The amount of quality sprinters in that final make this win even more impressive. Finally, USA is the fastest in the world!

I couldn't fathom those times when I was a 10 year old kid watching the 88 Olympics
It was insane. Two guys with the fastest time in the world this year. At least two more SBs and two more NRs.
Our #1 beach volleyball team is in trouble in the first knockout game. Won set 1 but we are down 5 set two...
Correction, lost the set. Game to 15. I'm no beach volleyball coach or player but our team is trying to be way too cute. Just hammer the ball!

The 100m dash may be the truest athletic competition known to man.
I'm rooting for us but damn that Gottardi is fun to watch
So…. Why don’t we put some gals who are about “6’s” into some skinny-assed swim suits, put them in a sand court and see if they can chase a volley ball? I bet if the suits reveal enough, we can get a TV audience!
It truIy is a testament to all out badassery. I cannot remember a clean race (no fouls) taking so long to post times. It was soooo close. Wowzers.
The only other event I have seen in person that is so all out power is the fifty freestyle in the pool.
This USA/Italy sand volleyball game is legit.

This is good competition man. We are struggling now again. Only up 3.
No touch called. Wow. That kinda seals it.
I think the Italia ladies may win the hottest award.

USA now tied with China for most golds at 19. Way ahead in all medals at 71.
I bet when Lyles got back to the lockerroom he asked everyone if the want to go get thrown out of an Applebees.
Except it’s not the head that counts, torso scores.Best photo I’ve found.
You’re right, but the photo shows Lyles had caught Thompson.
Goes without saying he struggles out of the blocks…been that way since he started running the 100m. If he is able to improve that piece…man.
I don’t know how anyone can watch that race and think … I don’t like the Olympics.
What a race.
What a race.
A great day for the US (minus a few events and also screw the u20 men's soccer team losing to Mexico as well).
Did you watch that U20 Final? Mexico scored on the last second to survive and go to OT, and scored on the last second to win. Both headers on hail mary crosses.
This Olympiad has been extraordinary. Stars are shining. Small countries are showing out.
Paris delivered.
Yeah, but we are winning the real sports, and Chinese athletes have to go home to China after the Olympics
Suni Lee continues to amaze me. I don’t think she has ever disclosed what her kidney disease is, but she was effectively out of gymnastics and her body was failing her. It’s just astounding to see how she’s rebounded.
She was on a plane sitting in first class as we flew from Green Bay to Chicago after a Packers game on a Monday afternoon last year. She was tiny in that seat and her feet didn’t touch the floor of the plane, insane how small she is.
Also, is it just me or does it sound like James Earl Jones say “take your mark” before each men’s swimming race?
