Scott. Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Yeah Morgan is cute. Welsh name so I'm claiming her. Hope Solo is an awful bastard though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Ledecky is 19!! She could catch Phelps right? She's so far ahead of any other female it's ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capsov Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 She could absolutely catch up to Phelps. Crazy thing is, that my home state, if it was a country, would have the second most gold medals right now behind the US. Both phelps and ledecky grew up here.

They have a really good first week with the swimming but don't win too much when it comes to the track and field. 24 million isn't really that small. It's no India or China though.

Yeah it's not small but they do pretty well going up against countries like China, US and Russia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch. Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 And compare that to the 300mil in the U.S. We do alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Fiji are incredible at 7s. The 7s were great fun and GB did amazing to get a silver after only being together as a team for weeks rather than years. Australia do great, mainly due to the lifestyle. Everybody is so active over there and the weather is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meltdown Tracker Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Just got back from a camping trip so I haven't watched much. Obviously what Phelps has done is insanely impressive. Also really impressed by Penny Oleksiak for Canada. 4 medals in swimming and has already set the record for most individual medals for a Canadian in a summer olympics. And she's 16. Her brother also plays in the NHL, really athletic family. Really looking forward to watching more of women's soccer. Always the most exciting thing to follow in the summer olympics as a Canadian. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patient #48273 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Yeah, beat France in the quarterfinals yesterday. Need to beat Germany (again) to get to the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan_ Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Does anyone else here think sports like tennis, rugby and golf should be dropped from the Olympics? Tennis especially. They have four major tournaments during the year and I'm sure the top players like Novak and Serena had their minds set on the US open which starts soon. To me the Olympics are about the sports you only get to see this competitively every four years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really excited for surfing, skateboarding, and rock climbing potentially being in the 2020 Olympics though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I love playing and watching golf, I really hope it sticks around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch. Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I like the golf. Though I think they should change it to a matchplay/foursomes event and it make it similar to the Ryder and President's cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
