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

A lot of doom and gloom in the first week but it all came together in the second week.

Happens every time. US events are back loaded so you get the complainers who never followed the Olympics before.

1-2 more gold medals compared to Tokyo is a "massive improvement"? LOL, I don't think so.

Yes finishing with 1-2 golds and 16 more medals overall is a massive improvement. 2nd best gold medal performance since 1992. Best overall medal count EVER. What is your nerd ass doing since you like to criticize our athletes? Stfu

So US is gonna lose volleyball… We are getting golds in womens cycling and basketball - is that is?

Maybe some miracle happens and Blades wins the gold in wrestling match. But she's not a match favorite.

 

[Numpsay]

Massive disappointment in the pool games for me. The swimming team and both water polo teams underperformed.

 

[Nero Christ]

$227000 with a free house and condo along with eating for free for life with health care? Mans is set

Exactly why some athletes represent other countries over the US.

Black chick for Italy been going crazy

Italians confused

 

[MikelArteta]

I still believed in sifan Hassan. Olympic record in the marathon after running the 5000m and 10000m and getting bronze, she got her gold

Told you. Much respect for Safan. I have never seen anyone do what she did and be successful.


The athlete of the games for this

Bronze in the 5k
Bronze in the 10k
Gold in the marathon (Olympic fukking record)

@MikelArteta. I CANNOT wrap my head around how fit you need to be to do this. Unbelievable

I dunno how she did it. Literally just had two days rest

 

[phillycavsfan]

Kennedy Blades loses. Valente is leading in the final cycling sprint so we're gonna end up tied with China most likely.

 

[NotAHotep]

This volleyball match. Straight belt to ass.

 

[MikelArteta]

Never stop believing

 

[BlackMajik]
