    Per capita is really the only tally that matters IMHO.

    China would have to win over 1000 medals to compete with those smaller country's one. I don't think that's a very good scale.

    It's a great scale. China shouldn't be able to compete with those smaller countries. If you have more than 5 million people in your country, that's your fault.

    I wish I was getting laid so often the US population was my fault.

    Actually, no I don't. I'd be really dehydrated.

    Rhythmic gymnastics is rather awesome. I believe that I think this every Olympics only to re-discover it every time.

    The tricks these girls maneuver with the ball and hoop are astounding.

    The Power of the Dog - 7.5

    I'm so proud of our handball team. They gave it all, especially in the second half, fighting not only against the opponent, but also against the shameful, almost criminally bad refereeing by the (in)famous Bonaventura sisters. It was incredible what they did, I almost lost my voice yelling at the screen, but of course - it was not to be. It's a sad and unfitting end to a wonderful story.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?
