I did say Alysha Newman had a chance at a medal if she did her best. She did (a bit better then) her best and got bronze!

Folks, let's show the ladies some respect. They're athletes and should be shown some respect. It's one thing to appreciate how they look but the comments are getting creepy.
Let's just appreciate the athletism.

Can't say anything anymore!
Incredible performance by Newman, she was close to make it to 4,90m.

Thank you.
People also need to remember that there are some ladies who read and post here. Let's not make this an unfriendly place for them. I recognize that's not what people were trying to do but be cognizant of others who are here. Is it something you'd want your daughter to read? If not, then probably not a good idea to post it.
This isn't meant as a lecture or rant, just a reminder that it's not just guys who visit here. Let's be respectful.
Cheers.

The wall configuration is always the same in every competitions which I think remove the point. They are just trying to find the fastest squirrel at repeating the exact same climbing configuration.

Well russia is not there. Those medals wont go to countries smaller than 20 millions people
Luo (the Chinese) is the world record owner of the combined weight at 248kg which she set last April.
Kuo, the Taiwanese who finished 3rd, was the gold medalist in the 59kg category in Tokyo and she lead that weight class for like 10 years.
Maude did very well, especially after having to drop weight class (her usual 64kg isn't at the Paris Olympics).
the valiant effort
settle down, bud

The beach volleyball ladies save match point and turn around to win the 2nd set to send their semi against the Swiss to a 3rd set

Canada is doing very good at this Olympic but the biggest surprise for me is Australia. They have less population than Canada and more than double our medal count and 18 gold medals. Wow.

Well it's the summer OG. I mean in many disciplines our athlete have to train abroad. In the winter OG we are usually far ahead
Australia has always been strong in swimming, boats and track and fields. Also, it appears they have the top skateboarders...
