Damn, if only her nails were a little bit longer.

The island bitches are all juiced up anyway.

That's a pretty epic first Olympic medial for St. Lucia


Trains and lives in Texas! All these athletes live here anyway. Still great for St Lucia

1st time since 1996 that the USA gets two medals. That is good.

It’s ok to point out when the us gets upset in something.

You knew when Alfred smoked her in the semis that Richardson just didn’t have an answer

But but we are going to dominate T&F.

We’ve won gold and silver in shot put
Silver and bronze in W 100m
Bronze in an event we’ve hardly ever medaled, 10,000m
And silver in 4x400 mixed

Other than speed walking, those are the only events that have had finals thus far. We have 6 medals in 5 events that have awarded medals

Alfred has a great shot at double fold in the 200m.

10,000m. We're gonna get Molly whopped in the 1500m unless Nuguse can pull a rabbit out of his hat

The race was clearly WON at the start. Exact carbon copy of the semis where the girl from St Lucia got out to a 4-5 meter lead and never looked back. Scratching my head since not only did it happen once, but twice in the same day / event.

The problem is out of all of those, there's only one gold. Silver and bronze only matter when you're happy with mediocrity.

America should never be satisfied with mediocrity.

that wasn’t really that big of an upset tho. Richardson was the favorite yes but Alfred has been in amazing form. Richardson had to be perfect to win that race and wasn’t (dog shite start). It happens.

Sha’Carri’s problem has always been her start. She has time to fix that for 2028, but it should’ve been worked on and improved.
