Had a whole bunch of chances we should've finished and Sweden had a good goal taken away. We deserved to lose.

How were they cowards? They played fair and square, and won. What a brat.

8/13/2016 7:00:47 AM

Her issue is she is mentally unstable.

8/13/2016 8:15:11 AM

It's like running 4 corners in basketball (when it was legal). Yeah its within the rules, but you're a pussy cheating piece of shit coach for playing that way. Maybe. I dunno. Soccer's stupid.

8/13/2016 8:39:18 AM

^ wait, what? how did the swedes play?

8/13/2016 9:08:54 AM

Greatest swim team of all time

8/13/2016 10:44:19 PM

^^ every time they got the ball they picked it up and hid it under their shirts and ran around yelling, "look I'm a fat American," then punted the ball into the stands, they added several extra minutes in injury time to offset but the tactic was effective. Most cowardly display of sport I've ever seen.

Kooch has a -6 under round to get into the bronze metal spot. Bubba at -1 and -7 for the tourney, but 9 to play

I didn't realize they competed in the same sport.

Ledecky >>> Bolt

8/15/2016 8:48:39 AM

US women's beach volley team is just amazing to watch. Kicking so much ass.

The Brazil vs Switzerland match up earlier on Sunday was incredibly. Got pretty heated and the Swiss (17 seed) almost upset Brazil (1 seed), would have been nuts.

Also, both Swiss teams are quite attractive

8/15/2016 9:01:03 AM

Were the people on the swiss team speaking to each other in German, French or English?

8/15/2016 9:46:10 AM

I've seen the American women's volleyball team play twice, first game we were getting rekt until the other team's player dove and got hurt, they never looked remotely the same after that. We dominated the next game I saw.

8/15/2016 10:18:23 AM

^^I couldn't tell. English I think.

^what country was that? I'm pretty sure I've watched every match of theirs that's been on TV and I don't recall what you're referring to.

in a foot race, sure. Otherwise, not sure what you could possibly mean by this.

8/15/2016 11:26:19 AM

I saw that game. We weren't getting wrecked it was basically tied or close to it late in the 3rd set when the other player got hurt. So it was close until that point.

8/15/2016 11:26:45 AM

^^he's trying to say that Bolt is the more dominate Olympian. I have a hard time believing that, personally.

8/15/2016 12:17:40 PM

Why not?

There are significantly less events for Bolt to compete in than there are for Phelps, and Bolt has completely dominated his sport in a way that has never been done before: winning every race with ease and setting world records while celebrating before the finish line.

8/15/2016 12:22:20 PM

Silly hyperbole

8/15/2016 12:27:22 PM

I've really enjoyed watching indoor volleyball this Olympics.

[Edited on August 15, 2016 at 12:44 PM. Reason : /]

8/15/2016 12:39:55 PM

^^^ Bolt has 7 gold medals in three games. Yes, that's very impressive and he's utterly dominated his events, but Phelps has won 23 golds and 28 medals overall. In Beijing alone, Phelps won more golds than Bolt has total. Phelps has also set 39 world records, way more than Bolt. It's a dumb comparison.

team handball makes me lol

8/15/2016 1:33:39 PM

Not to mention in Beijing phelps set a Wr in every event he raced in except 1... They're both absurdly dominant but 28 medals is in a different stratosphere regardless.

8/15/2016 1:38:09 PM

^wasnt beijing the bodysuit games where all records were crushed though?

It was the Swiss. We won the first set easily, they got on a roll and took the 2nd set. The third set they came out strong and we were behind and then one of their players took a nasty dive and appeared to get something similar to whiplash and they completely fell apart after that.

Maybe "rekt" was a bad term, but we looked very beatable the entire 2nd and 3rd set up until the injury.

8/15/2016 2:01:37 PM

if Bolt could run 100m a half-dozen slightly different ways each olympics i'm sure his medal count would be higher

I knew it was too good to be true.

The first time I watched, I got an hour to watch for free, but I did not know as I couldn't see the timer. I only watched a few minutes, and lost the rest.

Since then, I only get few minutes daily. Then it asks me to sign in using my cable subscription. (don't have)

Everybody here got cable? Any way to watch without a cable subscription?

8/15/2016 2:38:43 PM

^use a vpn and access cbc's website.

I've found free streams online for USA men's basketball on reddit's r/nbastreams.

8/15/2016 2:43:13 PM

I'd say Phelps and Bolt are pretty similar. Both hold world records in their respective "main" events (100 and 200M sprints for Bolt...100 and 200M Butterfly for Phelps).

Phelps has a ton of additional medals for all of the relays and different strokes he can swim...but I imagine Bolt would have a similar number if they could run track with slight variations.

Only reason I would give the edge to Bolt is because his WR in the 100M is so far ahead of everyone that it's ridiculous. I think the announcers quoted a statistical study of the progression of the 100M world record over the years and how's its incrementally gotten lower. They said that sprinters weren't suppose to reach Bolt's time for another 30 years. He's THAT much faster than everyone else.

Phelps is a beast...but he's not a Bolt-like beast.

8/15/2016 3:27:13 PM

They're pretty similar except that Phelps has 4x as many Olympic medals overall and 3x as many golds and has broken more world records. Playing that "what if" game is dumb.

8/15/2016 3:34:17 PM

comparing medal counts between the two is pointless. Even if Zeus almighty came down from his mountain and competed in sprinting, he wouldn't be able to get as many medals as a competitive swimmer.

[Edited on August 15, 2016 at 3:48 PM. Reason : h]

8/15/2016 3:36:55 PM

comparing two athletes who compete in completely different sports is stupid, but I wasn't the one who brought it up in the first place. but if you're going to try and compare them, there's no contest if you go by medal counts since it's the only quantitive way to even compare them.

You could go by WR counts

[Edited on August 15, 2016 at 3:56 PM. Reason : V yeah just noticed that]

8/15/2016 3:54:11 PM

he HAS won golds in relays. 2 of his 7 golds are from the 4x100. and Phelps has set more WRs (yeah, I know he's competed in more events)

[Edited on August 15, 2016 at 3:57 PM. Reason : ^nice ghost edit. ]

8/15/2016 3:55:57 PM

Or you could just not compare them at all? Not sure why that idiotic post blew up.
