Yeah for sure, Americans are just clamoring to see the medal ceremony for other countries. If only the Ethiopian feed showed Ryan Crousers medal ceremony we would be a bigger sport than Football and Cricket combined.
You missed the point. The whole coverage is biased. I want to see the athletes from other countries, not just underperforming Americans making excuses.
you're expecting WAYYY too much out of NBC/American coverage. it makes 0 sense as to why you're watching the American coverage if you feel this way

Paulino looked amazing. She could win by a full second. Would have been a great race with Sydney.

I haven't seen a single award ceremony and now they show one because Lyles is crying during it? F-ing American coverage is so biased...no wonder no one believes their news programs, it's all fake.
NBC is an American network. If you watch BBC, they also cover British athletes more extensively.
I'm in Switzerland and they cover all german-speaking athletes no matter the placing.

Americans are dying to see 10 minutes of suspenseful prep for every sprint heat and semi. Another 5 minutes of slow-mo replay.
NOT. Nobody wants to suffer through one or two weeks of this. I get maybe you do, but not Americans in general.24 -

They haven't show ANY except this one. Selective journalism
there's only been two other American golds & they weren't as notable/surprising as Lyles gold. Lyles emotional reaction likely added to them showing it.
Johnson-Thompson's win was an upset and a great story too, coming back from a couple years injury to regain her title. Did you even know her back story?

WTF!!! Who in the hell reacts to the gun at 0.222 for a sprint?
I noticed she didn't have all those pre race antics that she usually does and zero antics after the race.
She ate a lot of humble pie today in the semi-final. Hopefully she gets her s*** together for the final later today. Hopefully she gets her s*** together for the final later today.
Literally what are you talking about. She was the third fastest qualifier in the field.
Obviously someone didn't watch the actual race. She was Dead F'ing last out of the blocks, like she was not paying attention.

Would be particularly impressive since Miller-Uibo didn’t make it out of the heats

again, we're talking about an American feed. you're expecting WAY too much out of NBC by even mentioning a non-American athlete right now, lol.
Her win was an upset & a great story, I followed it and was very proud of her gold!
