[Magnetic Curses]

Dong Dong and the Trampoline sounds like a really good book for children.

[Guest]

Oh, look. Britain lost in PKs again. How hilarious.

[bukie]

Not a single Euro team in the semis.

[Guest]

This Russian volleyball tandem is really easy to hate.

The 10k was phenomenal earlier! Galen Rupp becomes the 3rd American to medal in that distance since 1900.

The end was amazing, with the two training partners winning Gold and Silver. What a great moment.

Rupp is [expletive] amazing. More amazing than Rupp was the finish in the women's 10k. A 62 second final 400m after running almost 6 miles? From a woman? Insane.

 

Also, the Czech women's beach volleyball team is really easy on the eyes!

Swimming gold medals:

 

USA: 16

Every other country in the world: 16

i watched the woman's 10k and that lady just broke everyone else down.

[Andy]

Pretty ridiculous that the women's triathlon comes down to a photo finish.

[USSoccer]

Watch Murray bottle it here.

[Tracer Bullet]

So Federer was just throwing the match or what?

[Magnetic Curses]

britain is winning an obnoxious amount of golds. reminds of canada's little medal puke a couple years ago.

[Magnetic Curses]

and maroney loses the gold medal despite the fact that she's twice as good as anyone else on the vault.

 

annoying.

[Derwood]

It seems that the primary defensive strategy in Water Polo is using your fattest player to drown the opposition

[Magnetic Curses]

i've also seen several karate chops

[Derwood]

The whistle is blown every 5 seconds. This is madness

[Guest]

Feel good for Murray. He doesn't have a major yet but I have to imagine this win feels just as good.

Am I imagining it, or does the host country typically turn in more golds than usual?

No you're not imagining it. Host countries outperform.

Men's 100M Final about to start!

Great run by Bolt. Second fastest time ever with a 9.63. Blake was second in 9.75.

 

Looking forward to Bolt-Blake part 2 in the 200 on Wednesday.
