What is the deal with the women screaming after everything they do? Shot putt, hammer throw, fencing, frickin' BADMINTON fergawdsakes. When did this nonsense start?

I haven't watched one minute of it.

The Olympics are another in a long line of once great institutions that have been completely destroyed by the idiots on the Left.

I think athletic events without spectators is runining all sports. It just isn't the same. And I don't think the athletes don't put out the effort if there's nobody to watch and cheer them on.

I haven't watched it like I used to, but the son of one of my schoolmates is on the water polo team. It's been fun to watch that.

Was watching some women's beach volleyball: Australia vs China. Chinese chicks were screaming every time they scored a point. Come to think of it: most (but not all) of the screamers have been Chinese.

I've been watching quite a bit of it. The swimming was fun to watch.

I haven’t seen any of it, but it sounds like it’s mirroring the bizarre behavior of athletes in general..tearing their shirts off, dancing in the end zone, and the worst of the worst..GROWN MEN CRYING WHEN THEY LOSE!! Where the hell did THAT come from?

So which mske athletes do you not want to see cry? Roger Staubach? Rick Flair? (I know, kind of like dirt track racing so it doesn't account for much), Tim Tebow? Nancy Kerrigan ([ know, not a male athlete)? Wayne Gretzgy? Michael Jordan? Danny White? Shall I go on?

I saw the 400M hurdle guy from Norway trying (and failing) to rip his shirt off. I thought that was weird. But my daughter had an interesting take: she thinks that there is a lot of blood doping going on, and that guy is a great example of it. She mentioned several others, as well.

When I hear them doing it, I turn that **** off. Ain't nobody got time for that. It's incredibly annoying.
