That was a pretty nice free kick by Mihailovic.

new angle of the pass that won the gold...: https://www.pinkbike.com/news/video-the-mistake-that-cost-a-gold-medal-in-the-olympic-mens-mountain-bike-race.html
Looks like Koretzky washed the front wheel in a corner, and Pidcock switched lines to go around him on the inside. Perfectly normal, even not in a race, but totally expected in a race situation.

That wasn't the final pass, though, was it? This is what I saw:

ETA: Looks like the mistake Koretzky made was a bit before this final pass.
oh yeah... they do look like separate events. 
hrug: I don't know. both seem legit. so no complaints from me.

Yeah - there was def no washout into a tree in that final clip. I'd like to know where on the course that incident happened.oh yeah... they do look like separate events.
Yeah, I thought it was an Incredibal Race. The 3rd place SA rider is the first Medal for that Country in Biking. He was fucking mashing with every cell of his Body to me to keep up. I thought he looked so good that he might be saving for a push. I knew the Frenchman was holding back,then that quick move when on thin ice was unreal.
At that Point,you are spent,and Anything that Fucks with that can be hard to recover in time. I wish he would have used his Elbow to push Off with his Head Up clicking back in meantime while keeping momentum. He did not look up,by the time he did, it was over.
Easy for my Sorry Ass to say,I know. I was just thinking out loud.
The Course. It was terrible when you have the Best in the World,what Gary say an Hour away? I agree,no excuse.
Last,the Booth. Fucking have the World’s Best,Warner and Frishy you numb cunts.

I'ma spin my bike trainer around 3:00 and can't decide if I want to watch the live USA men's basketball game or the replay of the men's triathlon. HARD CHOICES.
I feel you. Got all this record shit,I can’t watch it all? Doing my Best boon.
Phelps watching ButterFly Frenchman win the Gold. His coach was Phelps Coach. I reckon Phelps and him are buddies. Phelps was Yoked up on the victory. Screaming and veins pumping. Interesting.
Fucking PingPong this morning. The #1 Player In The World,who is From China,in the round of 32 has Lost! Man,I have seen sooo many matches,but ain’t Never seent this? This young man they say, “just got his ranking at 17th in the Worid”. A Sleeper Boy’s,man,what a match. Forgive me,I forgot what Country he is from? Sweden I think? He came into World Champs over 100th rank and came in 2nd. Then the World took notice. Now he did this,can not wait to see what happens.
Man,I have more thoughts but am tired.
Gary,when is this BMX Men’s Race? Damit to Hell!

I guess I will bring it up. The Wife was talking about this Womens Boxing match in which there was a Problem. Problem being the one Lady said “she can not take the hit” or something there by. The other women/man was a Trans. I have not seen or heard of this.
Now,I have heard of this in College,but it got by Avy on this Stage. I am mad. What the Fuck? So many things to say. Ummm,is this not the ultimate Bully? I mean,to beat up on a Boy who is smaller and weaker than you is bad enough. Now we have a New Bully. A Bully who think’s He has the Right to Beat Women and feel good about it. Sorry,not working for me. You are a Man,nothing will change that. Even if you look Pretty with Proper Botty and Breast,you are a Man. In any Event you have the Advantage. I’m ok with you’re new self,but do not kid you’re self that is OK to compete with Women.
Where does this come from?
If a Women trans to a Man,which happen’s. Does She go and Compete against Men? No. Why not? Well,I reckon Avy that She is not Stupid,she knows that She is a Women and Can Not beat a Man.
But if you are a Man and Trans to a Women,why you can Beat to them Hell and Back.
So what does the LGBQT Piemotherfuckers say about that?
Watching Semis Ping Pong BRA vs SWE. What a Match!

Wow,really? I have not done anything but work. I was wondering why I have not heard of this? Are you saying this is not a Fact?

Womans XC coverage sucked and I have conspiracies on that. I enjoy a race but watching the leaders only was disappointing, show me the struggle bus. The mens coverage however showed everyone in the field through the race, not hyperfixed on the leaders. There were more passing situations in the mens race however, which made a more exciting watch. I think the camera men were french and because their hometown hero was out front, they focused on her moment. Listening to the French announcer, which I assume is how it was broadcasted over the local intercoms, he broke down in tears when miss france won. Was it emotion in the editing room? Or did they learn how to film a race better for the men by learning from past experience? I refuse to settle on that men get better coverage than woman BS, to me they are equally interesting and deserve equal coverage. Show me the losers! /end rant
I only saw the last seconds of that race. Half of the men’s race. What Country are you in?

JHFC have you tried trying?
Unhinged controversy around Olympic boxer Imane Khelif should never happen again.
The IOC has two choices: find someone who can manage this tournament or rid the Olympics of boxing.

I was able to watch the women's bike race and then men's 100m final today. Just awesome, both of them.
This is kinda crazy. Maybe it's the shoes.
The flock of pigeons on the pitch at this Mor-Esp game are *killing* me. 
men's mile race was pretty awesome. i love that the shit talking, over-hyped netherlands dude and british dude got taken down.
i also love watching the hurdles and 400/4x400, as that's was i ran (fairly decently) in hs and college. the speed those people have is nuts.

I had dreams of running the 400IH in the Olympics - i think the current WR is probably 10s faster than my PR. “Dreams…”
but then we would have one less opportunity to discuss the heavy-handed tactics China (and others...) bring to the world stage...
hello fellow former hurdler friend! i never had those dreams...was hs state champ (independent schools) in 300h; mid-pack in d3 college 400h...so now i just ride my bike and pretend i'm going fast
Seriously, I can't see half the serves.These table tennis players are not humans.
