2024 Paris Summer Olympics

It was nice to see the handsome US men win the 4x100 free relay today.  And even nicer to see the Italian team in the next lane! 😛

French swimmer Leon Marchand is my new favorite Olympic athlete. He has such a cute face and his body, like most swimmers, is wonderful to look at.

The swimmers physique is definitely nice.  I love Carson Foster's sweet smile.

 

The Japanese volleyball team is cute AF (and they know it).  Would enjoy a group hug from them.  😉

This morning Saya won the women's BMX gold medal. Kai's response when asked what it felt like was a simple 'Awesome'.

Apparently living conditions in the Olympic Village are so bad that an Italian gold medalist is sleeping in a park instead of in his room:  bad food, no air conditioning, and rather uncomfortable cardboard beds.  Who knows if he's really been sleeping outside or if the photo was just for social media.

Anyone know the name of this Olympic swimmer with the gorgeous face and 6-pack abs?

Yummy.

I love how the placement of that towel makes it look like he's standing there fully nude.

Inquiring minds want to know his identity ..(so we can stalk him on social media). 🤣

Australia usually gets off to a flying start (well, not literally) in the medals tally and then tanks as the games go on. We have always been strong in the pool but other sports not so much, or at least not as much as other big sporting countries. So a top four place after three or four days is not unusual but ending up three or four places lower. This year after 12 days we are still at number three (based on number of golds with silver and bronze as tie breakers, not total medals). It is already our best Olympics ever with 18 gold, passing the 17 at Athens (2004 not 1896) and at Tokyo in 2021, and yesterday was our best day with four, in the men's 4000m team pursuit, sailing, men's skateboarding and women's pole vault.

That could well be all, but those of us who pay attention are nevertheless in a state of mild euphoria. I posted previously about the heart-warming back-story of the women's BMX win, but another set that caught national attention was sisters Jess and Noemie Fox (born in France to a French Atlanta bronze medalist mother and fourth-placed GB Olympian father who both moved to Australia to coach in the lead-up to Sydney 2000), who between them won the three women's canoe-slalom gold medals. Our usually strongly-performing men's and women's hockey teams and the perennially hopeful men's basket-ballers all lost in the quarters, but the women are into the basketball semis.

I just saw that huge uncut cock Brit Noah Williams won a bronze in diving. I'm personally no fan at all of "opinion" sports, as opposed to sports that deem the fastest / higher scoring by accomplishment rather than a panel of the opinionated. Was 4th place simply out-sized in the eyes of the judges?

The first Paris Olympic Games!

... And of course cricket will be back in 2028.
