And your gaslighting has been old from the beginning. We're not talking about other sports, we're talking about swimming.

It has been an unmitigated disaster in the pool for Team USA at these Olympics. They'll finish with their lowest gold medal count in who knows how long. Also, the fact that no individual USA male has won gold in any other event yet is surprising.
I don’t agree that it’s been a disaster tbh it’s not like they aren’t swimming well there were a couple of American records broken. the world is catching up with America to an extent but that’s only because America is letting the world catch up most of these athletes either go to college here or train here so it makes sense to not be as dominant

Horan singlehandedly ruining this game for the USA. Bad on offense and bad on defense.

On the good side Lavelle has been masterful. Even made a back pass on the ground :mjlol:

It's been a disaster in terms of the standard for USA swimming, which is winning gold. Even swimmer Bobby Finke said after winning silver in the 800 m that he was the "first loser".

Other countries have caught up (mainly Australia), but this is still very disappointing.

That Germany blowout for the USWNT was a gift and a curse. It showed other teams what happens when you don’t defend in a low block against them.

US simply don't have the players to break down a low block.
