I competed in a tiny lil Olympic sport no one outside of the shooting sports has ever heard of (double trap). Wasn’t nearly good enough to attend international competition, but the competitor pool was small and I knew plenty who did.
The IOC and the Olympics are nothing more than a scam. I respect the athletes dedication but after seeing the IOC’s scumfuckery up close I have 0 interest in the Olympics.
