Oh, sorry. I'm not watching because Olympic basketball is so boring and everyone knows the US always blows everyone out on the way to gold.]8/11/2024 10:55:32 AM |

Tuned in at the end of the 3rd. Refs have been pretty terrible from what I’ve seen. 8/11/2024 11:02:39 AM |

Got 'em!
Suck on that, China!
Also a little odd that medals for global team sports are given equal weight to some obscure rifle or equestrian discipline, but whatever. 8/11/2024 11:27:54 AM |

I disagree. They were consistent in letting a lot of contact occur but they weren't making calls in favor of one team or the other. That's really all you can ask.8/11/2024 11:50:42 AM |

She became a meme in a bad way.
Her Australian PhD in breakdancing is probably equivalent to a Japanese associate degree in breakdancing. 8/12/2024 8:20:05 PM |

Was that a serious attempt she was doing? I thought it was a joke. 8/12/2024 8:52:20 PM |

She epitomized the difference between doing something in theory versus in practice. Classic academic attempting to do something in the real world. 8/13/2024 1:44:38 AM |

She literally trolled the whole world. I wouldn't feel bad for her, that's one hell of an accomplishment. 8/13/2024 8:30:39 AM |

Trolling requires intent, right? Did she "literally" intend to troll the whole world?
I watched some of the men's finals last night. I wanted to enjoy it, but I found it all pretty silly and fast-forwarded through most of it.
