Fourth gold of the day in foil, and the 2nd US doubles team knocks off the British to advance to the semifinals!

Made up considerable ground today…
Would be great to shock the Australians in the 4 x 200 relay, but it's a tall order.

US women's relay gets silver! Ledecky was a beast on her leg, as always.
Would have been nice to make the Aussies eat their **** after their trash talking, but solid race by the Americans.
My picture of gold medalist Kate Douglas from a few minutes ago. Tonight was UNBELIEVABLE. Yes we've won more before but to see an American kid win live is unforgettable. Everyone should come to a swim meet at a foreign Olympics. It was AWESOME
US men 3x3 basketball falls to 0-4, playing short-handed due to an injury to Jimmer Fredette.
In other news, why the hell is Jimmer Fredette on this team? We could probably have done better by picking four guys from a pick up game at Rucker Park in Harlem.
Certainly couldn't have done worse.

Finally got around to watching evening coverage of the days events.
Can we please, please get rid of the awful wolf turn or whatever it's called in gymnastics? I absolutely hate it.

Can you do a wolf turn
Can anyone on here do a wolf turn???

I'd pay to see all of us try to get on a balance beam
Does whether i can personally do one or not change that it very obviously looks awful, even to most actual gymnasts? They admittedly only do it because they get extra points for it and almost no deductions if they do it badly.
No I get where you're coming from, many attempt it and it looks poorly compared to others… although when pulled off gracefully it looks great!
Totally get that, and at least I think it looks better on beam than on floor. But unfortunately the scoring system is set up to incentivize them, even a bad wolf turn gets a tiny deduction.
Breakdancing is not a sport...stupid. Said this from the beginning .
Peace for Ukraine!
Does it get better if they use the DJ from Kyle Field to throw down the beat?monarch said:

(I have no idea if we're actually going to win the gold, but it sounds good to me.)
The mixed 4 x 100 swimming relay final is this afternoon, and will be fun to watch. You can have 2 men and 2 women in the 4 strokes, in any configuration you choose. Watching the Chinese men's 100 m freestyle world record holder try (and fail) to chase down an American girl in the prelims was amusing.

Men's soccer down 0-2 3 to Morocco. US defense looks bad today.

Get a kid off the streets of Harlem and we'll win easily.
Peace for Ukraine!

Sad to see soccer getting outclassed and out hustled.
Offense can't keep possession or connect passes together. Just kicking and praying, no creativity. Mor's D is pressuring, and we have no answer. They are taking away everything underneath, and we are forcing vertical balls- which they are beating us too.
And on the back end, our D is Charmin soft. Sitting back, and letting Mor run right at us. Defenders often. Getting caught in between the ball and the runner, not deciding to take either away or challenge the run.
We can't win a 50/50 ball. They are working harder and look 2 steps faster than us.

Don't underestimate the athleticism of Morocco. After all, this is a country with 7 gold medals in its history across all sports
An absolute honor to be in the stand as an Ag wins an Olympic medal!
I'll say this. We got our ass beat, but Morocco do have the best player in the Olympics in Hakimi. What a bad showing though
I had to do a double take when watching her shoot because I didn't know she was an Aggie. Was watching on the close up of her as she was aiming and thought "she has an Aggie ring on while shooting!" Thought that was cool even though most of the world would have missed it.
Women's US fencing just got first gold medal ever in team foil. Get the NIL factory going…

Several Aggies swimming in the 200M IM. DeBever (Peru) and Pickrem (Canada).
US just destroyed the world record in the 4 x 400 m mixed relay (track and field) by over a second. In a heat, no less! Apparently the track is not slow like the pool.
Looked like Secretariat at the Belmont.
