Dressel is absolutely a better athlete than Phelps. He could absolutely do some things we’d thought we’d never see after Phelps.

I felt “existentially unnerved” the whole dang movie.

SPOILIES!!

I read the first and listened to the last two. I thought the first was interesting but actively disliked the other two.

I for sure thought the first line of this post was gonna be - “Remember this kid? If you do at all, maybe it’s because you saw him...” grinning like a goofball at sex noises. 

Not the only high profile resignation today!

Potential underage pornographic images of Kukors.

Does the record mean less, given the teams in the “real” final might have been racing tactically and/or had more competition around them? Guessing the Dutch team might’ve just been able to let ‘er rip among nobody thanks to the relative lack of stakes.

She sucks and I hate her.

And what’re you checking the time for, anyway? You gonna leave at 7:30p no matter how far into the movie we are? PUT IT AWAY.

wait, really? This my “Sinbad starred in Shazaam” moment.

Did Embiid say, “I’m daddy?”

That was more “disrespectful” than anything Kaepernick ever did.

I’m going to get buried down here in the greys, but piece was almost 9,000 words and it didn’t even link everything I could think of off the top of my head.

Chuck Wielgus is a monster, example one. Example two. The entire piece from the first link is pretty horrible.

Watching the first video - an accurate call of the events - immediately after reading the headline of this post broke my brain for waaaaaay too long.

Norway’s made me think we sent a contingent from Mississippi.

Markelle thinks y’all are being awfully pushy with all these blogs.

The medal ceremonies coming too soon after / too close to the beginning of other races is legitimately an issue swimmers at the Olympics have to work around. (Mostly just for athletes with a really packed schedule - your Phelps and Ledecky type guys, but still.)

There seem to be videos of this one, at least from inside the school. I can’t remember that happening before, and that’s a good thing.
