As expected, China picks up gold medal #39 in the final event of women's boxing.

The US will need 40 golds to take this.
Honestly we need 41. China will probably win weightlifting tomorrow. Unless you are considering a tie means we win.
40 is good enough. We have way more silver and bronze.

His main guy wears that flag - just a nod to him.
Screw his main guy and screw him, too. If he was on the French payroll that would be one thing. The last national team coach cheering for the other side in the gold medal game is a bad, bad look.

Pop probably wants Jean Luc Melenchon to hold him.


Okay, I'm not a fan of all Pop's antics but I also don't believe the Olympics, especially with this basketball team, requires 100% patriotic commitment when you have a personal connection to a player on another team. Contrary to common belief, this isn't war.

Personal connection? He coached 5 of the US players at the last Olympics.

And it's not like these Olympics were in freaking Houston. Pop decided to get on a plane and fly across the Atlantic Ocean to root against his own country.

As far as I'm concerned he can stay there. He would probably be happier anyway.

His star player, who is a great guy by the way, was playing on the world stage, someone he is coaching and mentoring daily. Settle down a bit.

Mike Tirico is the best. Seems really down to earth and likeable. Right up there with Al Michaels in my book.

Unless he was wearing Star Spangled face paint I support him being deported, and I don't want to hear any namby pamby liberal mumbo jumbo about him being a natural born citizen.

My gosh, those last two games, against Serbia and France, nothing like high-pressure high-level basketball. Tremendous skill and desire with everybody on the court.

Jordan Chiles should tell the IOC and CAS to shove it. Keep the medal and refuse to give it back.

Ridiculous ruling that she missed the protest time allowed by 4 seconds. The issue was caused by the judges to begin with and she deserved the medal. One minute to determine the scoring is accurate for an event you've trained 4 years for is absurd anyway. Not saying it should be much longer but thats pretty short when you have 30 elements in a routine to see if they got them all.

She might be retiring anyway she is 23.

We have a chance in the women's omnium (cycling) tomorrow as well. Italy has looked very strong in volleyball; I think the wrestling gold will be critical.

Of course, it would also help if the Chinese woman pulled her arms off in weightlifting.

Watching women's 81kg weightlifting. Sadly this is looking like a lock for China as her starting weights are significantly higher than most of the others' third attempts. The Korean is 5kg behind after snatch round.

China's Li Wen Wen clinched gold with her 173 kg C&J, dang. Our American Mary Lappen finishes in 5th!

Jennifer Valente of the US is in first going into the points race in the women's omnium!

Kennedy Blades wrestles for gold momentarily.

US is about to go down two sets to none in the volleyball final, so looks like we have to have at least one of cycling or wrestling.

Ugh, the IOC announced that Jordan needs to return her medal. Just ridiculous.
