China's endgame
Not to mention the Soviets probably send all of their unused steroids to China since they aren't needing themYokelRidesAgain said:
I hate to say it, but we need to get the Rooskies back in this thing. It's one thing to cede all the golds in table tennis and diving to China, but letting them dominate weightlifting, boxing, etc. as well becomes a lot to overcome. The remnants of the Soviet sports system give the Chinese some competition in these niche events.
instead of actually lifting, Americans care more about selfies in the gym or making vlogs… from looking at the Chinese women powerlifters I don't think their appearance ever crosses their mindYokelRidesAgain said:

Chinese powerlifters have won the same number of gold medals as the American bros who stare at themselves in the mirror: ZERO.
Pretty sure China has a better chance at Women's golf than we do, unless i'm reading the current standings wrong.
Their golfer is 1 back of the lead; our best golfer, Nelly Korda (who is far away #1 in the world) is 6 back with two rounds to go.JDUB08AG said:

Korda has had two very average rounds, but she has the ability to come back.

My bad. Didn't realize Korda blew up in the final 4 holes today. She was tied for 2nd this morning. Shooting a 7 on a Par is worse than what I do
Women's long jump gold for the US!

USA basketball down to Jokic and Serbia 42-25
USA retakes the medal lead 29-28, but we lost the 200 off the expected medal count and Men's basketball is getting destroyed
China's weightlifter fails at all three attempts in the clean and jerk and will not win his third gold!

Both Cockrell and Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone should be on the 400x4 relay. Especially if Bol runs for the Netherlands.
Oh, I think they're quite concerned with making sure their junk is well tucked away. I think they buy that special underwear from Target.taylorswift13_ said:

Down by 11 at the half. They can certainly turn it around if they get their s**t together at halftime.wangus12 said:

I watched the steroid-taking contest weightlifting on Peacock and it was pretty cool. Watching a 160 pound man get 440 pounds over his head is amazing.

My brother competes in power lifting still. At the local/regional level, its funny because they have organized Open (use steroids) events and then Closed (drug testing) events. Cracks me up

And Roberts wins silver!
Just need some Chinese boxers to get knocked out to finish the night
I know, my ex-father in law competed nationally in 65+ powerlifting. And yeah, he's on 'roids.wangus12 said:

The way he explained it to me, the Olympic stuff is way harder because of the agility and balance needed. Powerlifting is just brute strength.

Man, boxing runs late. It's after 10 pm in Paris and there are still multiple bouts to go.

Curry is on fire, but he needs some help
These guys are trying very hard. But the offense looks like trash. Like a college offense with no plan or good ideas.
Yeah, basketball is in deep trouble
China on to the gold medal match in middleweight foxy boxing.
If basketball loses this game, I propose an act of Congress to certify that LeFlop is NOT the GOAT.

We are playing a bunch of HoF geriatrics, riding them hard, and putting them away wet. The good news is that we're finally seeing the goal of 1992 come to fruition. We've sent our very best players, but they are old. The best players in the world right now are not American. Yes, we should still beat Serbia, but in a one-and-done, it's not even close to a sure thing. If the US played the world right now, imagine an international lineup with Luka, Joker, Wemby, Giannis, and SGA. Team USA might not win a game in a best of 7.PascalsWager said:

I support this. Jordan would never let this happen!
Love seeing these old dogs dig down.

Serbia will have to settle for the bronze medal match after a humiliating 4 point defeat.
Suck it, other countries! America owns the Olympics, and all you posers should stop trying to front!
