Where would you cycling buffs place the OG road event in the overall ranking of cycling races? I followed cycling quite a bit back in the 80s (guess why) and have followed from afar since. Since the OGs is a one day event it's not fair to compare it to the tours, where does it rank in importance to cycling cognoscenti and to the teams/riders themselves?

Just seems ironic that after her NCAA career and third Olympics, it comes up with two out in the 7th and tying batter at the plate.

I suspect we'll win the rest, then face Sweden again and probably lose again. We have too much speed, technical ability and game management to be an underdog to anyone else. The Swedes simply looked brilliant.
Now, will they begin to believe their own press clippings and fall to someone else? Possible, not probable.

The USA won the WWC in 2019, and this 0-3 loss indicates the trend is going to continue.

USA women's soccer team is an aging group. Capable of bouncing back but obviously no sure bet.

Tokyo Olympics - It's On
Here's a brilliant idea for a thread - celebrating the Olympics that HAVE started.
In women's soccer news, the heavily favored USA women were roundly defeated by Sweden 3-0.
I'm a huge fan of the team, but even I say this is a good start - any complacency we may have harbored from our world dominance is now completely gone. That's good for women's world soccer and for the USA team. Can't wait to see what happens next. We have subs on the bench that would be stars elsewhere.Tags: None
