USWNT recovers with 6-1 blowout of #22 New Zealand, still the favorite to win Gold.

US Men's VB team beat France 3-0 (18, 18, 22) and now lead Pool B. Per the announce crew, this was something of a shocker as FRA is expected to be good (they came out really flat, though), and at least one member of Team USA was expected to be hobbled by an ankle injury, but showed no evidence of that.

A loss to the Surrender Monkeys is humiliating.

Austrian women's cyclist pulls the biggest upset of the games, taking off and never slowing down.

Austrian mathematician Anna Kiesenhofer won the gold medal in women's road race on Sunday. Kiesenhofer holds a doctorate in applied maths. Kiesenhofer stuns with gold, Austria's 1st cycling medal since 1896.

All the other riders forgot she was there - they thought they had swallowed up the breakaway pack. The Dutch cyclist in second thought she had won and started celebrating.

Local kid who frequents the skate parks three blocks from my house won bronze in Street Skateboarding.

A 34-year-old American looked solid most of the way during Women's Street finals before the two 13-year-olds ran away with it on the last two tricks.

South Dakota is not the South.

BTW the toothbrush was invented in WV because if it had been invented anywhere else it would be called the “teethbrush”

That’s 53 more than the Israeli team would have beat them by.

Not a win to brag about for sure.
