Olympic sports thread

This is the Tokyo we were hoping for

 

Same as this random Twitter guy, I’m trying to find those masks with the red nose piece. They look like they are fitted nicely.

 

we’ve got a new leader!

 

Bermuda is devastated. Although Gold > Bronze

 

I’m gonna declare my allegiance to the Vatican (after I go buy my Olympic recurve bow).

 

Announcer of the canoeing (really kayaking) Just explained how the sport worked by saying, “The top time will win the gold medal but all three of the top three times will win medals...”

(...in case you had never heard of “the Olympics” before that moment.)

 

Today I learned John Madden is an Olympic kayak announcer

 

men's volleyball USA v Brazil tonight 10pm
women's volleyball USA v ROC tomorrow 10pm
ROC women just beat China in a great match

 

San Marino winning a medal in anything is insane

 

Lot's of track and field heats tonight. Starts ~8pm

I would like the record to show that the Peacock app is borderline fucking useless for the Olympics

 

I won't go useless, but it's buggy and generally a PITA to deal with. I kinda like Tokyo tonight as opposed to regular NBC coverage.

 

Why did CONCACAF schedule this game against the Olympics?

 

I love the track and field events. Especially early on. The disparity from the elite and the just happy to be there competitors shows how elite the best in the world really are.

 

It's actually a very CONCACAF thing to do

 

You should try out the NBC Sports app. That worked for me.

 

Track and Field finally

 

They milk gymnastics for all its worth. Commericials between every competitor.

 

Siap thread moves too fast.
This commercial is something
Probably piss off Clay and Tucker

 

Dressel's gotta have a big ole dick

 

Rowdy is something

 

Are they not going to show the end of the all around???

 

Good race

 

I don’t even think Athing elevated her pulse during that run

 

Wow, that girl seemed legit shocked that she won. Maybe, it was the WR.

 

That’s a solid silver bronze. Lily swam a heck of a race

 

Lazor telling the South African she is amazing is honestly really sweet stuff

 

The South African was the one that was really happy when Jacoby won, so it’s kinda nice to see her get one.

 

Pretty sure it was the WR, she was the far and away favorite for the event.

 

Yeah def the WR

 

I will take it. Fucking Russians though

 

Murph almost chased him down

 

Rylov’s got that dope blood left over

yeah I am pretty surprised that WR is still alive

 

I assume all Russians are on the sauce

 

200 back is by far the toughest 200 imo

 

I dont expect us to medal here
