July 28, 20241 yr Handball does seem super easy. Ill be an alternate. I just want to hold the clipboard and go home with the medal.
July 29, 20241 yr My guy Nyjah has a solid chance at Gold!!! Jagger is on his tail though for some hopeful USA-dominance!
July 29, 20241 yr The street skateboarding has to be the most bizarre sport there is. Skating around with headphones or earbuds and your phone in your pocket? I guess focusing on the task at hand isn't a big deal. Can you imagine if swimmers or track sprinters competed with earbuds and a phone?
July 29, 20241 yr USWNT blew the doors off those German skanks (but the one that scored for them was fine as F though!) edit:

That analogy only works if the swimmers are constantly getting drown and sprinters getting hit by like 10mph smart cars throughout the entire race. Skaters are submitting themselves to repeated bodily harm and I’m sure having something to distract from the impending doom or get you hyped is pretty vital. Hell, I feel like I recall Phelps rocking some Beats style over the ear headphones basically right up until he climbed the starting platform

July 30, 20241 yr I didnt realize Chase Buddinger was in the olympics. I guess he and his partner won their beach volleyball match today in straight sets.

Do the skateboarders practice out on random streets, and not on controlled courses? Yes, Phelps listened to music beforehand. You'll see that more many sports. But during?

The practice all over the place. 99% of video parts they film are out in random streets, and in lots of cases look to make a skate spot out of something that is not and should not be used for skateboarding. They'll also spend time at public and private skateparks as well, so its a mixture of both. The comparison is that swimmers and sprinters are getting their bodies, joints, ligaments, etc. beat to hell over and over again both in their training leading up to their competitions, but over and over again in the warmups before their competitions and during their competitions. How many boxers/MMA do you see coming out to the ring in complete silence? If they didn't have a risk of an earbud getting punched into their ear canal I'm sure they would choose to listen to their own music as well!

July 30, 20241 yr Is this Stojakovic in 3v3 basketball still Peja? nevermind. I see that is actually not his name. USA lost. They seem to suck.
July 30, 20241 yr Setting aside the fact that they looked like last years Eagles secondary trying to tackle, she was not going to be denied
