First place in men’s 100m was 9.79 seconds. Last place was 9.91 seconds. 0.12 second difference. Bolt’s world record is 9.58 seconds. 0.21 seconds clear of the field. I don’t see how that can be broken.
give it a little time, bob beamon’s record stood for 23 years and jarmila kratochvilova’s 800m record is still holding up after 41 years lol
unbelievable: the netherlands won gold with basketball at the olympics! lol
yayy another gold and a world record for the dutchies!
usa still just above china on top of the medal list:
Canada lost to France in men’s basketball. It was a bad matchuo. France might have the tallest team of all time.
USA has moved past China in golds. 
track and field is far superior.

I’m happy USA is ahead of China. I know China is likely to dominate the next century but I don’t have to like it.
yes, but you went ahead of china because of a womens freestyle wrestling and sailing gold lol
LOL@century.
I’m not laughing AT you, Reg. It’s just that they aren’t going to dominate anything for the next hundred years. Any dominant muscle they attempt to flex will be shot down in the next war.
Massachusetts alone is killing it.
yes i saw those races…very nice
thomas basically had no competition and that 1500m was funny but weird lol
the favourite norwegian dude thought he was so strong he could win from the start but in the end that brit overtook him and then the american hooker sneaked passed him on the inside and the other american came on the outside taking the bronze leaving the silly norwegian look like a fool 
cant wait for bol vs mclaughlin tomorrow
but first today our undefeated hockey women get a chance to go into the finals just like our men did… we are on schedule for 2 more golds (or at least 1certain silver)

yayy another gold in sailing for bouwmeester who is now the most succesful woman in sailing at the olympics
she did it with style; basically she won with a race to spare
update for reg since he loves hockey:
our undefeated hockey women are in the final on friday after easily beating argentina 3-0 where they meet china or belgium while our hockey men face a much tougher opponent in the final tomorrow against germany
You are seriously weird for getting this excited over sports, Nico.
i think getting excited over foreign graffiti is a little bit weirder lol
How come in men’s football they have to be younger than 23? Seems like a dumb rule. Looks like that is not the case for the women.
“The IOC decided to allow professional footballers to enter in the 80s, but the world governing body, FIFA, was against the idea because it didn’t want the Olympics to rival the World Cup so they compromised and made it an u23s tournament (with a three player maximum exception rule).”
inventor of the olympics, pierre de coubertin, was against women competing in the olympics up until he died in 1937, he said:
“The Games are the solemn and periodic exaltation of male sport – with the applause of women as a reward.”
I know you saw that one coming.
