Are you watching the death rattle of all authentic sports?

Its happening. Just look at the news everyday.
Falou is arguably the best rugby player in the world.
He won't be at the world cup likely because of his opinion,
Others will sit the tournament out to most likely.
Politics is ripping the heart out of the sport.
This is just the begining.

and I couldn't give a toss. There is always something. Always!
This will have no affect on my watching of the WC. I can't wait for the Cricket season for the Boxing day test with Aussie too.
You're just too panicky about the trivial, in my mind

You don't give a toss that you a robbed of watching the best sports talent in the world?
You don't give a toss that you are missing out on watching the best in the sport due to politics?
Your not a fan. Not a true one.

I am going to watch a great world cup. We lose people to injuries etc all the time. It's no real biggie.
I haven't been robbed of anything.
You are just being hysterical about something that isn't a big deal in my eyes
-
So you are saying losing some of the best athlete talent in the world from playing in a tournament supposed to feature the worlds best players isn't a big deal?
WOW. I would of thought that would have quite a negative impact.
As far as your concerned. It doesnt matter who plays as long as they wear the jersey?
This is the death of true sports for sure.

Do you like Def Leppard mate? They have a great song and album around your thoughts.
The sky shall not fall and sport will have its "ups and downs" all the time.

@NightmareHitter if you are freaking out, take a look at Olympics and the massive political influence over history. They are still going rather well.
I hope that helps a little

Many would say on form Falou has been the best player in the world the last two seasons. Once again subjective but if he was a kiwi he would be in the All Blacks.
Claims many wallabies will sit out if he is allowed to play on. And rumours starting to circulate that a few pacific island players will sit out the world cup to if he is not allowed to play.
-
Are the olympics still going well though?
Women who are men winning 100m sprint titles cant be good?

They still seem pretty popular.
You are just getting your knickers in a twist over an isolated incident and think that one thing means that it will happen forever.

There's a big difference between being the best player in the world and being in the All Blacks. Even if he was in the All Blacks he wouldn't even be amongst the top 2 outside backs in the team (Rieko, Ben Smith). That's a long way from arguably the best player in the world.
-
Claims and rumours do not equal "most likely".

Ben Smith cough cough cough get off the meth.
Ben smith maybe 4 years ago. Falou way ahead of Smith.
Rieko is faster not better than Falou.
Falou all time best try scorer in super rugby.

How long do you think female athletes are going to put up with Mrs Doubtfire bearing them ?

Who are you referring to? I can't think of that happening at the olympics
