When’s the important shit with swimming? I care about swimming every 4 years, usually the intense shit is in the first couple of days right?

This link will give you all the info on events and days.

Tomorrow the big one is men’s 4x100. Should be a good final!

Sunday men’s 400 IM and 100 breast finals should be great.

I’ll look ahead and find some good races and when to watch

Isn't the Men's 4x100 usually one of the very last events in the pool?

Hugo Stiglitz · July 27

Remember when they found out Micheal Phelps smoked weed and it was like a huge scandal but then in 2024 America chooses Snoop Dogg as the torch bearer?

Seems fucked up.

Hugo Stiglitz · July 27

Has Luana Alonso, the 20 year old Paraguayan swimmer that attends SMU been discussed?

Blotto · July 27

I'll be in my red white and blue adorned bunk.

Hook1997 · July 27

Walsh for US just missed breaking her WR in the 100 butterfly in her qualifying round. Only one guy in 400m freestyle final and he go smoked.

Titmus huh

MNLonghornFUKM · July 27

Guys swimming kinda has gone down hill since Phelps?

Hook1997 · July 27

Ledecky gets bronze in the 400m freestyle, she wasn’t close to the top two.

MNLonghornFUKM · July 27

Wow. Wasn’t even on the screen for the majority of it

kingkoopa6 · July 27

She almost fell to 4th.

randomhorn · July 27

Yeah, she looked gassed. Is this not her best event?

No. 800 and 1500 are her key events.

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 27

Relays are up.

WBT · July 27

Meh, we're supposed to be offended that the Australians don't like the cowbells? Because they're right.

Hugo Stiglitz · July 27

Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, as everyone knows.

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 27

Good relay.

Hook1997 · July 27

The doped up Chinese swimmers almost beat them for silver.

WBT · July 27

Damn, that was an ass kicking

Australia's final swimmer was a BEAST though.

Chalmers is very good. Armstrong in leg 3 was amazing for the USA.

Yeah, he did cut into the lead. Armstrong as the 3rd leg was awesome.

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 27

Medals ceremony for the men is outstanding. I might have teared up a bit.

Yeah Armstrong pulled really far ahead which made Chalmers effort that much more impressive.

The Dog · July 28

Armstrong’s leg was epic. He won the race.

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

Let’s fucking go with some finals!

While not in our “team” Leon Marchand in the 400IM is going to be the guy to watch. He broke Phelps record last summer and is damn good.

Women’s 100 fly. Gretchen Walsh is our best bet here. Fairly stacked final

My personal favorite, men’s 100 breaststroke. Peaty is the historic power here but honestly this race could bring some surprises as no one is clearly dominant coming into finals

Semifinals should be fun as well

Edited July 28 by Shut up Lou Holtz

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

This crowd is fucking nuts with Marchand swimming. Can’t imagine the electricity on deck right now

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 28

400 IM to go. Leon Marchand is the hometown hero.

Carson Foster, a Longhorn, is in lane 6 and sitting in 3rd.

Foster has a shot at silver. But has to bring it home fast in free

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 28

No one is going to touch Marchand. What a great swim so far.

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

Holy shit the battle for silver is nuts!

Mez2 · July 28

He killed that, amazing

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

Foster with the bronze! Hook em Foster!

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 28

Foster finishes 3rd. Marchand sets the Olympic record, but was just out of range of his own WR.

Buzzrock · July 28

🤘🏼

MNLonghornFUKM · July 28

Frenchie cooked everybody. Wow

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 28

Marchand is honestly very, very good at all four strokes. That was a great underwater.

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

Marchand’s underwaters are fucking nuts. To go 12+ meters on the freestyle in a 400IM is so hard

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 28

Foster just got out touched at the end. He definitely could not see Lane 2 from Lane 6.

Yep.

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

This is going to be fast yall.

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

Holy fuck!!!!!

PenelopeWitherspoon · July 28

Damn. Huske and Walsh 1-2. Amazing race. Huske ran Walsh down.

Shut up Lou Holtz · July 28

Fucking awesome finish for Huske! USA goes 1 2!!!!!

kingkoopa6 · July 28

Wow. Huske
