It's about who's better at getting away with doping.
It was only in wine that he laid down no limit for himself, but he did not allow himself to be confused by it.

I've lost interest in all sports over the past few years. Between rule changes for "safety" and these overpaid participants whining I have other things to do.

I begin to understand how a lot of the Japanese feel, Queensland just landed the 2032 olympics. It will probably bankrupt the state. Hopefully we will have got control of the pandemic by then.

I don't see the point now that it is so highly commercialised. I feel that the commercialisation perverts the supposed essence of 'sport'.
And this Olympics in particular might have been better of being cancelled entirely (which I admit would leave Tokyo in particular, Japan as a whole, and a lot of sponsor very badly out of pocket).
Didn't the Japanese Emperor rather dis the games, despite turning up to open them? Ah yes, he did: He observed that there was a risk of spreading Covid if the games went ahead. That strikes me as something of a very understated but significant criticism. It was unacceptable for him to refuse to open the games and so he did his duty but it was clear that he didn't like the under the circumstances.

That's a Crazy Train of thought, but I Don't Know the answer. It'll be a Revelation when I know for sure.

Good point, although they are both breathing and erect I think brain activity is minimal.

I'm 72 as well. I have bad teeth, Sciatica, Epilepsy (started 2 years ago), cardiac issues, I could go on but I'd just depress myself. 
I agree with you.
Oh, and I'm going bald too. I envy them for that.
It's Hell getting old, and I'm starting to wonder if it really beats the alternative.

How about "Cliff Diving" by Hugo First? Have you read that one?
And then there's "Falling off the Ladder" by Eileen Dover.
