[eatyourgreens]

my under 2.5 goals is red, (negative)......................my over 2.5 goals is red (negative)

If two negatives = a positive, how do I green up from here?



Have a nice day!

Just noticed Team GB's medals were spread over 23 different events which set a new record for us and was more than any other country at Tokyo inc, China and USA

When I first saw that headline today I thought it was something like Roberto Duran!

Not that bad thankfully but the poor horse looked terrified. Don't understand the logic of being drawn a horse. Apart from the horses being spooked, the outcome of an elite sport should have as little to do with luck as possible.

I only saw the video of it yesterday, talk about a storm in a teacup! It was basically a fist bump on the horses ass, I've gotten harder punches from my 5 and 6 year old nephews.
Agreed on the illogical drawing of horses, if someone is used to practicing for years on their nice friendly mare and goes up on a stubborn stallion with 20 minutes "bonding" time, it's bound to end badly.

I love this picture.

It's like the horse knows he's just crushed her Olympic dream and he's loving it!

Did you enjoy the Keirin Pat. I believe the Tokyo Olympics elevated this discipline.

[Trader Pat]

Yeah it was an interesting watch. Especially now that I'm an expert on the sport
