Rio Olympics Megathread

[The Chinese Union]

The NBC Olympics app is awful. I guess I can't watch more Judo now lol. Hopefully NBC shows Taekwondo on TV, as it looks pretty interesting and I wish to see athletes from different nations compete.

I have been forced to watch eternal swimming and volleyball.

Haha true.

Hopefully Track and Field day will be much more entertaining, with more events and more nations.

And Usain Bolt.

Is Bolt better? Like, how bad was the poisoning?

So Korea have won both the men's and women's archery team gold. I wouldn't be surprised if they swept the board and took the individual medals too. Their archers are just a step above everyone else.

It is quite something.

I'd love to know their training secret. Surely they must be breeding their archers in test tubes or something.

Even today watching the women, the gulf in class was just beyond belief. The Koreans shot so beautifully, you could see their brilliance in their form.

Yeah It seems like a lot of people were drawn away from Rio.

I've seen long lines for some events.

Anyone who's okay with paying athletes to step into a zika-infested hellhole doesn't get to object to prostitution on account of the diseases.

Unless they're planning on getting pregnant, I don't think you're...whatever this is...is accurate or relevant.

And if they bring the disease home with them and cause it to spread to those who are?

They don't have to be "planning" on getting pregnant either. Condoms break.

North Korea or South Korea?

They'll screen people when they come back I'll bet.

South. I have seen North shoot before in World Cups and stuff but don't think any of them made it to Rio.

Speaking of Korea...

A South Korean athlete did this slefie with a North Korean athlete.

despite the DMZ and Governments at war, Koreans still see themselves as one people.

the only reason westerners don't know that is that its in the best interest of both US and China is to maintain the tension

But as mentioned in the article, previously North Korean athletes have been very reclusive and wouldn't speak to South Korean athletes or journalists.

If only their women's hockey team was just as good...

And if someone tests positive?

I mean you can just look up basic disease containment.

Hell the Apollo astronauts were detained for awhile after they came back from the Moon in case they had "Moon germs".

Phelps won another gold medal. Men's 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay if I'm not mistaken.

Yay.

That's a happier story than 31 year old loses to younger than competitors and gets nothing.
