AUBwins 10,297 Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 My daughter's high school has a powder puff game between grades. I swear I saw some of this action in those games. Some girls just salivate at the opportunity to stiff arm the others lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishepa 2,067 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Watching the coverage tonight you wouldn’t even know Suni is on the USA team. All about Simon Biles for some reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURex 2,303 Posted July 29 Author Share Posted July 29 One of the swimmers for another country in the prelims apparently swam for Auburn, but I did not catch his name. I don't think he advanced to the finals. Anyone catch his name? Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,297 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Just watched an incredible race with the Mountain Bike Cross Country. Holy smokes what drama on the final half of that race, especially last lap. Don't want to spoil it in case anyone wants to watch. Key skip to points if don't want to watch the full race: lap 3 to lap 4, then picks up the last 3 laps, insane final lap (can't remember if 7 or 8 laps) but in reality once the transition happens around lap 3, it's fun to watch to the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,297 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Enormous test tomorrow in Semi. The All Blacks. NZ had a 95 Goal differential compared to 31 for US in pool play. But France is the only one to give us a loss and they got upset by Canada in QFs.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,297 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) NZ beats US 24-12. The unfortunate thing is Canada upset Australia. So we will have to beat the Aussies to get a medal. Canada is hot right now but Aus was a better team. I hope they pull it out for the bronze. 1pmET Edited July 30 by AUBwins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURex 2,303 Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 Okay, time to set aside your political ideology. A number of athletes (including 2 US) have tested positive for COVID. Even if you are of the political persuasion that COVID is a big nothing, that's not true. Even flu or a cold can affect performance of athletes at this level. At least one finalist has withdrawn from swimming competition. Some coaches and staff are now wearing masks. Athletes who have tested positive have been moved to accommodations outside Olympic Village. Bummer! Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummer!  Read a story that many athletes are getting hotels instead of the village for various reasons. Part of it is the commute to the events, crowding, uncomfortable beds etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,297 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 One of the greatest things in sports. The Haka! This is a different one than I've typically seen but just so incredible. If you have ever watched the All Blacks in full Rugby competition, they do this BEFORE the match. Love it.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
