He looks like he’d do ok with the girls in the Olympic village

My friend’s son was in the Gymnastics - came 20 something in Men’s all
Around.

Apparently he was given about 30 condoms as part of his welcome pack in the village

They used to allow you one false start until they realised people were doing it on purpose to try and get their opponents tired after going full pelt for 60m

I don't know how I feel about the false start rule. He motioned that he heard something from the crowd. I feel like they should switch to drag racing lights.

Why give out condoms?

These are the genetic best of the best. We should be encouraging them to cross breed, for the good of the species.

They should be giving out massage oil and lube.

the Algerian fighter is supposed to be fighting right now, and it's not on any of the 767 networks in usa

I mean it was only the biggest story on twitter, why televise her match?

announcer Laurie Hernandez said Rebeca Andrade was maybe gonna do a triple twisting yurchenko which I didn't even know was a thing. she sounded scared, and said it was dangerous.

Andrade went for just the double twist. I'm kinda relieved, but would have been sick to see her do it

I like how they talk about how Spo doesn't have any grey hair while LeBron does. Like he isn't dying that **** constantly.

No bronze medal match in boxing. Semi-final losers both get bronze.

i read he got tested up to 7 times per day while he has been there..

so unless it's a new super drug that evades detection, it just seems like xenophobia.
