Welcome back
A welcome is something you'll never need from anybody when you're home, in your own neighborhood, especially not from someone that isn't even from your neighborhood.
The outsiders were always the first ones to try to welcome back the guy to his own home and neighborhood for some reason. The people that were also from the neighborhood originally weren't overly curious or interested in what the guy was doing, they also weren't the ones always trying to change the neighborhood, that was mostly outsiders or newcomers doing that. Most people originally from there liked things the way they always had been, without needing them to change.

Self played
Played by yourself.
The bubbly girl tried to slowly drive so many people crazy that her own mental health ended up becoming questionable. She was self played, and had nobody left to play but herself.

Olympics
Thank god they are over, people watching/playing sports will now have about 2 weeks of no major sporting events/competitions, and they will get to actually enjoy summer for being summer. For the people watching/playing the NBA Finals past mid July with the Olympics starting the same week, it really was getting silly. The NBA Finals ended over a month before that just a few years ago, and they never needed to go further than mid June. It was nice to have a full summer of no major sporting events/finals/playoffs, just casual regular season baseball games.
It didn't help the Olympics that they came right after the NBA Finals. People like to get a little summer in to enjoy it without thinking about what sporting event/competition is next, since that starts to get silly at a certain point. Not everybody wants a summer filled with competition after competition, it gets dull and silly at the same time.

Edge
Not getting a few medals that were once reliable is only a surface matter. Really Amercia losing it's edge is worse, as difficult as it is to keep a rhythm when you haven't practiced/trained/prepared much.

Olympics
Why does it matter whether someone is a conservative tennis player or a liberal soccer player if they are trying to win a medal and not a vote?
The Olympics is not an election or a political rally, so what does politics have to do with any of it?

Stunning
Something that, if you didn't already see it coming, would actually blow your mind. Something you do see coming is never stunning, because even it had been an otherwise mind blowing action, which is a rare exception to most actions, rather than as common as annoying sports announcers make them sound, you still would have known your mind was going to be blown before it was blown, which would have eliminated any stun effect of the action. For example, a team that most people think would win a game isn't stunning, since no win is guaranteed, and there are times a team isn't playing anywhere near one hundred percent, the reasons (not excuses, but legitimate reasons) being endless, and they don't do well. It happens all the time, even in the playoffs or games some are more desperate to win than they already usually are due to the game being what they think of as urgent or important. In reality anything can happen, so something would actually have to be rare to really be stunning, since stunning is as overused a word as awesome. Nowadays people describe people or things that are not awesome at all, with nothing awesome about them, as awesome. People do the same thing with the word stunning, they describe the most plain, ordinary (and dull) things and people as stunning.
The bubbly girl always described herself and her own actions as stunning, as a defense mechanism, but she was actually a plain girl that didn't do a whole lot that was particularly stunning or even interesting. She was never really as angry, spirited, or tough as she thought she was, since she hadn't really been through enough real pain or adversity as a kid, and thought that rejection was the most painful thing that could happen to somebody.

Emasculated
As masculine as some females have gotten, soon you will have females claiming that if guys are going to talk about people emasculating them, I'm going to talk about people emasculating me (though society doesn't really try to make guys less feminine or females less masculine, even if they have a hard time processing it).
