As for this Ryan Lochte robbery business, I don't understand it at all. Why make up that you got robbed? The whole thing is perplexing.

It's the weirdest story. Nobody was charged with anything, why are they even being held in the country? Is Brazil just embarrassed about the whole thing?

Just in time

Now the new story (which seems to constantly change) is that Lochte fabricated the story to try to cover up a fight that he had with a gas station attendant, and his teammates went along with the lie.

There's a chance that his teammates are all going to wind up in a Brazilian jail while Lochte relaxes in the US.  Jesus...

I'm knackered just watching it

Do they not throw punches in taekwondo?

Also, since they've switched to the boxing, Ronald McIntosh is one of the best commentators I've heard.

Ashton Eaton wins the decathlon!

[Bobfoc]

Jade Jones!

It's time for De Grasse vs Bolt! I'm pumped!

[Tyrone]

Unbelievable.

[Draevyn]

The hell did those wings come from damn it!

[The Buscher]

Man I'm going to miss Bolt.

Donovan Bailey's celebration in the interview room was entertaining enough in itself. I thought he might run through the wall ala Wile E Coyote.

So our Women got to run that race again? Not sure how to feel about that. I mean I am happy we are still around but it didn't look like anything to me.

It looked like just enough. Sprinting is a sport that comes down to the slimmest of margins anyway. Whole thing is kind of a mess and I feel bad for China.

Holy shit they're replaying the hurdles race from earlier and seeing Javier Culson false start and break down in tears was so sad  guy is 31 so that's probably the end of his Olympic career.

I wouldn't say nothing

 

She's clearly going over the line, in a manner that does look somewhat purposeful
