Mad props to the cylcists risking clear bodily harm going 35mph in turns in the rain. Wow.

The commentators need to stfu

They were just rude and disrespectful. Also they had nowhere near any idea of the symbolism used there.

Without commentary here

Nice thanks !

Ah yes, the famously French video game protagonist Ezio Auditore da Firenze.

As far as I know, at least the first AC was entirely made by the French studio of Ubisoft though. Knowing how French culture works and is usually advertised, it's more about what France and French speaking countries have done than purely French stuff - hence why Celine Dion was chosen to do her stuff as a reprisal of a Piaf for example as Dion is French Canadian. (Also pulling it off in this setting must have been something...)

Also, the uproar from part of the web when it comes to the last super with drag queens is hilarious, when it's just French cabaret mixed with fairly typical mockery of religious things.

Yo women's rugby fucking rules! This is way more exciting to watch than American football.

Also, let's go Canadian women's footy team! Showing the host country whose boss!

Are they playing actual rugby or that league nonsense?

I legitimately don't know how the sport works but I just keep going "OHHH SHIT" every time someone gets tackled or gets on a breakaway and hauls ass down the field. The New Zealand team crushed it.

Just looked it up. They are playing sevens - kinda like league, but with less people. Rugby Union is where it is at. Kiwis always crush it.

Getting 2nd place to the Kiwis is pretty damn impressive, and losing by 19 to 12 ain't half bad either. Congrats Canadian women's rugby 7's!

Just happened to turn on the tv exactly when Simone Biles was finishing the team event and got the gold.

Men's BMX was fucking wild but the judging was kinda sketchy. The French dude should've gotten at least 96 point for his second run.
