Day 6 - Medals Galore (Unless you're Australian)

Day 6 Scoreboard:

(Note: I noticed yesterday it wasn't counting the number of medals correctly, but the total score has been correct.  I've corrected the medal counts on the scoreboard!)

Swimming - some Rowdy Gaines quotes on Australian swimmers

• Mitch Larkin - PiranhaMama "Has had a disappointing meet, but got some redemption" - Silver
• Emily Seebohm - Real Winner "Mitch Larkin's girlfriend and the queen of backstroke...well there's going to be a new queen of backstroke" - 6th in a semifinal
• Cameron McEvoy - Team Leroy "A disappointment" - 7th place
• Cate and Bronte Campbell - "Should be the first sisters to medal in the same event" - no medals

Also:

Michael Phelps - Brazil Nuts- "Old Man Swimmer" - really good at swimming, another Gold

Ryan Murphy - Team Leroy - Another Gold for the Irish Backstroker

Kosuke Hagino  - Real Winner - Proves a solid pick with a gold, silver and bronze across the games

Sarah Sjostrom - Team Leroy - Matches the feat with a gold, silver, bronze

Rowing had it's first medals given out today

• Team Leroy with a silver from the Men's Australian Quad
• Fogo de Champion struck gold with, as Google describes, the "Men's Coxless Pair" from New Zealand
• Team Mark gets 20 points from the Croatian Doubles
• It Phelps if you Walsh sang a high note getting a Gold from his Swiss Men's Lightweight Coxless Four

Fencing:

• PiranhaMama gets some redemption with Xu Anqi getting a silver with Team China in the Epee

Cycling:

Track cycling began with the Team Sprint!

• Eddie Dawkins of Team New Zealand led them to a Silver, setting an Olympic record in a Heat over Joachim Eilers of Team Germany and It Phelps if you Walsh.  Team New Zealand was only beat by Great Britain and their amazing effort to improve by .2 seconds over their heat time, which stole the Olympic record from the Kiwis.  Germany did not make the medal stand.

Rugby concluded with Fiji winning the country's first ever medal.  It Phelps if you Walsh disappointingly doesn't get any points as New Zealand somehow finishes off the podium in 5th.

Archery featured the Women's individual tournament - 

• Ki Bo-Bae pulled out the Bronze for Fogo de Champion
• Surpisingly, this was the only medal awarded with contenders Mackenzie Brown of Brazil Nuts, Tan Ya-Ting of Real Winner, and Choi Mi-Sun of Team Mark all being upset along the way.

Gymnastics - As expected Simone Biles of PiranhaMama is the queen of the games winning the all-around gold.  Aly Raisman of Guanabara Gladiators threw it down and won the Silver.

And finally.  TABLE TENNIS, what you've all been waiting for, especially if you're Team Leroy

• Ma Long as expected dominates the gold medal match 4 - 0 winning for Team Leroy
• Zhang Jike of Fogo de Champion sat there and let Ma Long punish him with ping pong balls, but still gets a Silver for being present.
• Jun Mizutani of Real Winner was also successful winning the Bronze
