For anyone that cares, I'll (try to) keep a running total of the U.S.A. medal count, and ranking.

         G     S     B     Total     Place

        36     38   36     110          1

 

China with most Golds at 51...with 10 total medals behind the U.S.

why do they count the place by the number of medals and not the type? (ex. we have 8 medals and so does china, but they have 6 gold and 2 silver opposed to our 2 gold 2 silver and 4 bronze) shouldn't it be graded on a point value, like gold=3 points, silver=2, and bronze=1?

Olympics are boring. The opening ceremony was on in a restaurant and the announcers wouldn't stfu the entire time and basically ruined whatever was going on with inane comments. I tried watching a bit of the actual games earlier and it was mindnumbing and focused totally on the US team even though they kept coming in last place (it was rowing or whatever its called). The IOC are a bunch of whores too.

The only thing worse than hearing announcers make inane comments is the fucking national pride and people thinking athletics is relevant. It's good cheap entertainment, but seriously, STFU.

 

Furthermore, worse than racial humor, physical humor... of all the lowbrow humor in the world the most repugnant is national humor. People cracking jokes about Canada's lack of clout in international politics or not being "as good as america".. or jokes about how the French surrender, or the Germans are strict and heartless, or the British wearing monocles and stovepipe hats, sipping tea, speaking elegantly.. it all makes me want to fucking puke.

It does really shit on the spirit of the Olympics being an internal thing by focusing primarily on the U.S. athletes.

And good god.. got a glimpse of the mens sand volleyball. They played "Who Let the Dogs Out"
What the fuck? In China of all places?

Yeah I've noticed that the music has all been American music when there were no Americans near it.
Even more puzzling, they played bag pipes for a long time in the opening ceremony.
