2024 Olympics

[MrFlyingV]

I'm getting nervous we are running out of events and we can't let the Chinese bastards win the gold medal count through diving, table tennis and shooting.

No one gives a rat's ass about the sports they mostly win in.

Let’s hope two golds for the USA tomorrow in men’s hoops and women’s soccer. A doubleheader of sorts tomorrow.

We know China cheated for at least one gold in swimming in a medley with doped players. USA at least got their Beijing golds two years after they deserved them this week.

Women’s hoops probably will probably win gold too but there might be a protest since there is a dude on the team.

There's a news story about this woman. I'm not surprised to learn that she's the only Aussie breaker. I am surprised to learn that she actually won the Oceania breaking championship.

I guess the other dancer was Butters.

If she says "You just got F'ed in the A!" when they stick a mic in her face post-routine they should give her all the medals

Old man take incoming:

Breaking has no business in the Olympics.

So the nbc guy said China was at 25 with five likely golds left. They are currently at 36...

USA wins the Women’s 100 hurdles in an upset !

LOL- a little known story about these Olympics is that it will likely be both the first and last to feature breakdancing as a sport.

Australia, which produced one women's competitor did its part:

...is there a referee?

...is there a referee?

Maybe. Seems like a better event would be to see what referees could keep themselves from busting out laughing.

USA men win the 4x400 relay. Botswana made it damn close though

USA women destroy the competition to win the 4x400 Gold

They're probably bringing air guitar and karaoke competitions next.

 

[MrFlyingV]

USA shooting for shit.

 

[MrFlyingV]

Much better now. Wemby looked good early but has disappeared now.

 

[MrFlyingV]

Ok 20 for Wemby now.

 

[gobigred]

Stupid turnover at end of quarter. USA should be further ahead but France won’t go away.

 

[MrFlyingV]

Dumb turnovers at the end there. Wake up!!!!
