2024 Olympics- Paris

I suggest beach volleyball.

Canada Brandy….

 

In the Canada v Brazil Beach volleyball match the ladies got into a fuss with one another face to face at the net that went on a while. Then the PA guy played Imagine by John Lennon over the loudspeakers as the crowd swayed in the stands. Hilarious
Brazil wins
Brandy Canada - call me

 

No Ninja Warrior, smdh

 

She did in the first leg of the 4 x 400 relay in the Tokyo Olympics. Interestingly, so did Bol.

 

Potentially worse than the boxing controversy …

 

I don't know if anyone cares about the shotput, but it's been a disaster. It rained for both the men's and women's finals, and the Olympics had no way to deal with it. I watched the men's, and after the ran started, I think it was only 2 contestants were able to complete legal throws. It was like 2 out of the last 25 attempts were legal. Those big dudes were sliding out of the circle, and some were falling awkwardly looking like a broken leg waiting to happen. I saw the same happened yesterday for the women yesterday. During the men's final, they said "I'm sure they'll figure out how to move a canopy over the circle if it rains again". Looks like didn't ...

 

American women take soccer gold over Brazil 1-0. Out played most of first half, got a second half goal and held on.

US goalie was great with a couple of huge saves.

 

China is pulling away in gold medals… 37 to 34. I don’t know if there are enough events left for the US to catch up. Should get 2 more golds with the basketball games, though.

 

She's hot, she dominated the 200m in winning the gold medal and she has a degree in neurobiology and global health from Harvard and a Masters degree in epidemiology.

 

Stoppage time seemed to go on forever. Great win.

 

"Olympian"

She got 0 points from the judges.

 

wouldn't seem that difficult to build a cover over the ring to keep it dry..France really dropped the ball on several things in this Olympics, primarily the village and the food

 

Taiwan flag and signs banned in the Olympics event though they have people competing.

They share that honor with Belarus and Russia

IOC and the French being bullied by China. tired of people letting China dictate

Flags banned, signs ripped up: Why you can’t mention Taiwan at the Olympics (msn.com)

 

Elite athlete. What a joke.

 

Two very different halves. The US was lucky to escape the first half with a tie. Couple of big saves by the US goalie.

 

Watched too many Elaine Benes “How to Dance” videos

 

I doubt most here care but the DJs in the breakdancing competitions have been amazing.

And the men's final 4 were ridiculously good.

 

The Japanese breakdancer got hosed by the judges against the Canadian guy. Olympics are rigged. Boycott

 

American men won 4x400 in a tight finish with Botswana. Also win high jump.

American women destroy the field to take the 4x400 and set record.
