Ad skateboarding: yeah, those young 10 yo girls competing against 30 yo is strange, but as they're the best it wouldn't be fair to keep tchem out of competition

On the one hand, yes you're right. If they're the best they should have oportunity to prove that. But the question is are they should be the best? Is it normal that kids had to train like pro athletes? Let the kid to be a kid, not a little grown-up.

Okay, so SAFP, DAS & Ta Lou for medals most likely. Thompson looked pedestrian so far.

I always thought Dafne Schippers looked very much like Anky van Grunsven. Maybe it's the Dutch look?

I find it intriguing how we went from casual race walking discussions to talking about sports pedophilia in less than a day.

Natural order of things I’d say . 

Or better yet people calling each other’s countries out, to doping, to race walking, to whatever was happening this morning, to the Mixed Relay, to pedophilla

Well, skateboarding training is kinda different I suppose. It's not going 100kg deadlift, but trying new tricks, trying new tricks, trying new tricks

He only mentioned he would like teams to have a fixed order (2 men, 2 women, or 2 women, 2 men). This would certainly help understand who is ahead with real medal chances. The way this event is organized nowadays, potential viewers at home will be at loss. We are fans of sports and most of us consider this event a joke the way it is. Guess how casual viewers will feel...

Well I like the idea of teams being able to mix up their strategies. One day, a different strategy will work.

I just surprised the forum hasn’t crashed during these championships yet 

Also, no users' reports in 176 pages. Amazing!
