    I want to be suction cupped.

    I already use kinesiology tape.

    The Olympics is the distraction we need right now.

    Beach volleyball is pretty cool but I think I actually prefer indoor

    edit: but the beach volleyball players are mic'd up so that's cool

    Love diving, honestly. At this point I'm kind of over seeing every swimming match. I'd love to see like, a highlight reel of the day at some point

    I like using my volleyball jargon as I watch.

    I love watching volleyball, indoor and beach, but it makes me miss playing it really badly.

    Nodding along to NBC's analysis of Kerry Walsh's transition to playing the right side.

    is there a swimming final still to come tonight? NBCOlympics.com says its live but any time I try to click on it, it redirects to beach volleyball.

    They're done if you're on the east coast.

    I've used both since my accident last year and cupping has been more effective than any physical therapy i've tried. provides a nearly immediate relief of pain for several days. I actually preferred it over acupuncture.

    I like to believe that Kerri Walsh has the personality of Connie Britton in Friday Night Lights.

    East coast buddies: Does anyone know what time they showed the men's gymnastics team finals?

    Riot fest's Twitter is putting people on blast for hating Lilly King. It's great.

    A DILAPIDATED BOAT! Prestigious

    I'm actually really invested in the BMX probably more than anything, really excited for it to start. Want to see if Latvia's Maris Strombergs gets his third consecutive gold. There's a local kid who trains at my area's BMX track that is competing for Peru that I'll be rooting for along with team USA's Connor Fields.

    Is there someone called Connor competing for USA in all the events?

    Lilly King said what needed to be said, did what needed to be done. She's amazing.


    Nervous that Nathan Adrian ranked 16th in just the pre-lim heats after he won gold in that event in london. Hoping for a better semi-final performance from him.

    It bums me out that a lot of Team USA's swimming champions in the London races either didn't qualify for Rio, only qualified as an alternate, or completely lost out in semi and aren't even racing in their Medaling event.

  24. I hate how a lot of the bigger events aren't aired live but the big media outlets still announce the winners. I have to wait until primetime to watch the women's gymnastic team finals even though the results were just spoiled all over twitter.

    I was wondering why I couldn't find it on TV. Ugh, fuck you NBC.
