Watch why the internet exploded over USA women's rugby Olympic bronze win in last-second play

usa women's rugby celebrating

USA women's rugby won the bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics — the first-ever podium for the U.S. in rugby — in what might be the most dramatic fashion imaginable. The team won on a wild, last-second, full-field run to clinch the victory.

It's hard to overstate how freaking cool the play was. I'm no rugby expert but it was basically the sport's version of a Hail Mary completion to win the game in football. Well, that combined with a powerful run right up the gut. The U.S.'s Spiff Sedrick just straight-up bulldozed through an entire team.

The win marked a huge upset over Australia and a bronze for one of the Olympics' online stars, Ilona Maher. Sports fans in the U.S. were pumped up over the huge win, even as the women's gymnastics competed to take home the gold at the same time.

What an amazing moment, and the kind of thing that makes the Olympics so great. With just a few seconds on the game clock, the U.S. went from so close, to making history.

Afterward, "Daylight Saving Time" becomes the norm for about eight months (And yes, it's called "Daylight Saving" not "Daylight Savings." I don't make the rules). Then, in the fall, the opposite happens. Our clocks set themselves back an hour, and we wake up refreshed, if a little uneasy.  Mild chaos ensues at both annual clock changes. What feels like an abrupt and drastic lengthening or shortening of the day causes time itself to seem fictional. Babies and dogs demand that their old sleep and feeding habits remain unchanged. And more consequential effects — for better or worse — may be involved as well (more on which in a minute). Changing our clocks is an all-out attack on our perception of time as an immutable law of ...
