Who else is watching this shite?!?! Team USA is on an absolute tear right now. After being down 1-8 we're now tied at 8-8 with the deciding match Thursday!
Watching these boats fly at 40+ knots is mindboggling for me.
Let's go America!

I've watched every race. It's been must see TV.
I think Oracle wins. It was always the faster boat. Crappy that they've had to win 2 more races than the Kiwis. It's actually 10-8 right now.

Don't forget the US was penalized 2 points. There is a good deal of buzz here in the city about this, but I really DGAF about it. A coworker has been out there everyday watching it. Seems like he's a BIG fan....who knew.
'Murica!!

Yea Oracle fvckin flies.
It's absolutely been unreal TV. As someone who has sailed most of their life I have no idea how those guys do it.
Flying at 40+ knots is insane.

There were 2 Kiwi's in my office that were talking all kinds of shite half way through.
They've been awful quiet lately and they're terrified now.
We coming for you fools!

Saturday, new Zealand was 4 minutes ahead and all the had to do is cross the finish line and they win the cup but they wasted too much time at the start of the race and then the wind died down. The 40 minute time limit ran out and they ended up a couple minutes short.
If the US team comes back to win this, it will be one of the greatest comebacks ever.

The "pucker effect" is fully apparent now.

The American team was down 6 races and the Kiwi's were less than 2 minutes from crossing the line and winning the cup. In order to win they would have to miraculously keep them from winning that race (which mother nature took care of) then win out every race which meant a perfect run of races for an entire week.
Any way you cut it, if the do win, it will be an amazing comeback and would be one of the great ones ever.

I've seen bits of it in the past, but am totally clueless on it. It does look pretty neat, though.

I've watched some of it. I'm telling you on the 60" screen there are some amazing shots they are getting of this race. its pretty riveting and I love the backdrop of the SF Bay.
