What I was saying above. The more obscure the better. Sure, shooting BB guns. But they can probably put two BBs thru the same hole. They will make zero in endorsements. At best get hired as a coach somewhere. But it is somehow neat.

Though I still have not tuned in. NBC proper never going to put that on.


Some of Women's 10-meter air rifle will absolutely be replayed tonight in prime time
Ginny Thrasher, a 19-year-old West Virginia University sophomore, won gold
She may get some endorsements. Bubbly teen wins gold.
There is no doubt they will close the show tonight with the National anthem and her gold

It's hilarious that Rio has a bit about
global warming in the opening, to
show their concern. Yet they dump
all the waste that comes out of Rio
directly into the ocean, even extremely
dangerous hospital waste, even the
radioactive stuff. As a result they
have super pathogens in the water
off the Rio shore that makes it a million
times more deadly than the water off
of LA. But they care about the
environment because they had a GW
bit. Hypocrite 3rd world asswipes.

I found it quite ironic that the first U.S. gold was for shooting.

Why would that be ironic?

They are beating powerful Mexico 1-0 , its half time

Because there are a lot of guns in America and many people think it's a huge problem.

It's funny that NBC charged advertisers at
the rate of the last Olympics saying this year
there will be even more viewers. So far
ratings are down 35% over 2012, nobody
is watching.

Is it ironic that's it's an American?
