Let today be the day that we stack lots of Gold for Team USA!

Katelyn Abeln has a chance for Gold in the 25M Women's Pistol Finals shortly.

Kara Kuhler has a chance for a a Gold as Rowing in Single Sculls Finals shortly as well.

USA Women also have a team in Rowing Eight Finals.

What Olympic Event (Finals or Otherwise) are you looking forward to today?

Looks like the shooting final starts at 4am ET. Hopefully that's another gold.

Gymnastics starts event finals today, and it could be two more gold medals for the US. One of the men has a legit shot at it and Simone Biles has a shot in the vault final.

Well, we got Men's Final 8 and Women's Final 8 where we should on paper have a 3 out of 6 chance of medaling in each.

Lyles admitted following the race that he underestimated the competition in the first round.

“I guess that’s my first lesson in underestimating the power of the Olympics. When somebody is on the line, they say they are gonna give it their all or nothing,” Lyles said. “Now I don’t have to hold back. Now that I know everybody is ready to go. It’s like oh ok, if you guys are gonna blow your loads, you know I’m ready to go.”


i get it, but his wording is funny.

All these other Pole Vaulters have been struggling, but Mondo clears it with ease.
