Warhead36 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Klineman/Ross are dominant. Should win the gold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) I’m watching women’s kayak 200m. Im not sure I can move a paddle through the air as fast as they do through the water. Edited August 2, 2021 by Destino 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was a typo they’d probably all die if they attempted 1200 meter at that pace. and yes these ladies certainly look like they can open jars without assistance. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife said the same thing, though looking at those kayaks that might be required just to fit in the seat. If they were a few inches narrower most of these kayakers would have to straddle them.

I think you are right that they wouldn't fit if they did any lower body work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdcskins Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) USA women basketball only up 4 points on France heading into the 4th quarter. They have won 51 straight Olympic games. They pull away midway through the 4th and win by 11. Tina Charles (Mystics) had some big buckets. Edited August 2, 2021 by abdcskins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada plays very conservatively (3 of their last 5 matches have ended in draws). Canada ended up with only 1 shot on goal the whole game, excluding the PK. And the VAR that led to the PK was horrific. Nobody thought that was a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if it explains everything (like their inability to stay onside) but I think age was a factor. This is an old team with an average age over thirty. I think the Covid year disrupted their usual preparation too, because there were times when this team seemed to lack chemistry. Disappointing result. There seem to be a lot for the US in these Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily disagreeing with you, just curious as to which results you consider disappointing. Off the top of my head, women's all around gymnastics, women's soccer, 4x400 medley track relay, men's volleyball, maybe Ledecky not medaling in the 200m freestyle. There have been a few silver medals that could have very well been gold, but overall I have been pleased. Can't win em all, if you get silver that means you are second best in the entire world, and that is pretty damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not that the Olympics have been an overall poor showing for the US, but that some of the titans we expected to dominate, faltered. Ledecky, Biles, and the US women’s soccer team were the most dominant, and prominent, US athletes going to these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davidson did not take the ball in the air, then did not hustle to clear the line. The Canadian player beat her to position, and Davidson’s clearing attempt became a clear kick to the Canadian’s leg. In real time I didn’t think it was a pen, but when I saw the replay, there was no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
