Default 2024 Paris Summer Olympics thread

Fantastic last 20 minutes on the track

Holland taking the gold in the 4 x 40
mixed event .. with an amazing last leg by the Dutch girl . One of the most spectacular finishes ever seen !


Then the Saint Lucia girl took the 100m ladies sprint gold beating off 3 top quality USA sprinters

She smashed that cocky little yank Richardson which is a bonus

I was gonna start on thread on Beck Adlington and what do we think. I still might.

She's adorable, of course, but the crying. Why is she so weepy all the time? Please stop crying.

Another day of the pundits talking about how "emotional" themselves and the Athletes are.

Especially Rebecca Arlington, she's really big on that whole overwrought emotion stuff, it's really beginning to bug me.

And I know that I can get irritated easily, but I hate fake emotions nearly as much as toxic positivity.

It's the fact that so many of them are trying to be "emotional" that's breaking me tbh.

If it were just Rebecca Adlington doing it then I probably would just groan and move on.

I had a good laugh at the guy who fell during the weight throwing. In the difficult times a laugh is very welcome
