of people, instead of the Olympic games being the games that they are, people get the impression that all this stuff is the most serious thing in the world if they listen too closely to the judges.

Get the Olympic judgesmug. The circus that is the Olympics.
If you think the Olympic big top is a joke, the illusion that the Olympic games are serious and meant to be taken seriously might be lost. Then they might have to rescript the whole thing, that's no fun.

Get the Olympic big topmug. 10 medals in Track and Field events for men's track, as many as Kenya's total number of medals for all events in both sexes, is not a nightmare Olympics. The media and people saying that is semi American are the half hearted ones, the track and field teams gave it their all and finished their Olympics with something to smile about.
For most countries, 10 medals would be a dream come true, not a Nightmare Olympics. In a pandemic with more time away from training and families than any other Olympics the United States participated in, not to mention hardly any veterans/leadership/teammates from past Olympics, 10 medals for men's track and field is special in it's own way.

Get the The Olympic Noosemug. The name says everything you need to know about them, they are games. Anybody that tries to tell you the athletes aren't there to play because they are the most skilled athletes in the world at their event doesn't know what they are talking about. No matter how competitive a game can get, no matter what is on the line, and no matter what record is broken, it is always going to be just a game, and nothing more. Good Will Hunting explained it, some people can just play at an instrument, Will could just play at equations, and athletes can just play at their sport. Of course it will require time, effort, training, and practice to play well, the same kind of dedication peole put toward their jobs, but it really is still just playing at the end of the day. Most people in the world don't clock in for a work day at a gym because it's not a work place, it's somewhere people go to practice or train at their talent, not their work.
Talent and work are not the same thing, which is why most people go to work, then they play on their time off if they do at all (sports, other things if they have a talent at anything). The Olympic Games are not leisure in the sense that most people have of leisure, they are not the same thing as vacation, they require more time, energy, effort, and dedication than vacation or leisure, but they are still games, and as long as they are games, the athletes in them are playing. Any time somebody starts calling anything called games or sports something else, or says that athletes or players are not playing, they are doing something else, is missing the point and calling things something other than what they are.
