Losing the 4x100 men’s relay and the women down double digits against France isn’t helping |
How about the high jumper who declined a 1st place split only to lose?  |

Pretty upset at the idiot from Australia who thought she was the best representative of BreakDancing AUS could offer. from what I have read she organized the event.. did she pick herself?
I imagined we would get a true apology like the girl who adimitted she was drunk while singing the national anthem at a baseball game.. Raygun looked like she relapsed into a near overdose of heroin and gently rolled on the mat
36 years old.. how could she .. I don't like to criticize people this hard - no younger more qualified females in all of Aus? |

What's mindboggling is breakdancing is an Olympic event.

Thankfully breaking is off the docket for LA28 but I'll miss watching Ami from Japan who took the gold in the ladies battles. 😍 |

I support women's sports. Where would the USA be without the women who crushed in this Olympics? But in this case, Breaking should have had the bboys go first for the inaugural event.
For the general public, male breakers are able to perform more visually stunning power moves that would impress people who don't understand intricacies of the dance.
It would be like introducing someone to basketball for the first time and a representative choosing the WNBA to be shown first (again not sexist, but c'mon ). |

| Just want to let you all know that Celtic fans whining about Jayson Tatum not getting playing time is off the charts sour grapes! They so mad. Still ranting and raving. |

I love how the world is catching up to the USA in basketball. I was on pins and needles during both finals. My only dislike about these Olympic basketball entries is the omission of Caitlin Clark. I understand the reasons and agree with them. Having said that I think it was a snub.

Competition is good. I liked how the USA women's basketball team had to struggle to get the W. It means the world has caught up. |

It was fixed to get her in. Something about her husband being the coach and the couple being involved with the Australian dance committee that was in charge of it all. Apparently, there are some First Nation people that are more talented, real B girls that didn’t get an invitation to compete in the trials.
The age isn’t as much an issue because Hong 10 is 40 and competed, but he’s also a legend and still competitive in Red Bull BC One. |

Shameful and a total embarrassment for everyone involved, from the IOC on down.

Elle Duncan did a mock Raygun on FirstTake. She got on the floor in a pink pantsuit. Elle is serious eye candy
