I am pretty dang sure that if we were offered seven gold medals coming in every single one of us would have taken it without a second thought. Best Canadian performance at the summer games ever, exclu

Our Women's Team Pursuit expectedly loses to GB who set another WR, we battle NZ for bronze

 

They looked pretty good in their race (especially compared to yesterday).  With the Aussies out, Canada is the favourite for bronze.  Hope they perform this afternoon.  :fingers:

Theisen-Eaton needed a huge result in long jump.  Didn't get it.  Good, but not great.  Still, 'only' 90 points off the podium now.  A medal is still very possible, but probably only bronze.

Ennis is too solid for Brianne to catch her, Thiam is a poor 800m runner but her Javelin will keep her out of range, she's fighting with KJT who has a poor JT, Jones is also ahead but has both a poor JT and 800m

Yeah, pretty much.  If Brianne can finish ahead of KJT and Jones in javelin she'll be in a good position for bronze because her 800m is very strong and you can get a lot of points there.  Thiam and Ennis-Hill would both basically have to not get a mark in javelin for her to get the gold.  Another worry is Schafer in 6th, just behind Brianne.  But her 800m is much weaker.

Well, the good news for diving is that Abel wasn't as good as she can be today and still finished 3rd by a large margin.  If she's clean tomorrow a medal will be attainable, maybe gold if the Chinese screw up.  Also, Ware makes the final as well.

      summary   Brignone = top star of the championships     rest of the team = why wasting money bringing them to the championships and expose them to the world, showing their total lack of talent?

      Yep. Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

      Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
