Paris Olympics 2024

Yanks must have had a few quid on beating the spread

There was some fella crucified online for something similar in the NBA last season. Although they may have been winning well and he scored in the last play or something like that.

Bizarre enough if you ask me

Would usually be the case in Basketball that the game and the clock would be run out. Can see why the Yanks were upset, but fuck it, this is the Olympics lads.

Nigeria will get some spanking the next time they meet though.

Yanks just gave up the ball. Depends if there’s etiquette and the Nigerians deliberately ignored.

Jeez. Jamaica out of the 100m relay

They ran out their shot clock and it would be assumed and general play that the opposition would do so also given the game is technically over. But fuck them, they left enough time on the clock to score.

I didnt see the last quarter, but its been said the US eased off and allowed the Nigerians get a run. They probably ran the bench as well. So they’d have assumed the Nigerians would have been happy enough with that.

Either way, you can see me woman regretted throwing the ball at the Nigerian as soon as she did it.

You keep saying that. The lads have posted a few tweets about it so there clearly is something online. Its like you’re dying for a whinge about tfk.

This isn’t the pro game where you have another game in a few days… Nigeria were exiting the Olympics and wanted to go out with a score… Nothing wrong with it. The yanks think the world owe them a living.

There’s uproar online over it

Yes I thought the Nigerians were very slightly out of line there and that the American lassie overreacted.

No offence, I used various search terms to find out what happened and I got nothing
The couple of tweets posted here came after my post.
It’s not a big story I guess

Savage run by the American Brandon Miller in the last 800 metres repechage. He ran from the front the whole way through and dragged the Algerian and the Norwegian into the semi-final with him too.
