Something I don't understand about the Olympics: In some sports, both losing semifinalists get bronze medals.

Posted by David (aka David) Aug 5 '21, 16:09

In other sports (like women's soccer), they play so that one team can win.

I say it should work like most consolation brackets. Since it doesn't matter, just give both teams a medal.

It's mostly the combat sports that do that. -- nm - Reagen Aug 5, 16:12 1
- Yup. You just got your clock cleaned. Now go out there and do it again to see if you get a medal. -- nm - Baron of the Rings Aug 5, 16:23
