PiranhaMama seemingly has a very comfortable lead at 21 points after a big day. Brazil Nuts is trying to break the streak and finally end up on the medal stand, and then what a race with 4 teams within 6 points of each other.
Golf - the Women's tournament finished with Lydia Ko, New Zealand, of Fogo de Champion taking the Silver.
Diving - Tom Daley of my team Fogo de Champion, set an Olympic Record in the 10m platform prelims yesterday, then gets dead last today. What a mess.
In the finals, David Boudia rallied for the Bronze for It Phelps if you Walsh. Qiu Bo was expected to win, but finishes in 6th, leaving Team Mark toasted.
Basketball - the Women's Tournament concluded with the USA women getting gold again, as expected, and Real Winner picked the winner. It Phelps if you Walsh gets the silver with Spain and PiranhaMama gets the Bronze with Serbia.
Water Polo - The Men's tournament concluded with the battle of the Eleys - Serbia takes the Gold for Guanabara Gladiators over Croatia of Team Mark. Montenegro lost to Italy in the Bronze match, leaving Fogo de Champion frustrated.
Ryan Lochte - Negative 73926393 points for the dumbest interview I've ever seen. What an idiot. This is not an overexaggeration - what an idiot. Please just stop talking. -20 more points.
Football - It Phelps if you Walsh danced a samba after the thrilling penalty kick shootout between Brazil and Germany. In a storybook ending, Neymar came to the ball and delivered his team a Gold medal. No medal meant more to Brazil than this one, and 20 points means quite a lot to It Phelps. Fascinatingly, the only points for any of our teams in Football.
Rhythmic Gymnastics - Guanabara Gladiators' Russian powerhouse Yana Kudryavtseva just couldn't quite twizzle those ribbons well enough to beat her teammate, and claims the all-around silver.
Distance-Field-Decathlon-Heptathlon Super Category:
- Chaunte Lowe comes up short in 4th in the Women's high jump, and It Phelps gets no points.
- The men's 1500m race was something so epic - one of my favorite moments of the Games. Matt Centrowitz of the US held off a strong field to win the first gold medal for the US in the event since 1908. Asbel Kiprop of Team Mark finished off the podium.
- Mo Farah gets double gold for PiranhaMama with a win in the 5000m after also taking the 10000m last week. The big winner in this category.
