I’m the first to admit I’m not a big sports fan. I don’t usually watch sports, but I’ve recently been sucked into the injustice that seems to be plaguing the Olympic Boxing events. If you’ve been watching these events then you already know what I’m talking about. The scoring process is severely flawed. Points are awarded inconsistently and it almost seems that certain countries are favored over others. The commentators of the boxing events made comments like “I can’t believe he didn’t get a point for that shot” or “this is unbelievable!” while laughing in a state of disgust at the poor scoring techniques employed by the judges.
I eventually reached a point where I could no longer watch this event because the scoring was so ridiculously all over the map that I just found myself getting more and more pissed off at the judges. I just had to change the channel. This is a complete joke and boxers who have worked hard and trained hard are being robbed of their hard work and dedication. While you’re watching this crap, you find yourself wanting to plead with someone to do something! I’m so disgusted that I would go so far as to say that the United States should boycott the boxing events for these Olympic Games. Seriously… This is ridiculous and so frustrating. I’m just disgusted.
