UFCCagerattler Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 They have thrown a bunch of badminton players out of the Olympics for not trying to win matches in order to get a better draw. The Japanese soccer coach just admitted he played for a draw and told his team not to score during a 0-0 game because he didn't want to play his next match in Scotland. He doesn't get thrown out. More inexplicable ******** from the IOC. No wonder the NBA and the NHL want out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's thinking because it was so blatant and the fact they didn't even try to hide it was an issue. I actually don't blame China or South Korea. In other sports, this **** happens, too. You rest some players and don't really care about tanking your number 1 seed because you already secured your spot in the playoffs. It's a systemic issue with the rules.
