Its unbelievable what Bolt did to the world of athletics. Everything about him - his athleticism, attitude, personality, perfect performance, appearance is from another world. If anyone asks me 30 years from now what sport is about i will show them a clip of Bolt running. Can't believe i was around to witness all these 9 gold medals, true bonjwa.
even his name is befitting of his style. literally can't make it up. what a beast

Struggling to find video highlights anywhere... I hate television. How are you guys watching?
olympics is heavily syndicated, expensive too. so media companies do everything they can to protect their content. a local australian channel has everything live and VOD for free. otherwise, usually BBC is the best option.

Serbian women finishing the 3rd quarter against France in basketball with a 13 point lead.
Match for the bronze btw. We have 4 teams competing in team sports at the Olympics and 3 are already in their finals, this would make a 4th medal.

USA wins their first ever gold in triathlon

Boooom baby, we got the bronze! Great stuff

Dutch ladies losing the volleyball and handball games for bronze and the hockey for gold (where they completely outplayed GB). Disappointing few days.

This modern pentathlon is a joke. Each athlete gets to horse which is supplied by the organizers. Not sure if he's ever seen it before. Then they are supposed to do a show jumping ride. But here in Rio, some horses care and some dont. It's a giant lottery, and if you get the wrong horse, you're basically out. Happened to the german female gold favorite yesterday, is bound to happen today to the male one, so I'm especially salty.
And modern pentathlon was on the brink of being thrown out of the olympics before.

the pentathlon had that horse problem before, its not the first time.

No. Probably 10x more money in US basketball than all the other countries combined.

49 straight wins (6 gold medals). the next longest streak all time they said was like 16 games. I'm not sure there's anything closer to a guaranteed gold

Well USA dominated softball for a very long time too but then Japan won in 2008.
So it can happen if other countries try to

There is just impossible for the goalkeeper to get it.

Thats the men's team though.
Womens basketball outside the US is a meme compared to the WNBA, at least in Europe men have the Euroleague to pump serious money into the sport.

OK, looked it up and your mens team has a 51 win streak (they lost against Greece in 2006), got them mixed up. Women have a longer gold streak
