I love the Guardian's headline.
Why has the Olympic pool turned green? The good news is it's not urine

The U.S. Olympic Committee awards cash prizes to medal winners ─ $25,000 for gold, $15,000 for silver and $10,000 for bronze. But the money is considered earned income abroad and subject to IRS taxation ─ as much as 39 percent.

No kidding. Sweden "a bunch of cowards"?
Those cowards just kicked your dumb ass out of Rio at the earliest point in Olympic history. Go home and watch your "Dancing With the Stars" moves if you want to recapture some glory.

Wayde van Niekerk running a 43.03 in the 400m and setting a new world record from the outside lane was an amazing accomplishment. Bolt got the press, but van Niekerk had the race of the day.

This team isn't close to our most talented group. KD is the only guy who might start if we had our best going to Rio. To really take this home, they need to play their best ball, and they aren't.waysouthcat wrote:What's up with the men's basketball team? Squeaking out wins against Serbia, France and Australia?

There's a complete lack of distributors. Draymond Green averaged the most assists of any player. That is an issue.

You aren't up partying and destroying crap at 5 am because you are drunk. You are most likely on cocaine.
