A little surprised this thread hasn't been started already, but c'est la vie.
Some good stuff - the Phelps.
Some bad stuff - Green pools.
... and meme central. First the Phelps glare (the new "Crying Jordan" but for anger). Now this great shot of Usain Bolt.

My favorite was the caption "Usain Bolt stops. Takes a selfie. Then wins race."
Usain Bolt is unreal.

Track bores me. Loved the swimming (I was one, so obv).
It's harder for female swimmers to hang onto their prime years than it is for men. But Ledecky has a shot at going down as one of the all time greats. Only 19, we'll see how she looks at 23.

2016 Rio Olympics -- U.S. swimmers Jack Conger, Gunnar Bentz ordered to stay in Brazil (http://www.espn.com/olympics/swimming/story/_/id/17332952/2016-rio-olympics-us-swimmers-jack-conger-gunnar-bentz-ordered-stay-brazil)
Is it me or does this guy Ryan Lochte seem like the biggest lying douchbag? Def with that hair qualifies him as a finalist for Douche of the Year.

Totally. Did you hear his interview?
"Then he pointed the gun to my forehead and I put my hands up and was like 'Whatever'"
Bull-fucking-shit. He pissed his pants a little bit like ALL of us would have.

lol...its amazing. lying douchbag...we need to put this guy on a plane and send him back to Brazil. less people like this in the country would be a big help.
UPDATE:
2016 Rio Olympics -- Video shows U.S. swimmer damaging gas station, fighting with security guard in Ryan Lochte incident (http://www.espn.com/olympics/swimming/story/_/id/17336394/2016-rio-olympics-video-shows-us-swimmer-damaging-gas-station-fighting-security-guard-ryan-lochte-incident)

I really don't get why it's such a huge story. The stuff people care about never ceases to amaze me. Lochte is well known as being a huge douche, probably more well known for that than his swimming.
Am I the only one that gives zero shits about the Olympics? Not to be a Debbie downer or anything.
