[HIM]

My favorite sporting event but I really wish they would have canceled it for the world’s sake.

I still be watching, but with a pained, disapproving look on my face.

A few friends and I were going back and forth between the NHL Draft & Archery/Rowing/Air Rifle on USA Network

So our country’s archery match was kind of lit . We were a 2-seed vs. a 15-seed, Indonesia: This was unbelievable, Indonesia wins the first two sets, then we barely tied it up at two sets as Indonesia started choking, and then we lost in an ARCHERY SHOOTOUT

No. 2 Team USA upset by No. 15 Indonesia in mixed team archery prelim

Team USA veterans Brady Ellison and Mackenzie Brown were knocked out of the first-ever mixed team archery prelim at the Olympics.

Just finished watching the opening ceremony.

I realllllllly missed seeing fans in the seats.

But, the competitor in me....I CANNOT wait. I want to see greatness.

Will the medals have asterisks like the Lakers championship? Lol

I'm here for it all. Olympics is one of my favorite things in the world. It maybe should not be happening because of the pandemic, but here we are. Competition is life.

 

[freeze]

The cool thing about the NBA bubble was that we were able to watch each player be their best self with no distractions and fans or haters in their heads. So I'm expecting some wild performances too

 

[HIM]

Im not even sure if what I’m watching is live but catching this USA/MEXICO softball game

 

[dmbrhs]

My favorite thing about the Olympics is watching a lot of one super-niche sport that takes place early, and then declaring myself an expert on analyzing said sport.

Goat level

[whtascene]

I'm watching this russia vs china womens 3 x 3 game. its lit.

 

[iheartboost]

Opening Ceremony showcasing all 50 types of games was pretty dope. They did have one or two errors by the logo man lol, but other then that, I enjoyed it.

this mixed team archery is tough too. the skill is tight.

mexico vs turkey. bronze medal game currently.

Korean mixed team archery just went goat level vs Netherlands. Came from behind to take gold. A team consisting of a 17 and 20 yr old. Dawg I love the olympics.

South Korean archers have always been next-level. So tough to beat.

skateboarding is an olympic event

Kinda mind-blowing (no in a bad way) that skating is an Olympic sport now. Same for 3x3 hoops.
Good for both sports.

Watching China vs Serbia... and seeing Yao Ming sitting in the stands, struggling to fit in the seats.

Best part of the opening ceremony!

I'm surprised they haven't posted the entire 10min segment up on Youtube or something.

The women's Sweden v Aussie football match ongoing now is entertaining.

The Netherlands v Brazil later should be another cracker.
