Yes- but it’s not like the US team was bad.  That girl from Netherlands was INCREDIBLE!!
that's what I'm saying.  4X400 is almost always thrilling, every level.  Middle school, HS, collegiate, Intl.     that was a fun race.  NED anchor was sub 48.  amazing run.

Definitely the capper after sitting through three hours of high school track.

Has to watch the replay because we were out doing school shopping. The 400 was great, and the rain really looked cool too. The girl from St. Lucia was a beast, too.

Hmm, didn’t realize, but former Badger Aleem Ford is playing for the Puerto Rico team. So that’s nice.

Is it me or has NBC retained the services of Don Henley and the Eagles to suppress any use or images of the Olympics?

It is interesting that in all the stories and memes about the Turkish shooting medalist almost the only mentions of his female partner (yes, the medal was for mixed doubles)  are in Asian media.

Yusef Dikec and Sevval Ilayda Tarhan won the silver medal in mixed team 10-meter air pistol shooting Tuesday. It was Turkey’s first-ever medal in Olympic shooting.

NBC has always been jerks about protecting their Olympic video.

And yes, 62 for Scheffler down the stretch is how you finish a tournament. 

If I was up on that stand with a gold medal around my neck and the Star Spangled Banner playing, I'd be ugly crying too.

I was watching archery earlier in the week, and the Koreans were closing the match by hitting 10 after 10 after 10. That's how you close out a match.
