Peacock doesnt let you view the matches on delay? The only replays I currently see on the app is for yesterday and Monday.
I don't think you can watch on delay. Some of the replays have multiple matches per video so not always easy to find if you are looking for one particular match. Looks like they have 3 replays from today's matches but I don't see any medals matches posted yet.
The Gold medal matches are being shown for the first time on TV right now, so perhaps they wait to post those until after the first TV broadcast is over to not cut down their TV audience?
Sorry, I got called away today, but I should be able to stoke the fire tomorrow!
So let me guess: No live coverage tomorrow morning unless I buy peacock again?

Good call. Right after Sarah's finals match ended on the broadcast the replay was posted.
If you look at the third round on the bottom bracket at 57 kg, there is a possibility of some breakage.
So cool Drew is her training partner!
Sarah Hildebrandt Exclusive Interview After Winning Olympic Gold
Yes. Start the match then put on pause. Then un pause and it continues. Or watch the next day.
Sorry........I know it's the rule, but it's a foolish rule. In the end, I'm glad Sarah had to wrestle in the gold medal match and won (I think it makes it more meaningful for her), but in my mind whoever advanced to the gold medal match, and then can't go because she missed weight, was late for weigh ins, or was injured, should have claimed the silver medal. IMO just more bizarre rules that make international wrestling, well just hard to understand.
Top Three Threats to Zain Retherford at the Olympic Games
Do you have xfinity? If so check and see if you cam get one through them. We got a Peacock subscription free as a thank you for canceling our cable.
Mine, too! Such an open hearted, fun-loving, grounded soul talking about just “another Wednesday.” Cool backstory on post-Tokyo and nearly hanging them up, only to start the climb again, this time reaching the summit. Thank God she was made to wrestle. It erases the asterisk and any haunting doubt. I’ll watch that interview anytime I need a breath of fresh air, or just want to smile!
How many more years will she compete? I wish we would start a woman’s team and hire Sarah and her brother as coaches!
Open up your wallet and make it happen! Donations are doubled for the next 4 days. 😉
I wish so too. I also wish I could donate an absurd amount of money so that it could be doubled.
Even with the doubling and if I put my entire annual salary in, I doubt I move the needle on starting a new program. But I can dream.
I do think we would need another coach for upper weights.
RBY has a brutal cut, but a 4 hour weigh-in should allow him time to hydrate and eat. If he can recover he will make the Semi's and that's the one I'm looking forward to tomorrow. He should have about 12 hours to recover before meeting Spencer? so I like his chances and I'm expecting him to win but won't be surprised if he doesn't. He walks around at 145 during the college season so 57kg is not easy for him.
Hi, I’m Bobby Telford from Iowa. 😉
This was a great interview of Sarah. I will hand it to Pyles. He did a great job of framing some questions for Sarah that went beyond the typical post-match interviews we see.
Sarah talked about being informed (she didn't state by whom) that she had won the gold by virtue of Phogat missing weight. She talked about "crying and hugging" when she was told she had won the gold, then about an hour later being told she was still going to have to wrestle. What an emotional rollercoaster! I can't imagine.
Sarah talked about how after Tokyo she was dead set on retiring, only to later change her mind. She gave huge props to her brother, Drew, for the pivotal role he has played in her wrestling career. She also mentioned how, after Tokyo, she changed her mindset toward wrestling and life. It sounds like she took the pressure off herself and allowed herself to have a more fulfilling life outside of wrestling.
It seems to be a common theme among wrestlers who have competed at the highest levels for years-on-end that they have to find a proper balance between wrestling and the other areas of their life or they lose their enjoyment for the sport. If they don't, HEW hits and they retire out of the sport, or worst case scenario, stick with the sport for several more years while not enjoying it. Not only did Sarah talk about this, but Zain has also done so in recent interviews.
The mental aspect is where I see the genius of Cael's coaching philosophy. His wrestlers generally seem to wrestle relaxed and free. Wrestling is far too hard a sport to compete in, especially at the highest levels, if you can't find the enjoyment in it.
Congratulations to Sarah on her Olympic gold and for allowing us fans to not only enjoy her wrestling, but also her infectious personality!

Could you imagine if the Cuba girl would have won after already losing. The rule is screwed up. Sara should have gotten a forfeit.
Cry baby JB out there saying the girl was India deserves a medal is crazy too. It’s a tough call. I can kind of see both sides of it. If she would have went completely bald she would have made weight.

I see both sides as well for Vinesh. But I believe the key is she was disqualified, rather than forced to forefit the medal match. Seems severe for missing weight, but those are the rules.
