US athletes have now won seventy one Olympic medals, 0:00:14.480 --> 0:00:17.279 nineteen of those gold, and China has moved into second 0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:20.599 place with forty five. You see the big lead disparity there, 0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:23.520 France dropping to third place with forty four medals. 0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:25.480 He welcome, never bond it to Amy and TJ. And 0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:28.320 it ain't bragging if you can back it up. Noah 0:00:28.360 --> 0:00:31.240 Lyles talked the talk. Then he ran that race. The 0:00:31.280 --> 0:00:35.040 Americans cemented his place as the fastest man alive in 0:00:35.040 --> 0:00:39.840 a race that was the fastest and closest in Olympic history. 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:43.240 Also, in this tea from Perry edition of Amy and TJ, 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:47.280 Sonny Lee shines so brightly that Eva Mendez and Ryan 0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:50.800 Gosling have to keep their shades on. Meanwhile, a dazzling 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:54.560 French gymnast wins a gold medal, but another country gets 0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:57.400 to claim the victory and a one hundred year old 0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:00.840 win streak on the line for American swimmers. Bobby Fink 0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:01.639 to the rescue. 0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:04.240 Plus the boxer at the center of the gender controversy 0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:07.160 calls for an end to bullying. Also, US men lose 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:10.840 an event at the Olympics that they have never lost before. 0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:13.720 And the US women's basketball team makes me and bro 0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:15.240 Box feels stupid. 0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:18.480 And could you win a gold medal with your ex? 0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:21.560 What event was such a big deal that Adele stopped 0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:25.560 her live concert to see it? And finally our apology 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:27.399 to the US women's national team. 0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:29.840 And with all that, here we are this morning doing 0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:33.800 our thing once again. This is a very busy morning again, folks. 0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:37.240 We record a day of very early We get up 0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:39.400 at three or four am, start watching events, and today 0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:42.920 is a very busy day of event watching and stars. 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:48.000 Yeah, we've been watching women's diving and now we're watching gymnastics. 0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.960 I mean, these are marquee events in the Olympics and 0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:52.000 so fun to watch. 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.120 And we are literally looking live right now as we 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:56.440 record this. Simone is about to do her thing and 0:01:56.520 --> 0:02:00.559 Soony Lee on the balance beam. So if you're listening 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.800 to us, then you already missed it live probably and 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:04.880 you might know the results. I'm sure. I'm pretty sure 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:06.240 this is gonna be on TV somewhere. 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.720 Yeah, we've been focused a lot. Is anyone else out 0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:12.080 there looking at the uniforms. I mean, I don't know why, 0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.799 but it just feels fun to come. Some countries are 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:19.840 doing better than others. We're big fans of Italy's outfits 0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:22.760 just all in all the events, they're just slaying it. 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:24.160 When it comes to the fashion, the. 0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:26.239 Divers is one. They were great. They have very sleek, 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.880 they were subtle, but the flag on the side. Those 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:32.239 might be my favorite uniforms I've seen at the Olympic. 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.320 We do every single event is a fashion show, and 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:37.120 we are absolutely fashion critics. 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:38.960 We have the Fashion Olympics for all of that. We 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.880 decide who has the best uniforms, who has the worst, 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:48.160 and the US has been you know what I will say, 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:49.880 I have been a big fan. 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:50.120 You know. 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:54.160 I love that Italy hoodie. I think it's so cool. 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:56.720 The hood has the red, the white and the green 0:02:56.760 --> 0:03:02.079 in the back. And I loved the initial French gymnasts leotards. 0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:05.760 They were beautiful, stunning, the white with the blue and 0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:07.640 red kind of ribbons. It was beautiful. 0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:11.840 Anyway, I forgot about Italy's the soft blue. It's like blue, 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:12.640 the perfect blue. 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:15.960 Yeah. I know, of course they know fashion and they're 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:17.160 showing up on the Olympics. 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.160 At the Olympics, you're gonna have to I'm gonna stop 0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:22.119 getting up by myself at three and four in the morning. 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:23.640 I'm gonna make you get up with me, because I 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:25.560 end up and it's so sad. I end up sitting 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:28.880 out here by myself in tears every single morning because 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:32.120 one that damn Dick's Sporting Goods commercial. It gets me 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:33.799 every time. So that got me a game. You need 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.320 somebody to hug well, I need Maybe if you were here, 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:37.960 I wouldn't just let it out. I would kind of 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:39.760 keep it in, or I wouldn't be so emotional. But 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:41.560 the other thing got me this morning. I swear the 0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:45.000 platform diving and this is just another sign of just 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:48.360 what the Olympics is. The two platform divers from Mexico 0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:54.040 with telling the story that they have been in previous Olympics. 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:57.240 They both have medals. They were on the brink of 0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:00.200 selling their gold medals. Excuse me, their medals was a 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:03.920 bronze and a silver, selling them to fund their diving 0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:06.960 and their training and their traveling. They're at the Olympics now, 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:10.400 but that's where they were about to sell their other 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:12.800 Olympic medals just so they could stay on course to 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:16.000 come here aerow Mexico. The airline stepped in and say 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:20.360 we got you. That's one of the EXE And I'm 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.280 in here sitting by myself listening to that story and 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:23.560 rooting for these Mexican divers. 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.360 Yeah, I mean I yeah, five am is such a 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.760 better start time for me. I just have to say 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.080 just mentally for the rest of the day. However, yesterday 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:35.080 I did get up with you at three thirty because 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:35.760 we had to run. 0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:39.520 Oh yeah, you know, I forgot about that. That was 0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.360 a hell of a day. We had done two interviews, 0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:45.800 recorded a podcast, ran a half marathon before nine am. 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:49.120 It was a lot. And what time did I fall 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.440 asleep last night? Around eight? 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:55.320 We've been getting in bed earlier. But yeah, we felt 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:55.960 like a bad. 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:58.359 We had dinner in bed and fell asleep. Let's just 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.680 be honest. That's how the day ended. 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.719 But we did put the food up before we did. 0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:05.920 That was a win. That was our metal for the night. 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:09.200 But the marathon went. The half marathon, it was not 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.480 a marathon, went well. It was my slowest half marathon 0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:15.200 I've ever run that I know of, but it was 0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:17.599 ninety one percent humidity, and I'm going to just give 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:21.080 myself I finished. I'm not in a race right now. 0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:22.080 I'm just training. 0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:24.000 We say, yeah that we I don't know if we 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:26.080 made that clear. Yes, we say we were training. We 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:27.760 did run a half marathon as part of the training. 0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.920 It was not an official race. It was just part 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:33.159 of marathon training, and so the time didn't matter, although 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:35.000 it does get in your head, especially I think after 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.720 watching all of these Olympics, I'm like competing with myself 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:39.680 now at this point. But I had to give myself 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.440 a break and I just let it be my slowest 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.520 time ever, because that's just is a part of it. 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:46.960 Sometimes it is inspirational to see them doing what they're doing, 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:49.440 knowing what that training took, knowing they're going through little 0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:52.960 battles and injuries and pains, and all I got to 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:54.080 do is to put one foot in front of the 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:54.880 other and keep going. 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:56.720 You know I did. It's exactly what I was saying 0:05:56.760 --> 0:05:59.960 to myself, all you have to do. This isn't skillful. 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.200 You just have to put one foot in front of 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:03.160 the other and not fall. 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.760 It didn't help that we were coming around that curve 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.400 and those two passed us. You're like, they look like Olympians. 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.039 Oh my gosh. There was a couple. Oh this is 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:12.640 I wish we had a video of it. There was 0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:15.680 a couple who just came flying by us and they 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:19.840 looked like at the very least Peloton instructors and at 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:24.360 the very most Olympians, and they were just smoking us 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.160 and they were smoking their bot. I was just like, wow, 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:30.840 that was actually inspiring to me, slightly defeating. You didn't 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:33.919 speed up though, no, no, no no, I needed to 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.479 pace myself. I don't think they were necessarily running thirteen 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:37.800 point one miles like we were. 0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:41.479 That's a good point. But yesterday to the Olympics, and 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:44.800 it was one of and lot. We'll tell you the 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:48.920 marquee event of every every Olympics, the men's one hundred 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:51.800 meters dash. But it delivered drama in a finish like 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:56.000 we have never seen before. This is just not history 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:59.039 made or record broken. This was as a race and 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.600 as a whole something we have not seen an American 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:04.400 history in Olympic history. We got the American Noah Lyles. 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:06.359 He lived up to the hype and all his history 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:10.680 onics and solidified his title as fastest man alive by 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:13.160 winning the gold medal en row of one hundred meters, 0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:16.680 but by the smallest margin we have ever seen an 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:17.360 Olympic history. 0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:20.240 That's right, So how close are we talking? The first 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:23.800 and second place finishers both clocked the same time, like 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.800 if you looked up on the leaderboard, nine point seven 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:29.120 to nine seconds, so they had to take it down 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.000 to the thousandth zuh. I can't even say that word 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:34.000 of a second, not the hundredths of a second, but 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.760 the thousandth of a second. And with the help of 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:40.960 a photo finish, Lyles got the gold by five thousandths. 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:43.679 I never have to say that word again, of a second, 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.559 I'm telling you. Even in the replays in slow motion, 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.840 I could not tell that Lyles won the picture. 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:53.440 It was a photo finish and I was still looking 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.520 at it. Can't tell he won. Wow. 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:58.880 And then not just the two finishers first and second place. 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:02.160 This field was so fast that this was the first 0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:03.280 time in Olympic history. 0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:05.040 Oh my god, you all. 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:06.280 Oh sorry, you just stopped me. 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:06.920 Wait? 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.320 Oh no, all right, well we won't say what happens. 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.320 It's not good. This is the first time in Olympic 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:17.360 history that the one through eight finishers in the one 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:22.480 hundred all came in under ten seconds. That's remarkable. And 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:24.960 also this was shocking to me. This is a good 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.040 stat Oh wait, I was not about to say the 0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:28.720 same stat you were. 0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:30.920 I don't think the next the next stat say that. 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:31.440 You say that one. 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.920 Yeah, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh, and eighth place finisher. 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:38.040 So let let me make that clear. The guys who 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:43.240 all did not meddle, who came in fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, 0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:47.640 and eighth, they all set world records for the best 0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:52.640 times we have ever seen for a fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, 0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:56.120 and eighth place finishers. That's how fast the field was. 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.040 This is the fastest we've ever seen losers run. 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:00.280 Wow, that's a good way to put it, but it 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.880 was true. It really was unbelievable to watch. Also, it 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:08.080 made it more thrilling. Forty meters into the race, Noah 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:13.199 Lyles was in last place. Halfway through, he had made 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.920 his way up to seventh place. So to see him 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:18.680 go from last and he was back there for quite 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:22.480 a bit to first was remarkable. And he's the first 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:26.280 American man to win gold since Athens, so that's quite 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.120 a while. And now the ship is focusing too. The 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:32.160 two hundred meter, which everyone says that's actually his best event. 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.719 So prelims start this afternoon and he could become the 0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.120 first American man to win gold in both the one 0:09:38.240 --> 0:09:41.000 hundred and the two hundred meters at the same Olympics 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:43.880 since Carl Lewis back in nineteen eighty four. 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:46.280 And speaking of our guy Carl, this is the last 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:48.400 stat we'll give you to show you just how fast 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:52.800 the field was yesterday. In the one hundred meter. Carl 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:56.640 Lewis won the gold in Seoul, South Korea, back in 0:09:56.760 --> 0:10:00.000 nineteen eighty eight, and he set a world record when 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:01.960 he did it. Robes. The world record at that time 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:06.120 was nine point nine to two. Nine point nine two. 0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:08.360 Carl Lewis would have come in dead last in that 0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:09.040 race yesterday. 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:10.360 That's remarkable. 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:13.160 He would have been last. It was good enough to 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.320 get him a gold in eighty eight. He would have 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.160 been last. That's how fast it was. So that was 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.040 very fun to watch. And you all have to forgive 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.120 us here as we're as we're talking to you, we're 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.320 a little distracted because we watched it live and we 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:27.720 just watching Sunny Lee perform on balance beam. You do 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:29.160 need to tune in I don't know if you're going 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:30.640 to try to track it down. Were try not to 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:34.200 give you any results or anything that you ruin anything, 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:37.360 any spoilers. But watching Sonny Lee perform and it wasn't 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:40.880 her best performance here, had a little bit of a 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.440 bad situation here on the balance beam. But she's given 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.200 us so much joy. Oh she had these Olympics and 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.000 so she just seeing her do her thing and get it. 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:50.760 She's smiling now on the side to. 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:53.560 I love her spirit. You can just see her energy 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:55.680 come through the television. And by the way, I love 0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:58.600 her leotard today, it's really it's banging. 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:03.679 I love her leotard to they brought it fashion. 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:06.840 We'll we'll keep it in gymnastics because we had so 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:10.880 much fun watching gymnastics yesterday. And here's a stat for you. 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:15.400 The best French gymnast wins gold for Algeria. But she's 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:19.400 making history for an entire continent. Algeria's Kaylie and Nimore, 0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:23.520 who was just seventeen, became the first African gymnast to 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:25.839 win an Olympic medal. And it wasn't just any metal. 0:11:26.120 --> 0:11:29.760 She won gold with a near perfect routine on the 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:33.520 uneven bars. It was so beautiful to watch. She was born, 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.720 she was raised, She even trains in France. But she 0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:40.840 started representing Algeria just last year because the French Gymnastics Federation, 0:11:41.440 --> 0:11:44.760 for whatever reason, didn't clear her to resume competition following 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.360 a knee surgery in twenty twenty one. I don't know 0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:49.440 that there was some back and forth about that, but 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.640 her father is Algerian, so she was allowed to compete 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:54.920 with the Algerian team. And you know it didn't matter. 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:57.839 The crowd treated her like a hometown girl. They went 0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:01.320 wild for her after that incredible routine. So didn't seem 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:03.880 like there was any bad blood. But gotta say success 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:05.720 has to be the best revenge. I was just thinking, 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:08.800 too bad France, the score for Algerie. 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:11.600 No bad blood. They embraced her and I'm sure they 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:13.960 understand and they get it, and and she is. We 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:15.720 watched her in the all round. We've been watching her 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:17.520 and didn't know who she was, like, wow, she is 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:20.000 fantastic and now we get it. And to see her 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.520 pick up a goal that routine yesterday was wow, was 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.960 a wow. Yeah, she made some moves I didn't make sense. 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.560 You actually gasped when you saw her do it. Her 0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:31.719 score of fifteen point seven, by the way, tied for 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:34.400 the highest score of the meet in any event. That 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.720 just shows you how good she was. And then Sunny 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:37.839 Lee also competed. 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:40.840 Yes, Dax that ron she was fun. She was. She 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:43.760 has such a clean exercise on the uneven bar, so 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:47.839 she was fun. While she got her second now bronze 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:51.720 in Paris, so the first was a second. Actually she 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.079 got the bronze on the uneven bars before. It's a 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:56.520 third medal of the Olympics. So her career toll is 0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:59.120 now six and she is one. She represents the US 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.960 so well, not to say anybody else doesn't. She's just 0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:04.640 such a little delight and always down there having fun. 0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:07.400 She really is somebody I've had a lot of fun 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:08.120 watching this year. 0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:10.040 And her teammates were rooting for her. The Golden Girls 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:11.960 were all in the stands, including some of the biles 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:23.360 watching her. It's fun to watch them. See the celebrities 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.760 who come to Paris to cheer on, especially the gymnasts. 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:29.200 We've seen a lot of celebrities and in tennis as well, 0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:31.760 but we saw a rare sighting of Ryan Gosling and 0:13:31.760 --> 0:13:35.520 Eva Mendez together. They were looking super cool. They kept 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:40.079 their shades on the entire time. I get it too, 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:41.960 but it was it was cool to see them and 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:43.920 again they didn't they look just so cool. 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:44.640 It was just chill. 0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:48.160 It's fun to see them celebrity sighting. 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.559 They casual sporting event and they were dressed the part. 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:52.760 It was but a lot of I think we see 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:57.280 more stars problem than gymnastics in the stands for anywhere 0:13:57.320 --> 0:13:58.920 else some of the swimming, but this has been fun 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:00.840 to watch in the support, a lot of support for 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:06.280 the swimmers as well. And Bobby Fink. I don't know 0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:08.840 if that medal can get golder, but he just picked 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:10.840 up a very important gold medal. He came to the 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.520 rescue of an American wind streak that dates back to 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:16.559 nineteen oh four. Check this out. American men have won 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:20.720 an individual gold medal in swimming in every Olympic since 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:23.160 nineteen oh four. It was held in Saint Louis, of 0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:27.200 all places. But until yesterday in Paris, American men had 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:31.040 been shut out no gold medals in any individual event. 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:34.680 Of course, they had won some in some relays, but 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:40.040 an individual race. Up until yesterday, American man had not 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:41.800 won a gold medal at these games. 0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:45.720 So he won the race and in world record fashion, correct, 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:47.360 he broke the world record. 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:51.120 Yeah, he broke a record. He wins his race. This 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:54.880 was the fifteen hundred I believe it was for him. 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:57.000 It's nearly a mile by the way, for people, just 0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:59.440 to get a perspective, fifteen hundred meter because that kind 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:01.440 of means nothing to me a lot of times. But 0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:04.520 it's basically, he swam a mile and he won gold 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:08.440 by nearly four seconds. And the yeah, the world record 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:11.560 he shattered was set back in twenty twelve by a 0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:15.080 Chinese swimmer. More on that in just a bit, but yeah, 0:15:15.120 --> 0:15:16.040 that was incredible. 0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:19.040 And also women picked up gold. The American women got 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:21.520 a gold in the four by one hundred meter men late. 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.600 They won that one by three seconds, set a world 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:25.600 record there as well. Again three seconds in the pool. 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:26.200 That's a blowout. 0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:29.200 So that brings the tally for US swimmers to eight 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:33.440 gold medals in Paris, which is nothing. Well that's something 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:35.520 to brag about, let's just say. And and by the way, 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:37.640 also the pool is done like that was it for 0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:40.200 swimming in a pool, But there are still two outdoor 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:43.160 swimming races in the sein, so we can talk about 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:44.760 the scent a little bit more. But the men's and 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:49.880 women's outdoor ten thousand meter marathon swimming competitions are Thursday 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:52.720 and Friday, so two more swimming events, but they're in 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:53.040 the scent. 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:56.040 Let's see if they'll go off. We have to keep 0:15:56.120 --> 0:15:59.360 checking that water. People check the chlorine levels in the backyard, 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:00.480 what they're. 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:04.800 Doing in a second and swim in yum. 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.840 Though Bobby Feaks saved us on that. On that streak, 0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:10.400 But another streak for Americans has ended. Check this out. 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:14.320 Since the four by one hundred medley relay was introduced 0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.960 in the Olympics in nineteen sixty, American men have won 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:20.440 gold in this event, have never lost it at the 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.400 Olympics that they have been in since it was introduced. Now, 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:25.480 the four by one hundred medley, this is the one 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:27.760 where you got four guys. Each one does a different 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:31.600 discipline butterfly, brass, backstro freestyle. So that's the race we're 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:35.400 talking about. That winning streak has ended now and it 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:38.440 was ended yesterday by China. Us touched the wall half 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.320 second behind the Chinese team. Sounds close, but it didn't 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:43.280 take a photo finish. This was kind of a really 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:45.160 robes of dominant performance by the Chinese. 0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:46.920 Yeah, and then I said more to come on the 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:49.480 Chinese swimmers, because there has been so much talk about 0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:52.240 them in recent days after The New York Times reported 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:56.080 that about a dozen swimmers on the current Chinese Olympic 0:16:56.480 --> 0:17:00.280 team failed drug tests before the Tokyo Olympics, but they 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:04.160 were cleared to compete by Chinese officials. There were no ramifications. 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:09.280 They claimed that they ate some meat that had the 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:12.600 contaminant inside of it, and from what we've heard from 0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:16.000 the IOC, there was no way to disprove that claim, 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:19.040 so they allowed them to compete anyway. But two of 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:22.159 those athletes who failed those drug tests are on the 0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:25.200 relay team that beat the Americans yesterday. And Bobby Fink, 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:27.360 you know, he had just won, so he was being 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:31.199 interviewed by reporters. He made some strong comments about that. 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:34.920 He said. I'm going to quote him in Sport. One 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:37.000 of my favorite quotes I've seen lately is there is 0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:39.399 no point in winning if you don't win it fair. 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:41.640 I think you know the truth in your heart. Even 0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:44.240 if you touch and you know you're cheating, you're not 0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:47.400 winning right. So for me, if you've been on that 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:51.240 and you've been contaminated twice. I think as an honorable person, 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:54.520 it means you should be out of the sport. He 0:17:54.600 --> 0:17:57.439 did not mince his words, he did not split hairs. 0:17:57.680 --> 0:17:59.639 He made his feelings known, and I think a lot 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:01.040 of folks feel the same. 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:04.399 There's in there. And then there's another side to the argument. 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:06.760 I don't know. I mean, are we supposed it's tough 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:09.159 to take somebody at their work when there's been like 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:12.040 an incident after incident after incident after incident, and then 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.600 there was another It came out after we heard about 0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:20.080 those failed drug tests. That was another two swimmers two 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:23.440 years ago. Chinese gets the same thing they got called 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:26.040 the drug test and got cleared by the Chinese. A 0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:28.600 lot of times you get a doping ban in swimming, 0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:32.000 it can go year years plus. So this is a 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:32.560 big deal. 0:18:32.600 --> 0:18:34.800 As it should. You're cheating. You know you are cheating. 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:37.159 And I was just saying to you as we were 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:42.600 prepping for today, it blows my mind that the country 0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:46.760 whose athletes are accused of doping is the one that 0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:50.960 clears them, or decides or gives an explanation or chooses 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:53.960 not to discipline them. That doesn't that doesn't seem like 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:56.919 an outside investigation, and that seems like what would have 0:18:57.000 --> 0:18:59.200 to be the case if you wanted it to seem 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:00.000 legit and betranded. 0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:02.800 You got the home team who was supposed to be 0:19:03.760 --> 0:19:05.320 checking the home team, and that. 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:09.080 Was every reason to want the best players or the 0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:11.680
