On one hand it essentially avoids clashing with the various World Championships, but on the other hand, I imagine many athletes (especially in athletics) in non-Olympic qualifying sports will skip the games.

 

Many american/canadian you mean. 

 

And they already do that, so... 

 

The only downside I see from this decision is that we'll have weaker marks in athletics/swimming (cuz no one would peak in november).

The opening ceremony has not even taken place yet and I already can't stand the official song when it plays before and after competitions on TV.

I like the song, but the intros and outros are the worst of any games in 2-3 years

@intoronto does CBC only show that one channel, or is there away to see other streams, replays, etc.

I think its one channel

This will be a disaster for artistic gymnastics. The World Championships usually happen in late October, so there's no way any country would send their best gymnasts for the Pan Ams.

They like to publish them really late in the night the day before for some reason

So if your unable to watch the 2019 Pan American Games live, you’ve got a few options.

Obviously you should follow Totallympics Media for our event summaries and other stories.

The following are also running live blogs:

Totallympics Media (highly recommend)

Olympic Channel

 

So, with that, everyone should be able to follow the games in some way. Enjoy the Games!

I'm actually impressed by most venues I've seen so far. The Artistic Skating venue is probably the best one ever at the Pan American Games. Also nice broadcast/images.

 

 

My thoughts exactly, it looked similar to an ice rink. Love it

Apparently less then 100 people were in the seats for the Canada v Argentina game (Mind you it was cold). Hoping this picksup
