Suddenly found myself immersed in a Fencing match this morning
Lee Kiefer won the first Gold ever for the USA in this event.

I love international competition !

Yes, I’m sure she’s a woman.
The jury is still out on you though

Trump won shit, because both he, you, and everyone who still thinks like you, are a bunch of ****ing amateurs...up against the greatest forces of evil the world has ever seen.

I still can't get over how our team of perennial NBA all stars lost to France.

If they're unpatriotic self-centered bastards like many of them are, they probably threw the game.
Standing on the podium along side the American flag is beneath them.

I was reading comments by Damian Lillard saying one of the obstacles is the fact foreign born NBA players have a lot of pride when playing for their home countries and play extra hard. What he said pretty much backs up your statement. It probably doesn't help they are coached by Greg Popovich.

Sad to see Katie Ledecky beaten in the 400m freestlye...she settled for silver.

What an amazing swimmer she is though. She will also compete (and is the presumed gold medal favorite) in the 200m free, the 400m free relay, AND 1500m free.
Imagine a runner good enough to compete at 200m and 1500m...unheard of.

Can't wait for the Track & Field events to get going.
Indoor vollyball has become a favorite of mine.
Great action and athleticism.
