Olympics Rio '16

[Catman100]

USA soccer needs to cut ties with Hope Solo imo. Her comments following the loss to Sweden were disgraceful and an embarrassment to our great country.

First thing I said when I heard those comments. They need to cut her loose. Her mouth and her embarrassing public arrest have cost her millions and millions of dollars in endorsements, not to mention the embarrassment to the USA.

The entire team needs an infusion of youth at goalie, and at forward. Take the reigns off Dunn and Pugh and let them lead. Lloyd and Morgan do nothing for me.

Is the youth hot? You can't just replace Alex Morgan with some basic *****.

 

[Laparkafan]

I think people underestimated the leadership Abby Wombach provided and thought they could swap people in and replace her.

There a number of women pole vaulters who need some pics in this thread. I don't know how to use this tablet thing otherwise I would.......but for right now I'll violate the rules.

Rule #1 in the fight club: Pics or it didn't happen.

 

[Glenn's Take]

For all of us that care
Swiss beach volleyball team plays tomorrow at 2:00 pm.

Damn Germans!!!!!! I'm now not likely to see my favorite women's beach volleyball player ever (ever being the last week) again.

Just out of curiosity, is swimming the only event taking place every day/night? Love for NBC to show something different once in a while.

I dunno what provider you have but almost everything has been on TV. Olympics are also airing on NBCSports, USA, Bravo. Plus for DirecTV users, channel 205 has 8 screens up airing all live events.

 

[Anthony B]

This Max Holt feller what plays Volleyball for USA reminds me of a young Jared Prickett.

 

[Supreme Lord Z]

Canadian diver Jennifer Able. That *** tho'.

I didn't comment last night due to being under the influence of narcotics, but I'd still like to add my $.02.

Teeth whitening if she wants the big endorsement contracts. Just sayin.

Are we sure she didn't get out and smoke a cig to make those teeth yellow? She was definitely far enough ahead to.

I told my son watch this. She turns and wait for it...wait for it....wait for it....wait for it....wait for it....and finally someone hits the wall and changes direction. Those are the type of performances that make you proud to be an American.

Julie Foudy called her out pretty well on her comments. I think those like Foudy who busted their asses to build the program from nothing have had all they can take of Solo. Time for her to go. She's a cancer.

I was in the ocean today. Wife is on her period. She peed in the ocean with her tampon in. Do you think female swimmers do the same thing?

[Bkocats]

[WildcatFan1982]

USA won a gold in rowing

 

[herodotus6]

And bears.

Watching the long jump final. They all look like they are landing in the same place

 

[UKserialkiller]

Please tell me it wasn't the Atlantic. I was in there too.

New Smyrna beach. Tides were rough, prolly hit ya. Hope you were back stroking

 

[Supreme Lord Z]

Red tide. Roll Tide Roll!

 

[UKserialkiller]

Ha ha ha

 

[Guess Who]

Watching the long jump final. They all look like they are landing in the same place

How they can tell the incremental difference is beyond me

 

[Supreme Lord Z]

El Nino has nothing on Willy's old lady. The fish kill will stretch for miles. Exxon will be like "damn, that is a disaster!"

 

[UKwizard]

They all seem to be so close to the World Record but that has stood since 91 and the olympic record since 68.

 

[AustinTXCat]

USA men's BB living too dangerously. I sincerely hope they at least medal.

Anything less than the GOLD is unacceptable with this roster. Coach K's name is crap if they falter.

so you're saying there's a silver lining if they don't in the gold?

 

[MdWIldcat55]

There it is folks. Unless Phelps comes back in four years none of us will ever live to see a more remarkable Olympic performer.

 

[UKwizard]

Swimming is done and Phelps is done.

Very bittersweet moment. He's been my fav highlight of this Olympics.

 

[TortElvisII]

US 1 UK 2 AUS 3

Speaking English helps in the water.

 

[Supreme Lord Z]

God forgive me but I hope we lose in basketball. That's how much I hate Duke and Krycholsky. Sorry.

 

[UKwizard]

It seems the US is starting to slide back into complacency again. They going to have to hit rock bottom again to send the best players again?

 

[Guess Who]

Swimming is done and Phelps is done.

23 Gold Medals!

A fart on you and your silly hopes.

GO USA! GO COACH K!

Bolt looked like he was toying with the field. He looks over as he kicks into a gear nobody else in the world has. Late start, so so middle, then zooms right by everyone at the end liike he was trotting.

Usain Bolt: The Michael Phelps of running



...or maybe he's the Katie Ledecky of running

 

[AustinTXCat]

FIFY.

Like a cat playing with its prey before the sure kill.

How about this: I hope USA wins gold in basketball and Duke loses every game. That's easy enough. I'm not cheering against DeMarcus Cousins either. I have a tough enough time doing that every Kings/Knicks game.

Ryan Murphy's relay leg. That dude dominated. His Olympics have been as impressive as any individual's. Got better with each race too.
