You can still vote in Poll #13.

But here comes Poll #14 already.

 

These are olympic champions in certain events.

Imagine that all these champions are on the top of their game at the very same moment in time.

Who would have won gold?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_swimming_(women)#100_metres_butterfly

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_water_polo_(women)

 

As I wrote here earlier, I think the best solution for the team sports (like women's water polo), for the purpose of these polls, will be that we won't compare two or more gold medal olympic teams from one NOC with each other.

Instead, we can think which NOC which has previously won at least one gold in certain team sport event should win in our imaginary games.

And that means we could think of e.g. USA women's water polo team for our imaginary games as a team of all the best athletes from all their gold medal teams altogether.

 

Each event has an option "I WILL PASS THIS EVENT" for those who want to take part in the polls but don't want to vote in every event.

#TeamMoura-heywoodu

Swimming, men's 100m breaststroke...here I'm heavily biased, but I voted for :ITA Domenico Fioravanti because he was the first man in the long history of swimming to double up the 100m and 200m breaststroke and because hadn't he been stopped by the really strict Italian rules on the heart's troubles, he would have surely won a lot more global medals...he was really a pleasure to watch, also from a stylish point of view...his success will be always be underestimated...

 

Swimming, women's 100m Fly...my pick is :GDR Kristin Otto, for the same reason of the previous poll she was involved in...

 

Swimming, men's 10km...here's is a no brainer...the way :GER Florian Wellbrock dominated the Tokyo race and many more global events are there to show why he's by far the best man ever in this game...

 

Diving, men's Platform...even here, the choice is quite obvious...with all respect for Greg Louganis, Dmitri Sautin and all the Chinese champions, :ITA Klaus Dibiasi is and will be still for quite a long time the best diver in the history, especially in this discipline...

 

Women's Waterpolo...well, I don't think the :USA USA would eventually have any rival in this poll...

SPOILERS:

 

Poll #15 this weekend will be:

 

ATHLETICS - Women's High Jump

ATHLETICS - Women's 20km Race Walk

TAEKWONDO - Women's Heavyweight +67kg

TENNIS - Mixed Doubles

and Men's RUGBY SEVENS clash for 2nd and 3rd place - :GBR vs :NZL

because according to our rules :FIJ as the one and only olympic champions in this event have their imaginary gold secured :-)

 

Stay tuned!

    • How wonderful!   I met the national rowing (and beach rowing) coach of EST/LTU/LAT on the way to ice hockey one day, who's Canadian by the way. I also flew home on the same flight as JC Schoonmaker's mom and friends, so we chatted for a bit.
    • Yea I only used transit besides this Uber / bus to the airport and back. All the venues were at the end of the line, so it allowed you to speak with other fans/volunteers etc. I even met Corrine Stoddard's mom after the first session of short track on the way back, and told her to remember our conversation if she won a medal later in the Olympics. We know how that ended up... 
    • I used public transit the entire time I was in Milan.   My first day was a doozy, because I had to two flights to reach Malpensa, and then the train into town was delayed, and then I got confused a station and boarded a tram instead of the metro, proceeded to travel in the wrong direction, got off, walked back to the station, found the metro, got off a station early, walked around a kilometer to my hotel, and checked in.   My colleagues mostly took cabs upon arrival, but I deduced to take the frugal approach. That said, I was a true public transit professional by the time I left Milan.   I actually enjoyed my rides to and from venues, because I'd just chat up fans and volunteers from different countries. It helped me learn more about the city too.   
    • It's the olympics, sleep is for the weak!    The first day i got there i was on a 12 hour flight from l.a to rome (flight that left mid day), lay over, another flight to milan, uber to hotel, then right away to speed skating (1500m men), then after uber to hockey venue for women's gold final, then after the celebrations uber to the hotel, i ended up being awake about 36 hours that day, the next morning i thought to go sightseeing in the center of milan, but ended up sleeping until like 2pm..... and had speed skating/short track that night 
    • I tried to get onto the metro multiple times and gave up    I had just arrived the day of from Bangkok (12 hr flight) and was just exhausted and wanted to sleep 
    • Plus, you missed out on a potential metro ride with me, which is quite priceless in my opinion 
    • My hotel was very close to Rho so was easy to get there, but it was so far from the hockey venue that after the women's gold medal match it was so expensive to get back, and also the next day after the usa slovakia semis it took forever, the asshole driver took the city and not the freeway  
    • Uber cost me $224 CAD to get back to the hotel from the OC. It basically prevented me from buying tickets to a speed skating session 
    • Romania's national team coach, Mircea Lucescu, has died half an hour ago He was in hospital since March 30th, just before the friendly match against Slovakia. Unbelievable how the life can have such turns...in March 26th he was in Istanbul playing the WC qualifying play-off vs Turkiye and now he died.    Thank you very much for every moments you bring us in your huge career (he's on 3rd place in a most trophies won in career, after Ferguson and Guardiola) and may your soul rest in peace, Mr. Lucescu.
