The latest. In the 200m, Trinidad's Tebogo upsets favored USA's Noah Lyles (bronze) and Kenny Bednarek (silver) to win gold. NBC broadcasters are trying to suggest Lyles may have had a health problem since he was so out of breath at the end. What a crock! Face it, after all the buildup, Lyles just got his freekin ass beat!

200m
Tebogo 19.46
Lyles 19.62
Bednarek 19.70

I mean, I get the desire to compete especially since the Olympics only come around every 4 years, but prioritizing competing for a medal over possibly spreading COVID to other athletes just doesn't sit well with me.

I'm old enough to remember that basketball game in Munich, Germany in 1972 between the States and the USSR. Man, the fix was against the States on that day.
