    How much do you want to bet that the same people swearing this female boxer is a man are the same people who said they would refuse to watch the Olympics because of the opening ceremony?

    There's a video billboard on my way to work with an updated USA medal count, along with an ad for a gun show. What a country.
    Ironically, the US has zero medals for Shooting.
    They don't seem to be that accurate given recent events. 
    That’s because it’s just one target! When you have a room full of students or a parking lot full of music fans you don’t need to aim just have to be good at spraying from side to side

    I have neglected to watch a single second of these Olympics. First time in my life I haven't. There is no reason for this as far I know. I have just not gotten around to it. I feel slightly regretful I guess, I dunno.

    the mixed 4x400 race was exciting. That girl from the Netherlands in the last leg ran the race of her life. Congrats!

    Speaking of The Netherlands, why do they wear orange and blue (Olympics, World Cup, etc...). Their flag is red white and blue isn't it?

    The young Canadian swimmer, Summer Mcintosh, wins her 3rd gold.  Wow,  to do so as a 17 year old.....crazy how talented some of these kids are and how much work they must have put in to get there.

    Love the Olympics

    Like Italy wears azzurro (light blue) even though their flag is green, white & red.  They're called Gli Azzurri (women are Le Azzurre).
