Ok, we are cleaning up on Silver and Bronze, which is great, but can we start getting some more gold medals? I am going full-on lazy spectator judging elite athletes from their couch mode here, but seriously, can some folks start winning some golds to bump us up a bit? Looking at the swimmers especially.
But I would also like to celebrate someone who is the only athlete from their country to have a medal so far. USA always has an abundance of medals with many of the individual athletes getting lost in the shuffle, but do you know who isn’t lost in the shuffle in Slovakia? Matej Beňuš. He won bronze in the Canoe Slalom. Nice work Matej.
Also, don’t mess with his Olympic squad. Can’t decide if I like their shirts or not but they definitely mean business…or party? The longer I stare the more confused I get. Maybe that’s the point, confuse the competition.
