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.

Tuned in at the end of the 3rd. Refs have been pretty terrible from what I’ve seen.

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.

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.

She became a meme in a bad way.

Her Australian PhD in breakdancing is probably equivalent to a Japanese associate degree in breakdancing.

Was that a serious attempt she was doing? I thought it was a joke.

She epitomized the difference between doing something in theory versus in practice. Classic academic attempting to do something in the real world.

She literally trolled the whole world. I wouldn't feel bad for her, that's one hell of an accomplishment.

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.

"While the U.S. and China tied for gold in Paris, it's Team USA and then everyone else in the all-time gold medal count. The U.S. is up to 1,110 Summer Olympic gold medals all-time, nearly three times as many as the No. 2 country on the list and nearly four times as many as any existing nation."


USA!!1

She literally did not. I don't think you know what trolling means.
