In What Olympic Event Would You Have the Best Chance at Not Finishing Last?

I think I could do okay in that sword fighting sport (I believe at Carolina they call it fencing). Not well enough to win gold or finish anywhere other than last place, but I've always viewed myself as a bit of a swashbuckler.
You do understand that word isn't defined as a "sword swallower"?
Sorry, couldn't resist. I think we are all kidding ourselves. Unless one is really good at something, I mean really good, they are finishing dead last at the Olympics. These people are all really good.
Noah Lyles comes from behind and leans to photo finish victory by .005 seconds in Men’s 100 meters. Wowza! 👍🏾
His time: 9.79
Silver goes to Kishane Thompson, Jamaica at 9.795.
Fred Kerley, USA, wins bronze at 9.81.

that was amazing…can’t believe it’s been twenty years.
eta: now back to women’s beach volleyball lol
Top six in the men's 10K were within one second of each other. 13 were under the olympic record time.
That shyt was insane. I never knew that it was the torso crossing the line that determined the time.
Keeps people from growing five foot dreadlocks and flipping them forward.
It was unreal. I don’t know how he was able to kick that hard at the end of a fast race… just crazy.
Now maybe one of the BYU guys can pull a shocker and medal in the marathon.
Also interested to see if Ingebrigsten wins the 5k
my son told me he trains in blacksburg and they see him a lot…kinda cool.
Don't know what you posted because it got removed, but they ended up buckling down, playing D and winning.
I saw it. It said fvck around and find out. If you can relate somehow, please let me know.
It was the men's bball team playing against Serbia (who has Jokic among others). They were way down into the fourth quarter. They came back and advanced to gold medal game against France.
I saw a video of that last night with a funny take on it and it was hilarious. They said the same thing....lose one way, win another way.
I feel like it should be the new video for ABC Wide World of Sports, the thrill of victory and agony of defeat scenario. I mean, he had to be pretty sad but pretty proud all at the same time.
lol, but they might have to tweak that tag line...'the thrill of victory and the agony of da dong.'
damn, what a vault. Looked like she spared almost eight inches I could spare her about eight inches.
if you're gonna do me like that, you could at least give me a like.
She should have given it to that French guy. He might have made it over.
I guess that fake injury + twerk is something the cool kids do
Was this his first time attempting to pole vault?
Do they not have jock straps in Europe ?
If neither, then he probably had a semi after hanging around people like her for a week:
if they look dumbstruck, there's an obvious reason for it...because they are dumb to be at all interested in this crap. This sort of junk is why I watched virtually none of the Olympics.
