Ronnie should have gotten gold. in a boxing match if someone gives up they dont tie for a win, whoever gives up loses, just like RC did but somehow he still won?

Why should Renner only get one more shot because RC fell? They would just keep going until someone cleared it, so if Renner needed to clear the jump and RC threw in the towel Renner should of had unlimited chances at clearing the jump or save everyone the BS and just gave the metal to RR.

Totally bogus someone could crash, give up, and share the gold.

It's funny that they have to tie things up before Sportscenter because it's precisely when Sportscenter came on that I turned the channel to something else.

It's great to watch, that's about it. Nothing prestigious here...

C'mon Void, you know ESPN had to devote a few hours to defending their beloved RedSox juicers.

I don't get it. I fail at something then I quit and I somehow still win? Huh? Man, hope no kids were watching that. Gives them the wrong idea about life.

And RC had no problem with Ronnie winning. He was going over to congratulate him on the win when he got up. It isnt his fault the people in charge did what they did. It isnt like he was protesting for the gold.

So who is the actual number "1" , winner of the event in this case? Can you explain it to say, a little kid who wonders why they both "won" ? Hokey scoring system, at best.

I don't think anyone is debating that.
