on the surface it looks good. When I dove into it, it is not very good

Here is my analysis

Tae Kwan do - 1 gold 1 silver, I would rate this as excellent

Weightlifting - 1 gold I would rate this as very good, but would like to see more than one medal in a sport that is supposed to be one of our strengths

Wrestling- one silver and one bronze, at first glance, I would rate this as a slight disappointment, but then after I look at the details, I see that both of our medalists got pinned. That to me is very disappointing. When is the last time you saw a Russian or American get pinned?
