  1. No one watching the men?
  2. I have British and French ancestry, so usually France is my #2, and Britain my #3. I hate cheaters, thus the reason I have always pulled against Russia and China (both known for state doping programs). For Australia, one of my best friends is Australian, so I hear how awesome Australia is all the time. After the shit Cate Campbell said, and given that I have to hear all about Australia on the reg, I always root against Australia in swimming, rugby, and football.
  3. All in on Weinstein. Would be amazing for her to shock one or both of the Aussies.
  4. Is it wrong that I want the Aussies not to make it? Gemmell not having a good race. Sigh.
  5. Weinstein looked really good in that semifinal.
  6. I assume they are testing the shit out of the Chinese swimmers given the shit from Tokyo.
  7. 2 100ths of a second separating Peaty and Fink from the Italian. Damn.
  8. What a race! I thought Fink might have it.
  9. I think Hobson, had he had a better reaction time off the blocks, will compete. He had a great close. He was slow off the blocks.
  10. Hobson takes the semifinal. Damn. Well done.
  11. Another Longhorn in Lane 6.
  12. Walsh is great underwater. Huske just was a beast.
  13. Damn. Huske and Walsh 1-2. Amazing race. Huske ran Walsh down.
  14. Foster just got out touched at the end. He definitely could not see Lane 2 from Lane 6.
  15. Marchand is honestly very, very good at all four strokes. That was a great underwater.
  16. Foster finishes 3rd. Marchand sets the Olympic record, but was just out of range of his own WR.
  17. No one is going to touch Marchand. What a great swim so far.
  18. 400 IM to go. Leon Marchand is the hometown hero. Carson Foster, a Longhorn, is in lane 6 and sitting in 3rd.
  19. The GB/Australia match is pretty fucking good. I love watching this stuff. I played in my last 7's tounament in 2001, and I was lucky enough to play with some women that had made the Women's Eagles, but those women, as good as they were, hold nothing to the ladies we are seeing today. Glad to see this in the Olympics.
  20. Not mine, but something in response to all the idiots bitching about the opening ceremonies.
  21. I am actually impressed with the NBC/Peacock set up. I like that you can watch things replayed, multiview, and all the medal moments.
  22. The US men were making dumb mistakes this morning. I turned it off with Italy ahead 10-4.
  23. That try for France by No. 1 was a thing of beauty.
