haven't seen any swimming today but caught the volleyball game

I think if it wasn't for Carmelo Anthony the U.S. Would've lost that game against Australia...it was a tough win.

Durant, Klay, Draymond, DeAndre, Lowry, Boogie and DeRozen are all so busy taking in the sites in Rio (which there was a story that DeAndre, Boogie and DeRozen inadvertedly visited a brothel), supporting other Olympic events and posting it on social media, that YES they did nearly lose to Australia yesterday. I'm glad that they are obviously bonding with each other but it's time that they take this a little more seriously. The Australians (even though they play incredibly dirty) have woke them up, so perhaps they will start taking this seriously going forward.

Other than this, I'm waiting on track and field to begin. I always love watching it. Gives me motivation to hit the gym.

Who's watching it trynna see Phelps [Edited 8/10/16 18:16pm]

Phelps is amazing in the water but I don't watch his interviews 'cause he's so doofus and funny looking. All those cupping circles on his back look icky too.

My favorites are always the gymnastics and track and field events.

How do we play dirty?

Did you watch the game? There was a lot of unnecessary hard fouling on Australia's part which in turn caused the US team to retaliate in a simliar fashion. It was also suspect how the majority of the fouls called were primarily on the US team. I wasn't surprised that Delladedova (or however you spell it) was playing this way, he's normally a dirty player in the NBA just the same, but Bogut surprised me. Anyway, the positives are that this particular game was at least watchable due to the close score for the whole game. The US stepped their game up and beat them so all they need to do is continue playing with the same intensity.

Usain Bolt!!!

My boy Bolt won yet again!!! Love him!!!! It was great to see that it wasn't a total landslide though....Justin Gatlin almost had him.

Nurse, what is your drug of choice?

Allison Felix was robbed of her gold for the 400m. How in the world does the IOC allow a competitor to DIVE at the finish line instead of running for it? Seems shady to me. Just surprised that this is allowed.

Plus he is a Ravens fan

I think a big problem of having an All Star team is that they don't have chemistry. Maybe they should have a competition for the Olympic Basket ball team. How about the the team that wins the NBA championship that year plays an all star team for a winner takes all in going to the Olympics.

Phelps is a beast of a swimmer, and Katie Ledecky is INHUMAN!!!!
