um dont know what you are saying its just annoying that they cut in the middle of the gymnastics, plenty of channels

He is saying that gymnastics and swimming are 2 of the major 3-4 sports that NBC will make sure they air in prime time. First, they cant force the IOC to broadcast everything live just for the US time zones. Gymnastics are much easier to air on tape with so many dead air breaks in between routines. Swimming (like track) needs to be live.

NBC cant air both of them live at the same time, fam. Someone has to be taped, and they are trying to cater to a bigger audience then people who have cable (hence the app that you dont want to get)

Also, the swimming are for medals tonight, while the gymnastics is just qualification.

Le Clos has to be so fukkn disappointed.

Everyone gassed him. He thought he had the race until the last lap and a half. Literally lost medal contention the moment he came off that second to last turn. It was over and he ain't even know it.
