The Official 2024 Paris Summer Olympics Thread (from July 26 - August 11) - Closing Ceremony replay at 7pm EST

Tonight was truly a legendary moment... been watching some old clips now...

Still my favorite 200M final.

Remember NBC posted Johnson's 100 m splits after the race. Dude clocked 9.32 at the 100 M mark

Preciate it....I seen the clips of SHFP talking to the bus driver
+



This is the first time I'm reading about a 1 hour walk

Yeah those French faggits pulled some bullshyt… any rules changes should have been addressed before the start of the Olympics.. these mofos just decided to make rule changes on the fly… not allowing athletes who aren’t staying in the Olympic village to warm up at the facility is some cheating bullshyt when the athletes who have other accommodations still have their credentials

"It's Noah Lyles?...OH MY GOD....NOOOO "

The hold on Jamaica no celebrate hold on got me I been coughing for 5 mins since I heard that part then the dude clapping them damn things to the beat the tv going out this is gold

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

Carl Lewis = Biles > Bolt

Bolt shoulda jumped on a hurdles or something

If you talking about 1 event though, the 100M >

Bolt is not a human being
He dominated 3 consecutive Olympics for a reason

 

[Bigwhite2498]

You’re contradicting yourself? How do you measure conviction? Its subjective. You say Noah lacks conviction but at the same time you say hes overly cocky and arrogant. How do you reconcile that? If someone is overly cockt and arrogant they clearly are convinced they will win. Just like Noah was.

Your points make no sense

I don’t think he understands what conviction means lmao

 

[MenacingMonk]

I thought Noah would be talking mad shyt on the victory interview, but he handled it well.

Nothing wrong with just wanting to compete as an athlete. But for a professional athlete, it seems the majority of the field doesn't really care about the media, growing the sport, or accessibility of the sport.

They asked open-ended questions to all of them, but Noah was the only one willing to answer. Several times throughout the post-conference, Kishane and Kerly had opportunities to speak, and they either said they were good or said nothing at all.

Anyone can say they’re this and that, but Lyles isn’t on this level. He’s not Ali on the mic and comparing Ali to Lyles is

Lyles is talented. I never said he wasn’t. I don’t know why you guys chose to argue over my own opinion over who can rock the mic better.

 

[Piff Huxtable]

another bs gold medal for China (shooting)

Thank you USATF

 

[Biscayne]

Lyles really ran Kishane down. Sheesh. It's like he hit the NoS button. To have the acceleration like Kishane did and to get run down like that. Damn!

 

[T-K-G]

That Brazilian diver tats and thick shes way thinner in this pic than she is right now at the olympics



Her thighs shutting the arena down every time she goes up immaculate

Norway pawgs

Bolt is not a human being

Bolt set Olympic and world records that still have not been touched. 3 straight gold medals dominating at a time whwn men were running the fastest times ever - gay, Blake, Gatlin , Powell killed them all
