13.05 slow time, but Mcleod wins.
Key-rist, Allen hit every hurdle but one, again, like in the semi.
Also, they panned the stadium and its half full.
Smart tactics, actually, by Rowbury to make it slow. If it's a cooker from the start, everyone but the favorites don't have a chance. Make it an 800 meter race and it's a tossup. Most of those women can close in close to 2 minutes off a slow pace. Couldn't do it off a fast pace.
What is with NBC's love of Devon Allen and basically no mention of Ash? Race? Oregon and Nike? It was very weird.
DARYA KLISHINA MOVES ONTO THE FINALS OF THE LONG JUMP!!! WHAT A NIGHT!

Diversity has ruined the Olympics. Im listening to the Olympics and hear, '1 of 2 frenchmen in the Finals', I look up and its some big African....
They said an American won bronze in the women's 1500m but all I saw was a European in an American uniform.

I noticed that too. I think it's the "Oregon and NIke" angle. Honestly, there's no way race would play into this.

Womens 1500 m final. Every one waiting to see who was going to make a big move to try to run the kick out of Dibaba. Who suspected it would be Dibaba? Not me.

He is the Olympic trials champ and Best chance at the win for the US. They barely mentioned Frances and Hastings in the 400 final. The only American mentioned in the SP coverage was Michelle Carter. They will probably talk about Centro in the 1500 final and just mention Andrews or Blankenship in passing if they make the final.

You get what you get wrote:Taylor near WR but barley a foul. Still a gold medal.
He's now one an Olympic gold jumping off of both legs. Pretty amazing.
I agree with Tim Hutchings. Iw ish they would still measure the fouls. Why not? With the computer, it doesnt' take long.
Don't count it but that last jump was right near the WR.
Carl Lewis agrees.

Penultimate lap of (800m-1200m) of 56.8 for Dibaba. Wow. Paid for it later. Anyone know Kipyegon's last 600, 800?
Dibaba has been learning race tactics from Alan Webb. It paid off with a silver medal.

Football.

Hell yeah!
Simpson, Coburn, Murphy
USA mid D / D
And we still have legit medal contenders in the 1500, steeplchase, 5000 and marathon. What a fun Olympics to watch -- even if the sprinters choke again in the relay.

Ummm American. Had best chance at medal. Also just better story. 21. Two sport star is rare at this level.
This. Plus, America is not ready to follow two T&F athletes at the same time in one event.
Because he's fast? wrote:

I haven't had enough Zac Efron, I'm really hoping they can find a way to talk about him having NBC pay to fly him to Rio more considering what a great accomplishment and Olympic story that is, hopefully the stations can keep talking about him tonight!
