Day 6 - It's a Log Jam for Gold!

The race for gold is tightening up with John and Scott right on the Pool Queen's heels. Scott, in particular, had a great day with some remarkable efforts on the Greco-Roman Wrestling mat.

Alli also put in a notable performance in G-R Wresting winning the first complete sport with 3 Golds and a Bronze.

The battle for the Biggest Disappointment award (4th place) is a beauty with just 4 points separating 5 participants. Spoiler Alert: we're collecting some pretty nice McDonald's glasses for 4th place finisher.

The battle for the basement is officially over. Congrats, Izzy, you suck the most by far. We'll let you know closer to the end of the competition what your "award" will be.

The second-to-last contest is raging nicely among those who felt it was unpatriotic to pick non-Canadians. With no medals after 6 days, the Canadian team has left Mr. Ripper, The Bells, and Snow Axe with some very salty faces. Cheer up guys, we have 14 rowing events being awarded in the next 3 days. Canada just has to win one of those 42 medals.

Emma, 123
John, 121
Scott, 117

Megan M., 101
