Was just reading this article/conversation, can't say I don't agree with some of their points. Osaka losing, Biles leaving, and men's basketball team disappointing have definitely had a huge impact on these games and likely will for the remainder of them. Not to mention the major time difference cuz not a lot of y'all are able to stay up late and enjoy some of the events live. Hopefully it's easier next time around in Paris. Let's see what happens the rest of these games and if they continue to build stars and captivate the audience.

This Milak dude is dangerous.

Also, USA Swimming has fallen off. This might be the worst USA Olympic swim team in a long time.

Yeah I mean at one point usa had lochte, dressel, nathan adrian, cullen jones, phelps, Connor Jaeger ish was like the avengers

Yeah true. I didn't know about Shacarri until the whole controversy but I know that will have a big impact on that sport. We can just put an asterik on these games cuz of covid if America doesn't lead in gold and overall medals. :mjgrin:
