How do they plan to enforce this ban, cause after I win, I am on the podium and I have my medal, it’s kind of a done deal.

They will probably withhold all or some of the monies the athlete gets from the USOC for earning the medal.

Are they for real! Do they not understand what’s at the heart of sports and how for millions of people the world it’s a way to escape oppression. What are they going to do, take an athlete’s medal away? Their rule doesn’t have the weight of the paper it’s written on.

If they do, they will make folk heroes of every athlete they punish, and villains of themselves. Good luck with that one.

At first they said they were going to just ban kneeling but then a post said Olympians will just raise their fists. I guess when Olympic officials saw that post, they tried to shut that down too. They should have kept that on a hush and raised their fists when the time came.

What country or specific people are they after in this situation?

Guess they forgot about Hitler’s Olympics
terrible when institutions have amnesia or is it dementia

When Germany was hosting the Olympics during Hitler's reign the Olympic Committee required that there would be no Nazi Propaganda in or around the Olympic Stadium
