What's the latest murphs. Anything good shaking. I hear Biles didn't compete due to her mental state.
I can't get much into these Olympics. I am not sure if it's due to the time difference or just not generally bothered.
I would like to see that rock climbing go down though

As a former relatively decent competitive swimmer, I always get big into swimming during the olympics, and so i appreciate them putting the swimming on in the morning japan-time, so i can watch before i go to bed. Although I stayed up too late last night to watch a potential Canada medal...and we finished 4th. FFS.

I find it frustrating when TSN or Sportsnet who have 5+ cable channels each show the same thing on each fucking channel. Should be enough sports on at the same time so that they don't need to do that. Also, CBC has been shit so far. A few times now they have cut coverage to go to something else just as it was getting good. They also through in these olympic bio/interview segments at weird times. It all feels disconnected to me.

jamaican 1-2-3 in the women's 100m. get the feeling frazier-pryce & jackson don't get on with elaine thompson. give her the quickest congrats and walked away. sad for dina asher smith (out in the semi's/pulls out of 200m). shame sha'carri richardson wasn't in the mix (american beaten by 2 swiss girls).

women's 400m hurdles was another world record on the track. muhammad must be sick of the sight of mclaughlin coming by her on the stretch. andre de grasse finally delivers a big title (men's 200m). and poor KJT limps out.
