July 31, 20214 yr I gagree with a lot of this....I mean shit more fucking golf and tennis that shit is always on I doubt soccer would go away and as an American we are not beat down with it as much and other places love it so I can see it one thing that really sucks is this emphasis on having the females do the same new events as the males.....the BMX freestyle women would be thrashed by any decent 15yo weed smoking male.......shit some of them I could have done 90% of their tricks which consisted of jumping on the ramp.....a back flip was like woooooaaa.....meanwhile the guys are doing all kind of crazy shit the women look mostly like a kid at the park with a new bikeThose women BMX racers are pretty badass though.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

July 31, 20214 yr I haven't been watching closely, but it seems like the programming information in the guide (both at home with Dish, and staying in a hotel) has hardly ever been accurate with regard to what event is on what channels or when. Are other people noticing this too?

Olympic rugby is 7s. I didn’t realize that there was a difference. How do they breakdown Rugby 7s? Quarters? Halves? Shorter halves? Shorter halftime? They still let the clock run, don’t they?
July 31, 20214 yr Incoming Horn Hailey Hernandez is diving on NBC in the semis. I don't think it's live but I don't know if she advanced. 17 minutes ago, Napoleon said: I didn’t realize that there was a difference. How do they breakdown Rugby 7s? Quarters? Halves?

July 31, 20214 yr Were there always this many ads for drug companies featured Olympic athletes in them? *Ryan Murphy does not take Emgality Edited July 31, 20214 yr by mdmost
July 31, 20214 yr So are we going to rage against Djokovic withdrawing himself right after his singles loss/tantrum, costing his doubles partner a chance to compete and medal? Or is that only reserved for Biles? Just checking

July 31, 20214 yr Probably worse. His partners chance is over, dick move. Edited July 31, 20214 yr by ChickenSandwich

July 31, 20214 yr Raven Rodger waited almost too long to turn it on in the 800m women’s semi. She passed like 3 people in the last 20 yards and squeaked in. Edited July 31, 20214 yr by Hook1997

Probably in the 60%-79% range in daylight. Absolutely miserable conditions. In hindsight, Djokovic never should have entered the mixed doubles draw. Hubris + Nationalism + Tokyo Humidity = ZERO MEDALS
July 31, 20214 yr Too much volleyball on today. Thankfully I can get some obscure sports on the NBC Sports app.
July 31, 20214 yr 3 hours ago, ChickenSandwich said: He’s certainly not the GOAT of tennis. Wrong if you know anything about tennis. Objectively, he has played in the Fedal Era his whole career and won despite it. No doubt he will end up with more slams than any other male. He's a gigantic asshole on the court, and difficult to like, but he is a great player. The GOAT.
July 31, 20214 yr Never said he isn’t a great player, and that is a highly debatable opinion when you add “of all time.” Ill take peak Sampras on hard or grass, for my eyeballs. Can’t speak to earlier era, equipment and differences in the game. Edited July 31, 20214 yr by ChickenSandwich

Well it had nothing to do with mental health at all but some kind of condition that from time to time will happen to gymnasts where they lose their sense of direction and it becomes dangerous to perform. Certainly did not stop everybody from writing their hot takes without knowing shit about what was going on. I knew it was something pretty serious for a champion like Simone to drop out. As for your gender nationalist hateful shit, fuck you and your narrative. Plenty of us have been nothing but supportive of Simone.

Most of the big articles and opinion pieces that have been out there criticizing her have been written by men. I am not saying fuck all men. I am saying fuck those that used their platform to bash her. Looking at you Piers Morgan, Aaron Reitz (he has since apologized but fuck him), Charlie Kirk, Michael Che, Michael Bisping, etc.. That was not a call out of all men. And yeah, the Twisties are a mental block. You could be seriously hurt if you compete while you have them.

August 1, 20214 yr That Chinese guy that’s 37 and just won gold in weight lifting is juiced to the gills. How does somebody like that get by the drug testing?
August 1, 20214 yr Has anyone else watched the Kevin Hart and Snoop daily Olympics show on peacock? That shit is funny. Snoop talking about skeet shooting highlights. “I got a couple gold medals in skeet shooting but it ain’t that kinda skeet. Skeet skeet skeet motherfucker!” Yea it’s rated R for mature lol
