I row for our corporate team and spoke with the Riversport coordinator about the Olympics. They would need to redo the bridges over the river to have open water for the whole race.
I’m interested in that comment.
Is there not enough open water between the bridges for a competition?
I honestly know nothing about rowing sports other than like to watch them.
Edit: I see you already answered that.

Any topic...Have to have all the negative comments. We sound like the snowflakes we used to hate.....
It's called "virtue signaling". Complainers trying to sound superior to others for something that most find positive.

Kind of like people that announce "I don't watch the NFL anymore because of XYZ". Why the need to say that if it is important to you, just stop watching and don't make a show about it?

Well I can't speak for you guys but I've always been told (by men, of course) that complaining was a "hormonal issue". Like women are the complainers ... 🤷🤷😉 Midol, anyone? 😉😘

Spending money on infrastructure and others things that will be "needed" to support the Olympic venues..........hotels, restaurants and such will make like bandits while the common citizens support it all thu taxes or mapps taxes..........just like the basketball area and practice gym we front the money and supposedly it will get paid back thru rent etc....after the pols get done dipping into the bucket
