          Yah, helluva free kick, but a dumb penalty to set it up.

                  That's new for this year. First time since 1984 actually. They actually revamped boxing, making it closer to "Pro" fights vs the convoluted scoring systems used in the last 3 Olympics. So far it's much better. No mystery to the scoring.

                      OTOH, all they needed was a draw and they were resting some people and getting Rapinoe into the flow, so an imperfect effort is understandable even if undesirable.

                      Noticed that too, and I found it odd. Given the notoriety around concussions and the fact that boxing is the only "legitimate" sport in which the object is to concuss your opponent, it seems strange to remove a piece of gear that should make concussions less likely, which would emphasize the non-knockout aspects of the sport.

                        The US Women's game gave me a chuckle. I don't hate them, but I don't like them much either.

                            I've always had a love-hate thing for the USWNT but their actions in their CBA negotiations soured things.

                              Interesting.

                              And thanks for the scoring note, too- it was nice to see the round scores live.
