heywoodu 13,663 Posted November 9, 2018 #463 Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) Situation: Valdes Paris going for 140kg in her last attempt. Commentator: "To move her up to a guaranteed total bronze medal." And they don't even correct their mistake. In fact, after she made the lift and went to 250kg (2nd place, with two athletes still having to start their CJ): "You know what? She's guaranteed to end up on the podium." And no, they were not talking about a CJ medal, they had already said she guaranteed herself of at least CJ bronze earlier.

heywoodu 13,663 Posted November 9, 2018 #464 Share Posted November 9, 2018 First time I ever saw this Ao Hui, but she looks like a nice winner Almost kinda like the Fu Yuanhui of weightlifting, with her cheering and laughter and overall happiness If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,663 Posted November 10, 2018 #465 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Kashirina starts almost at the level she started with at the 2014 world champs, where everyone went full retard all week long and she destroyed the world records If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,663 Posted November 10, 2018 #466 Share Posted November 10, 2018 As always the women's super heavy weights look a bit....meh. I mean, here are these absolute beasts of well over 100kg and probably well over 125kg as well, yet they are barely lifting a bar with 4 weights on it, in some cases not even coming close to their own bodyweight...the body size/weight size ratio looks a bit sad If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Samoa or Nigeria should have somebody here, for example. Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
