OMG. Japan has gone soft. They are eliminating the Olympic Track Team captain as title puts too much pressure on the athlete

dude, get a life!

Oh no not woke mind virus infecting Japan ruining this beloved tradition that American track and field fans love so deeply! I was looking forward to seeing who would be named team captains of the Japanese Track and Field Olympic team for six months! I have four wagers on Bovada on who would be selected! Hopefully they void the bets and don’t mistake this for an Onion article. What a tragedy everyone is so soft that the Japanese Olympic Track and Field Team isn’t going to name captains, such a strong gesture, this is such a tragedy I will weep over the loss of the Japanese Olympic Team Captain tradition smothered by this softness I had to double check and make sure the date wasn’t April 1st this is such a tragedy, such a loss. Hopefully next Olympics they toughen up and name every Japanese athlete team captain and they all welcome the pressure with open arms and attend every Olympic event and ceremony!

Why does the role of Olympic team captain even exist?

Who’s the captain of the American Olympic team?

Good question. Nobody knows because nobody cares.

I bet rojo doesn't know. It's embarrassing that he started this thread.

Can't see anyone objecting to Crouser.

This. Running is not really a team sport. So what purpose would a running captain serve?

Lol, you're entire career could be summed up in an Onion article

I refuse to believe the white right wing American male evolved from the same ancestors as the rest of us

Of course, they refuse to believe it also

Ugly American Somehow Gets Uglier

I usually hate this insult but this was on point as first thread reply. I loled.

In Feudal Japan athlete puts too much pressure on title.

Your posts feel like excerpts from Onion articles. This "soft" country routinely puts marathoners below most wussy-ass Americans' marathon PRs.

As OH MY GOD as the libs as her emails as I nearly fell off my chair as my friend agrees with me as I would have been captain but I didn't know how to spell it as wejo is on vacation from not having a job as I need him to show me how to use email as I want to write to Japan as they are too woke as GET OFF OF MY LAWN!!! as can someone here give me a ride as I can't figure out how to open the garage door as that damn toilet is still running as I won the local neighborhood regional third grade spelling bee as I guess that makes me the captain of the spelling team as ofa lon teh.

Parker Valby. And I’m in agreement with most on this thread the author is a tool.

You're welcome to believe your ancestors were monkeys, mud skippers, and bacteria, but critical thinkers know evolution is a lie. There exist species with traits that would never have evolved, because they needed 100% of complex system, immediately, all at once. Any gradual development towards firing a blast out a beetle's rear end would've never happened, because evolution isn't supposed to favor failure and inferior designs for countless generations. Which means all the geology and carbon dating designed to provide time scales to match up with evolutionary theory are also bunk.

Damn rojo, you’ve gotten absolutely flamed on this thread!! Brutal

Rojo how much would we have to pay you to “go soft?”

Is it more or less than the amount you said you’d take to “go woke?”

Rojo I agree. We are a society that treats emotions as sacred Scripture, and emotional equilibrium as its highest calling. It’s not good.
