It's not like the fact that many athletes are doping makes for poor viewing. It just sucks from an integrity standpoint that you're more or less 'punished' for trying to compete honestly. | ||

I'll still prefer NFL over Rugby, but this is a damn awesome sport that I'll try to start following. | ||

Prevent those when you can, but realize that they are part of the event and don't react with a disproportionate outrage that ruins things for everyone. I don't see too many people acting with outrage. In the places I do, it's where people see large scale potential mass cheating. That, to me, is a reasonable thing to be upset over. | ||

Feel bad for US, the match against them was by far the hardest but they only finished 5th cause we met in the quarterfinals.

I was sad today to realise that Larisa Iordache was injured  my favourite gymnast. | ||

Every Single Time Brazilian swimmers die in the last 15 meters. Is there any other explanation than bad training? "resources" doesn't work, because government invested a ton of money in swimming and judo these olympics. Edit: I firmly believe we will close this olympics with the worst host performance in history. | ||

A lot of 4th and 5th place for them Could be the team strategy to give all at the start and then try to keep the lead. The best swimmers sometime do the opposite and keep resource for the last 30-20 meters to do a last push. | ||
