2016 Rio Summer Olympics

Track and field 'plaint... How come the 100m relay, which took 42 seconds to run, had 27 straight minutes of "victory lap" crap going on?
 
Chinese diver with a perfect score on the platform. Goes from dead last to 6th in one dive.

I am no judge, but while it was a VERY good dive, I have never seen a perfect score until tonight, and I feel like I've seen better dives than this one.

china v. Serbia for WVB gold was some darn good volleyball, too bad the Chinese won.
 
Same Chinese diver with the perfect score, followed it up with a damn near perfect score, moving from last to 3rd in two dives. Well...he just back flopped. **** is crazy.
 
Sliding headfirst into first isn't faster, not super convinced diving across a finish line is either.
 
I'm avoiding reading all the way through this thread to avoid a particular spoiler which will be apparent in a minute, but I'm watching the gold medal soccer match on DVR right now and holy freakin' moly free kick Neymar. I'm really rooting for Brazil to win this gold medal. Winning this would be so huge for this country.
 
Does anyone else have a slight depression when the olympics are over? I can't explain it other than I'm sad when they end yet I have no emotional connection to them.

No. I know it's only 2 weeks every four years but it's enough for me. The one sad thing from this one is that it's the last time we see Phelps and Bolt compete.
