Piss.

Edit: Piss. No wonder the Swede toss his bronze in Wrestling. First, questionable last point judged to the US. Secondly, timing was odd...no time left after the point scored? Third, the BS rule that last point scored wins the period (if tied), especially in the third and deciding period.

Wow, what a way to lose. With 4 seconds left. What a stupid rule that it was 1-1 in the 3rd but bc the American got the last point she won.

You'd think in the deciding match they'd let the wrestlers wrestle it out in sudden death if it remained tied at the end of the 2 minutes.

We're talking about an extra minute or so.

Always sucks to lose to the Americans.

Americans or not, just an idiotic rule.

Gotta change that one. Is this soccer or even Oilers hockey? Let's settle it the right way............

So either the Danes Quad rowing team are triplets and a brother, or they are all clones.

I call Shenanigans! Shenanigans!!!

Ok that really sucks. First the crap in wrestling and then losing at the very end in the women's 8's to finish in 4th. Ugh.

Another look at that Youtube.

Clearly you can see where his shot lands...when the judge goes to put the marker down, its no where near where it landed, the correct divot is blocked by the foot.

What was marked was definately a prior divot..you can see that divot already there when you watch it again.
