I think she's saving a big kick for the home stretch

ETA Maybe she needs to use it now

I hope so.  I'm so nervous watching this!

 

[Cold Dead Hands]

I wonder if they can just run these races for bronze and mail the gold and silver to Kenya. Save the travel costs

 

[identikit]

6 seconds gap 

Gotta be near-impossible to close that gap at this point.

Just watched that replay.  Then watching Karch Kiraly's post-match interview made things a little dusty.  He was beaming and speechless with pride for his team.  So great.  Of course I might be biased because I pretty much worshipped the guy growing up.  Hope they finish the job against Brazil.  

The Pan-Am Games were held here in Indianapolis in 1987 (I think that was the year). I went to several of the volleyball games and have been a big Kiraly fan ever since.

[Cold Dead Hands]

The coverage is historically bad. Why am I getting 15 minutes of random aerial shots of the city? I feel like I am watching a broadcast of just low budget “B” roll

I'm positive that if my father had any idea what I was talking about, I could get him to dig out the pictures of Kiraly and I from Wildwood New Jersey in 1988 or so when I got to meet him after a beach volleyball event. 

I've been a fan ever since.

NBC coverage is horrendous.

I started streaming Canadian coverage.  Far better.

Really starting to hate all the various Microsoft Teams Tokyo Covid tour ads...

People fawning over a cat

Others ordering 'surprise me's' at a restaurant.

Epic meltdown chipping onto the green. Oof.

Just hit into a fairway bunker on her tee shot on 8. Hoping Korda gets her focus back ASAP.

Plenty of golf to go

Terrific leaderboard 

I’m rooting for Lydia, she’s been my fav girl golfer for awhile

Alyson Felix won the bronze in the women's 400m at 49.40, only 2.07 seconds faster than Sydney ran the 400 Hurdles

Italy dominating men's 100 stuff.  Italy.  Those guys.

Korda putting the hammer down

[encaitar]

Japanese golfer Mone Inami is on fire right now.  4 birdies in a row to pull within one of Korda.

 

[Capella]

They’re gonna have to raise Durant’s jersey to the rafters of the White House or something. 

 

[Penguin]

Yes!  US and Jamaica nowhere...

Jamaica's anchor

 

[need2know]

Where would us basketball be without Tatum wow

Let's see if Pops can figure out how to not let Gobert beat the US  on offense all game.

It's not that hard right.  Pops is getting old

That is a brutal horn in the women's golf. They were so close.

Hell, bring Mcgee in.

Don't pile up fouls on guys they need on offense.

 

[Capella]

It's not that hard right.  Pops is getting old

it’s hard when you only have one guy who can defend him and he’s not really even that good at it himself.

Colangelo didn't do Pop any favors by not selecting a legitimate big man for the roster.

We needed JJ Reddick...not hitting 3s is the only time we get into trouble.

 

[BobbyLayne]

I’d keep playing. I don’t think the heavy stuff is coming down for awhile.

 

[AAABatteries]

We have plenty of good 3-PT shooters.  They need to screen, cut and penetrate - too much 1-on-1 - and yes, I understand that’s today’s NBA and it will still probably work even if they don’t do it.

 

[TripItUp]

We have plenty of good 3-PT shooters.  

that aren't hitting wide open 3s at times

 

[TripItUp]

KD gonna KD

 

[SWC]
