Anyone else watch any of this?

quick recap for those unaware: US did pretty good.

100m men: medal sweep
200m men: sweep
4x100m men: choke, came in 2nd to CAN
4x100m girls: 1st, barely eeked it out against JAM
4x400m girls: won, dominated

110HH ...US won 1st/2nd.
with that one dude from the USA getting a false start via the electronic blocks' force sensors
registering at 0.099 (0.001 over the allowed limit at 0.100 ).
All the runners look like they react at the same in the slowmo replay ....
Bet that rule gets changed soon.

Shotput: USA sweep

I'd say the highlight of the whole thing was Sydney McLaughlin's WR 400mH performance.
Her 400 hurdle time would've netted her something like 7th in the open 400 final. Fuck.
