Benjamin would've had the world record. No shame in that silver

One of the longest standing records in track gets bested multiple times (by 2 almost 3 different people) in the span of what...a month?

That was ridiculous. I thought Rai had him with 50 to go.

Some great performances tonight. Women's LJ was fantastic right down to the wire.

Call your shots on the 200m final for the men. I can't tell how muy Knighton let off in his heat but I have been in Team Bednarik all summer, I think he gets it.

Somewhere Ben Johnson is saying "dude, i think you maybe should have dialed it back just a bit"

You know who I have the least confidence in? Lyles. But I like your style

I can't argue with that! I had no faith he would make the team, and now NBC is jinxing him with all the commercials lol

What's up with Michael Norman? He just doesn't look right.

US can have a strong medal pickup tomorrow with the women's 800, hammer throw, and 200! And hopefully one in the pole vault!

The guy cut 3 seconds off what he ran in 2016. Almost 2 seconds off what he ran in the 2019 World Championships. Save these samples for later
This is misleading. Prior to 2016 he was a decathlete. And in 2016 he still wasn't fully specialized on the 400 hurdles. He was running 100, 200, 400 and even a little long jumping. He was 20.

His season best in 2019 was 46.92. At the World Championships he ran 47.42.

So they show almost every heat but left the mixed relay out of the primetime show? Is there a video of it somewhere?

James looked really good, and honestly I wouldn't hate to see him win. Would be a great story with all he's battled.

In fairness both the prelim and final are very ugly for the US which is I'm sure why they didn't merit primetime coverage...watch at your own risk:

Prelim 67:27 Track & Field: S3 | Final: M 10,000m; Rnd 1s: Mixed 4x400m, W 5000m; & more (nbcolympics.com)
Final 162:13 Track & Field: S5 | Finals: Women's 100m, Mixed 4x400, Men's Discus; & more (nbcolympics.com)

We are entering Day 12 of the Olympics and 12 pages into this thread alone. How many times are we going to ask the same question and the answer is always nbcolympics.com or the NBC Sports app. It's the only place guaranteed to watch every event live.

It won't be shown live on network television, but you can see it on the NBC Sports App or nbcolympics.com for free with a television subscription such as dish, spectrum, etc. or you can use the 30 minute free trial which should cover Athing's race!

Well Mr. Warholm may just have to forgive my skepticism at essentially breaking a WR older than him by .8 seconds

The US relay coaches thought it would be better to run the other guys who placed higher in the Olympic trials smh! Deadmon while jogging the last 30 meters since he opened up a huge lead ran 44.5 in his prelim split, while the two top guys went 44.3 and 44.9 all while trying to catch someone and failing to do so! With Deadmon running from behind I believe he had the potential to split 43.5-43.9 and get us a gold!
