Postmodern Pentathlon Cuts Dynamos Lead

Da Nang Dynamos had another poor day as they lost half of their previous lead over favored Postmodern Pentathlon.  Postmodern Pentathlon took eight medals Tuesday to the Dynamos' four, and now trails by only 20 points with both USA basketball teams still alive in the medal rounds.  Spain's Ona Carbonell and Andrea Fuentes won Postmodern's biggest medal of the day, the 12.5-point silver in synchronized swimming.  In every still photo of synchronized swimming ever, the athletes look like murderers.  Not gun murderers, stabbing murderers.

Farther down in the standings, a couple of teams had big days Tuesday to move into a tie for third place.  Paragons scored 47.1 points and was led by Russia's 25 point synchronized swimming gold medal in women's duets.  Chariots of Fire got a league-high 61.2 points, including the day's other 25-point gold medal in men's triathlon.
