We here at Sounder at Heart are giving you a daily Olympic open thread. And since we are a soccer site, it naturally focuses on soccer. Well today is a rest day for the soccer tournament as the group stage came to an end with the Women on Tuesday and the Men on Wednesday, thus today we will have a shorter offering for you.
