    We seem to have a distinct size advantage.

    Back to back try's makes it a quick turn around 12 - 7 USA, PAT? pending.

    USA women's rugby 7s trailing Japan 7-0 early.

    The French gal won by nearly 3 minutes in an hour and 20 minute race, that's impressive.

    Yeah, I was referring to Shark Week Great Whites I see in South Africa, yeah, I'll pass on that, but go ahead. Vegas is actually interesting, at this point they have many of the facilities in place they could make a bid, it'd be a hell of a party. It also made me laugh to think of having the Italian team headquarters at the Venetian, or the French headquarters at Paris Paris. I'm sure both teams would feel like they never left home.

    I was just using Vegas as an example, and they wouldn't do that there either, nor in Chicago, they could use Hawaii or California without issue, the precedent has been set for that. What is more likely for an artificial effort would be a country without those kinds of locations, such as this. There are only a handful of places in the world with both the money to host the Olympics, and the lack of ability to find a suitable surfing location within there own reach. Saudi Arabia is one with the money (but I'd like to think political opposition to this would stand for many reasons). If say South Africa got a games, I don't think anyone is overly eager to get out in the water with fucking sharks, so there's that.

    I seem to remember a project in the Caribbean to make artificial surf, as to it's success I have no idea. I'd have to think that the ability exists to do this just about anywhere, it's just a question of cost. To me, it's not inconceivable to have an Olympics in say Las Vegas (albeit impractical). The Saudi's are after all sorts of projects, practical or otherwise, so to me it's not inconceivable they would try something like this.

    I doubt it, there are plenty of work arounds, and if the IOC has shown anything, it's that money talks.

    That's seriously a what in the actual fuck kind of moment.

    Fiji's frees safety took a shit angle, this would be wild though.

    Women are known for their forgive and forget attitude.

    Ukraine up 1 goal on Morocco, after scoring in stoppage time. Apparently, the Ukrainians played nearly the entire second half a man down.

    The Olympics in LA is going to have Riley Reid do something like that, I've heard.

    The Gold Zone channel on Peacock is pretty sweet, you get to see a bunch of different stuff, and they aren't catering just to the USA stuff, all medal matches. Judo right now.

    Brutal conditions for the bike racing, go as fast as you can, in the pouring rain, on slick asphalt.

    Just ended, it was on USA 4k. Now it's getting US women's water polo vs. Greece.

    Our girls, the Xu sisters, are putting up a fight in badminton, but the Chinese are freaking awesome.

    Well, I don't think talking back to the Judo lady's would be in your best interests.

    I was interested in the part about her being big in France, because she is French Canadian. I suppose mainly because of the language, but I have to figure she has other ties. I also thought it was really cool that France involved great Olympians from other countries during their ceremony. I don't recall anyone else ever really doing that. It was a classy move, but it did kill my Nadal, Serena, Carl Lewis, and Nadia are all on a boat joke.

    I have no earthly idea what that song is about, maybe I never want to know. That was just amazing. I also couldn't help but think that it's just her and the piano player, way up on the Tower, with no real audience, like a performer is accustomed. Sure, all of Paris, and much of the world was watching, but really no one else really near her.

    Oh fuck, it's West World

    I think NBC reupped this in the last few years thru like 2040, so there's that.
  24. BamaATL
    No Cinemax then?

    if any one group of people is going to be a good judge of culture, it's Facebook people.
