There is no argument to be had. Breakdancing isn’t a sport. By this definition who can drop the biggest turd in the shortest time in a toilet is a sport

It was in college.

Fisher kicked some arse today. He ran one of the best races anyone could ask for and had a legit shot for Gold in that last lap. He just barely lost Silver. What a race!

Thank god the women's gymnastic competition is over! The NBC coverage was 90% devoted to USA hah-hah. During competition, they showed the same marketing videos (or parts of them) over and over and over, and lets watch the USA team walk to the next apparatus, or hug or look at their family or the little ones in their hometown gym, instead of showing Olympic athletes actually competing. There were hours of that stuff broadcast before the Olympics, the Olympic broadcast should focus on the competition.

This 3x3 basketball is just brutal. It seems like it should be fun and entertaining but it is nearly unwatchable and the commentator dude is one very small step away from “boom goes the dynamite.”

The 12 second shot clock makes shot selection garbage.

NBC’s focus is viewers. They have found/believe that the human interest items being in more viewers who otherwise wouldn’t watch sports.
It must work, because they keep buying the rights.
Now, there are lots of streaming platforms that carry other competitions. I could have watched live badminton or golf today a 5:00.

The Peacock App had cameras on every single apparatus.

With Multiview, you could have all 4 on your TV at once.

I’m not sure which country you’d like to focus on? Firstly we are in the USA and secondly the USA women’s gymnastics team at this Olympics is objectively the best in the history of the sport containing now 3x gold medalists in the individual all around. Probably worthy of some coverage. And finally, some bad news for you: the women’s gymnastics competition isn’t over. Individual event finals remain and you’ll likely have to suffer seeing the USA win more golds in that.
