2016 Rio Summer Olympics

That there is what you call domination.

I just don't get how you can be that much better than the next person. I watched it happen and it still doesn't seem possible.

[The Buscher]

Ledecky might have won that thing even if the other 7 swimmers ran a relay against her.  That was just crazy dominance.

[Meacon Keaton]

Gold and bronze in the 50m men's freestyle! Hell yeah!

[Draevyn]

Silver for us in the Lightweight Women's Double Sculls. So so close to Gold but I think they just waited a bit to long to make their move on the Dutch.

 

I have no idea if it was live though I'm assuming not. Our coverage sucks.

Like there isn't anyone else on the screen

[Draevyn]

She was just out for a leisurely night swim

That cycling team sprint gold was a ridiculously tense race!

Definitely wasn't live, Rowing is usually on late morning / early afternoon Brazil time. Guessing based on your post being '7 hours ago' that you watched it between 9-11pm US time (depending where you live), which would be around midnight Brazil time? I might have got that horribly wrong.

There were lots of really good races as well yesterday. I'm going to miss a lot of the Heptathlon today due to being out at football, is today the equivalent of 2012's "Super Saturday"?

[Lineker]

Yes.

[Adam]

Good...unless it all clashes with the afternoon football or Match of the Day. Tell me it doesn't, oracle Lineker?

[Lineker]

I'd have thought that MOTD would be on first. However I haven't checked the schedule.

You haven't? What do we have you here for then?

This is your job Lineker, to inform us of all and sundry related to the BBC!

[Cymbols]

Fair play to Ledecky, crushed it. But Jazz Carlin took her second silver

It's the personal touch that I'm after though

Looks good according to that schedule though, I can watch MOTD then stay up to hopefully watch a Gold glut in the Athletics.

Yeah it was about 9 or 10 my time. I was probably about a half hour after the Phelps and Ledecky swim was shown. I'm usually only half watching it as my girlfriend loves the stuf but I usually have something going on the computer of my own at the same time and just pay attention when something interests me.

[Bobfoc]

Masterful from the British pursuit women. That's yet another gold and world record, but this was the event I was most keen for Britain to win.

[Lineker]

Silver for Becky James in the Keirin.
