My inner juvenile sure hopes diver Steele Johnson is sponsored by Dick's Sporting Goods. (Brought to you by a lady w/ surname "Cocks.") -H

Why do the men in this diving contest turn somersaults with their legs spread wide apart, seems so odd to me, but your Knees together. Although, maybe it is a synchronization thing.

Ok, that was hysterical, Phelps in the locker room looking like a junk yard dog.

Dipo, I described it as legs/feet spread apart...just as jumping off...first dive USA. China...somersault..perfect sync.

Oh for crying out loud! So Chad le Clos was in the same waiting room as Phelps. So were the rest of the swimmers! The announcers for NBC are just ridiculous in the drama they were trying to create tonight. I was actually rooting for an unknown to beat both Phelps and le Clos just to shock the announcer into silence.
Oh, and this announcer has already declared who is going to win without a doubt among the women tomorrow so you don't have to bother to tune in.
And I'm still irked that they barely even let you know what the event is in swimming. They announce it once and show you the lanes once and then that's it so if you don't hear them that first time, tough luck!
The divers were amazing again tonight! Can't wait for the individuals!

LOL, Kappy, it was funny though, watching Le Clos dancing around and Phelps looking evil. I am sure neither were even paying attention to the other. They both have pre game rituals they go through, and both were wearing headphone/earbuds, but it looked funny. And I chuckled.
I do wish NBC would spend more time on the sports and less on all the other junk, we don't get to see as much as I want of the events, and then they put fluff into the primetime shows.
I couldn't believe they hardly got to the gymnastics last night...it was on all damn day, put it on then, and then do highlights later.
I was up till 2am just so I could see the men's gymnastics and then it was really cut and spliced. I wanted to watch it when it was happening.

OMG, I finally got the live stream to work, I think I had the window to small, when I put it full screen I finally got a stream to launch.
Then I could make the screen a little smaller, naturally I got it working when the women's team competition was just ending! ACCCKKKKK!!!
Guess I will see if I can watch something else I am interested in.

And finally I get to see what they are handed instead of flowers. They are little sort of crystal like statuette looks like Rio symbol. The look sort of cool and will last a whole lot longer than flowers.

Absolutely astonishing that Serena is out. It sure shows it can happen to anyone. The Olympics can do strange things to people.
