Bags, bowling, baseball, and softball should be medal sports before this.

Not a fan of sports that need judges to determine winner.

Agreed, but it’s better than rhythmic gymnastics.

This is one reason Ol' Doodle isn't overly concerned if China actually does end up with more golds this time around. The plain fact is the Chinese excel more at judged sports while USA excels more at timed/scored sports.

More than 1/3 of China's current gold count (11 out of 31) is from events where a panel of humans gets to decide who was best, including diving, artistic swimming, gymnastics, and freestyle biking. Meanwhile, for Team USA, only 4 out of 30 have come from judged sports...3 from gymnastics and 1 from surfing.

Let me stir the pot a bit…CC22 could have played that entire 4th quarter and “contributed” in a meaningful way. At least by getting minutes.

Taurasi has done nothing this tourney. Before today, averaging 0.7 points per game, 1 RB and shooting 17%. But by all means, let her coast to another gold medal.
