When told what Pound had said and asked for an IOC response, spokesperson Mark Adams said, via text,"Well, as we announced yesterday, we are looking at scenarios."
The Olympics would be the latest – and, by far, most significant – sporting event to be impacted by the coronavirus, which was first identified in Wuhan, China, in December. Also known as COVID-19, the virus rapidly spread throughout China and across the world in subsequent months, infecting hundreds of thousands of people and causing substantial disruptions to daily life in numerous countries..
By Monday morning, the German Olympic Committee had joined its counterparts in Brazil and Norway, among other countries, in publicly urging the IOC to postpone the Olympics.

No one cares when the Special Olympics still dropping!
DICK POUND WHAT?
Wait... what was that name you guys just casually threw in there?
JulienBahain 2022 would be better.
What?
Veteran dick pound? 😂😂😂
Finally! I'm sure it was hard but Dick Pound, the longest serving IOC member, came and did the upright thing! He's a tax lawyer and an expert in how the gov screws you! Dick Pound CC OQ QC OLY being a Canadian has a CA and also a BCL. Disappointed he doesn't have a PhD though...
Can you imagine if someone called you and when you asked their name they said Dick Pound? Even worse calling someone having to tell them that’s your name. 🤔
finally, hope the Japanese government do their job, not to hide the virus information
...err, Dick Pound ...?
Of course they should be postponed, why is it taking so long to decide.
Just cancel it. Concerts, festivals, and the local events will be cancelled again if they postpone the Olympics! It’s killing entertainment industries (and lots of small businesses), and damaging local economies! Not everyone in Japan are interested in sports. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
Ok but this dudes name is dick pound
Good ol' Richard 16oz
If Vagina Kilogram starts a correspondence with the NFL im going road warrior
That's Canadian Dick Pound
notzackboyce thats his fucking name
But what about other events scheduled in 2021!
DICK POUND
It’s the right thing to do since the entire world is dealing with a highly deadly spreading virus!!!!
Why would you not go with Richard or Rich, unless you're going into the porn industry.
Wait DICK POUND?
Is that really his name? ... *incredulous*
Yeah are you fucking kidding no that's not gonna happen because the codvid 19 will be destroyed in the hot burning sun and warm weather once and for all 😡😠 So just let Olympics happen in the summer
I feel for all the athletes who prepared for countless hours...
mexicoworldcup WisoVazquez Does this mean some Mexico players will not be eligible for the team? Cesar Montes turns 24 in February
Wait. What’s his name?
Hugh Jasol was unavailable for comment
MisterAntiBully At least if he has to go into porn, he doesn't have to change his name.

Hey ladies who wants to get to know dick? For a good time at the pounds.
MisterAntiBully His name is a joke right?
Wait, what? You mean it hadn't been postponed already
I'm sorry 'Dick Pound'
i'm sorry, who?!
basketcaseyyyy crazy. Also- Dick Pound? Are you kidding me? We’re in the matrix. This is not real life.
LMFAO
Ahahhahahahahahahahahhaahahajahahajajajajajahajjajaja
Can we talk about Mr Dick Pound for a moment? I mean, he could've totally named himself Rich Pound. That actually sounds way cooler, like a British rapper. It's like he was asking for this 😆
🤨If my last name were Pound I’d go by Richard lol ...this can’t be real 🤣
Wait.... his name is Dick Pound!!!! dickpound
Imagine being named Dick Pound
too late!
this man chose not to use 'richard'
Is that his real name Jesus!
Why wouldn’t he go by Richard?
私は、2年先に 冬季、夏季のダブルオリンピックが 史上初めて開催され コロナを越えて 世界が一体になる そう言う夢を 私は見ています おんなじ夢を見ませんか？
I used to think life is a poorly written syfy channel movie. Now I know it’s a comedy
I think he may have “pulled out” too soon.
Lmfao WHAT is his name?!?!
I cannot believe this is real purely based on the name
Okay, people are still free to choose the proper name, or nickname of their choice. But if you're going to be a spokesperson creating headlines, maybe Mr. Pound can try 'Richard'.
So winter Olympics will be on 2022 or 2023? Also accounting for future Olympics
延期一択でしょ
Better than cancellation
You totally made that name up
Expect Japan to announce a sudden increase in corona the day after its officially delayed. “Oh, we found these reports on 10,000 cases from last month under this rug over there.”
日本経済はどうなるんだろう
マジ？ 嵐どうなるんだろう
bannerite Dick Pound....wasn't he in 'Deep Throat'?😆
Dick Pounds? I call bullshit on that name.
Laws and regulations enacting against the Japanese race in connection with the Tokyo Olympics have been passed. It is the Ainu New Law and the hate speech regulations of Tokyo. These should be abolished immediately. 東京オリンピック→抗日 アイヌ新法 ヘイトスピーチ 条例 大須
Omg And Wow!!!
１年延期してもしまだコロナが収まってなかったら…また延期するのかな？
It's a wise decision. The safety of players, spectators and staff should be given priority. I am delighted that there were decent people in the IOC . Thank you. Dick Pound🥰 OlympicGames Olympic2020 dickpound Japan_Olympic オリンピック
At a time when the world needs to come together and prove that we will survive and overcome a virus bunch of chicken shit IOC members a few coaches and athletes decide this. simmonssteve because of media pressure.
Olympic Silver Medalist, Steele_Johnson also saddened by this news.
Is that his name or a new Olympic event?
GreatnessXXIII Thank you, Dick Pound!
独占：2020年の東京オリンピックは延期され、おそらく2021年にベテランIOCメンバーのディック・ポンドは言う
Couldn't get...?
THAT NAME!!
Veteran International Olympic Committee member Dick Pound told USA TODAY Sports on Monday afternoon that the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games are going to be postponed, likely to 2021, with the details to be worked out in the next four weeks.

It’s a relief... from Japan 🇯🇵

So wouldn't that be the 2021 Olympics? Not that anyone watches.
妥当
MisterAntiBully Dick Pound my man!
Transgender track star Hugh G. Rection will have to wait until next year.
五輪延期 の発言でも委員止まりか。 やっぱり会長の発言でないと重みはないな。 あくまで日本は、「やるぞ」の勢いでいないと、責任問題で、 思わぬところから、冷や水かぶせられるから、注意はしておかないと。
2022にしてくれや

こう言ってもらう事を待っていたんじゃないでしょうか？ 何のリスクも背負う気が無い人達が、「恩典」目当てで税金使っての運動演芸会の成れの果て。こういうオリンピックはもう終わりにした方が良いのでは？「五輪」のシンボルマークが泣いていますよ。

DICK POUND
But postponement is not easy. Some of the venues are already reserved by other events in 2021, and the Olympic village is already sold. JOC and Tokyo will need more budget to make these changes. It's our taxes! What a fantastic event!
東京オリンピック延期は2022年やのうて2021年やなん？

noirknight916 his name was what
この約6500億円(約600億ドル)の損害額は中国共産党が是非払って貰いたい！ これは日本国民の税金なのだ。
I shed tears whenever I think of olympic team member... I would like as many people as possible to be saved and hope the coronavirus will end🙏😔
Hate to see it but it was the right call
Good
もう中止でイーじゃん また大金がかかっちゃうんだから、そのお金を東日本大震災の被災者支援に回した方がイーよ
今年に開催したところで棄権する選手が続出するのは目に見えてたから妥当な判断かと。
どんな影響があるかなー
It's finally announced, isn't it? Next...
What does Lou Scunt think?
正式発表じゃないけど来年ね
オリンピックは延期として、コミケはどうなるんじゃろ？
延期するならば、 世界水泳等の日程あるが、その日程どうするかや、いつまでにコロナ終息できないなら、東京五輪どうするかと東京五輪の延期日程いつにするか。予選はやり直すか決めなさい！ 東京五輪の延期になったので、 約6500億円が発生した😱 この財源は日本国民の税金なのだ😰
did we ever get a comment from member Bofa D'Snuts ?
MisterAntiBully Good call, those teenagers fighting on the site were making a huge mess. That's what this is about right?
And his partner Mike Hunt.
Corona be like

I would like as many people as possible to be saved and I hope the coronavirus will end.
That will be too early. Still COVID19 in 2021.

All sports will be postponed and suspended until life returns to normal not just the Olympics. Lets hope the cure and vaccine for Covid19 comes.
So will the 2020 gear I already have be collector's items? ;)
tasha_alexa_ my favourite name
He should go by his middle name. Or just Richard.
is this real news? or fake?
オリンピックは延期が決定か〜
good news🥳
公式発表ではないんでしょ？ 何故ちょこちょこ小出しにするのかなあ 。右往左往するからやめてほしい
Not decided yet. The IOC has not denied the option of 'conventional holding' at this time.
これが懸命な判断です❗️
'Dick Pound'
らいねんにえんき？
Life as we no now it has been postponed!

MisterAntiBully It's the only sensible solution
That's a good answer for us(Sorry for national members in the world.) People's safety is more important than all the gold medals.There's only one event that really matters anyway and even that's not worth watching with Mr Bolt retiring.
excuse me
もしこれが事前に日本政府と共有せずに、個人的にぽろっと話したなら、まじであり得ないリーク。委員としてダメでしょ？
It is very difficult to hold a new venue. There are already other events. The Olympic Village is planned to be converted to an apartment. Can it really be held?
MisterAntiBully I still can’t get over that name

MisterAntiBully His name wasn't relevant for the headline. They just couldn't resist
scotbot
中止だ中止
All it took was Canada and USA saying they won’t sent ppl.
His name is what?
Is the executive producer DICK WOLF?
苦渋の決断だったと思いますが、観客や選手、そして何よりも「スポンサー」の安全を最優先した英断です！ しかしながら五輪のために様々な展示会や説明会などが後回しにされる状態があと1年続くと日本経済に対するダメージも大きくなります。 どうかさらなる「英断」を検討願います！
The new Olympic Logo:
いつ？
オリンピック延期決定？ 彼の発言は正式発表ととらえていいのか？ “On the basis of the information the IOC has, postponement has been decided,”
Hugh G. Rection should weigh-in.
This is how you know we live in the matrix. The random name generator is glitching.
2022希望！
またな!!!!!
will be? decided? which?
arlenparsa Would it be so difficult to go by Richard? Rich? Rick?
Does this mean next year is a leap year too? 🤔
To be on the safe side, 2022 might be better.
Good move 👏👏
観客よりも選手がかわいそう。
Fuck China
Who says? 😂😂😭😭😭😭

Dick Pound?: What where his parents thinking of?!
Hard decision. Had to do it
If you Google this guys name, you'll be routed straight to PornHub !!😆
This guy is not the president of the IOC. Why not wait until Thomas Bach announces what will happen? It's 5 months away, dammit, things have been changing weekly. Calm the fuck down.
Thanks again communist China
finally

Well what did Mike Hawk say?
Why doesn’t this guy go by Richard?
spicyquesoman Live on UK news, saying closed doors or slimmed down. 4 weeks before ANY decision made!
Who chooses to go by Dick when your last name is Pound?
How is Dick Pound still around? One of the worst I’ve ever had the misfortune to work with. Called female execs “twinkies.”
Why not just move the location to Bangcock?
Dick Pound did nothing wrong
Seriously? Until we get confirmation from Buck Naked, I don't believe they've pulled out.

MisterAntiBully I'm never ready for that name
redsteeze You said Dick Pound 🤣
MisterAntiBully I legit needed that laugh, even if it's terrible news there's no way you can't laugh reading the name 'Dick Pound'
MisterAntiBully Will there be anyone left to attend?
MisterAntiBully The real important part of this headline is the name
MisterAntiBully Nick Higgers had the sniffles so he was unable to comment

About time. Countries are still dealing with pandemic and there's no real need for athletes, coaches, and fans to traveling in mass numbers.

This is a sign of worldwide weakness
Thank goodness...
Heywood Jablomee approves
daleyvibes bro, we out
Thats... that is really his name? Common man!
and yet it was not announced on the Tokyo2020 twitter account ?
Wouldn't 2022 be better for long-term planning since epidemiologists say it could be at least 12-18 months until we get to the other side of this mess?
at last
A no brainer move. Why did it take so long?!
Mike Hunt wasn’t available for comment.
It will be postponed but it’s challenging for me to believe the source is someone named “Dick Pound”. 😂
thank u capitalism, very cool
yea so about MLB ...
PAndres2001 Wow
Question: In order to get back on even years, will Summer Olympics have another contest in 2024?
rolandsmartin It is almost official...
Dick Pound? Now that, is an unfortunate name.
And the IOC catches up to the rest of the world
Dick Pound is a gold medal winning name
