Id score day 1 as a disappointment. 

 

Volleyball team flopping, our second beach volleyball team losing a close match, Michael Woods missing out on a medal etc.

I wouldn't say disappointment.  Yeah, Woods was a medal contender but there's only three medals and half a dozen contenders.  5th ain't bad.  

 

Yes, the second beach volleyball team actually looked kind of bad in the last set tonight, but the actual medal favourites looked dominant in their match.

 

Volleyball was a heartbreaker.  Taking a 2-0 lead, and actually leading in the 3rd set.  Then they completely fell apart.  They needed that win to position themselves well for the quarters.  

 

But, a huge win in softball over Australia pretty much guarantees Canada will play for a medal, very likely gold/silver (and even if it is bronze, they look much better than the three possible adversaries).  

 

Soccer wasn't impressive, but they got the job done.  They'll move on.  

 

Rowing was generally successful.  W8 looked very good, almost going directly to the final.  I'd say they're in the hunt for a medal now.

 

Swimming transpired pretty much as expected, which is good.  Exception being Pickrem opting out of the 400 IM which she probably wasn't going to medal in anyway (though who knows with so few entries).  

 

Tomorrow Swimming relay and diving offer hope for medals.  Some Rowing semis.  If Canada wins in softball it'll guarantee a medal.

Swimming has me worried. Every individual swim was slower than trials

Looking forward to two very likely medals today (fingers crossed), and a huge showdown between Japan and Canada for a shot at the gold in softball. Also excited to see the debut of skateboarding (potential outside shot at a medal?) and surfing. 

 

As an aside, watching the CBC's daytime show right now and find Perdita Felicien to be very obnoxious. Talking about herself at every opportunity she gets.

Hopefully she realizes. It's her first time hosting such a big show like this

    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
    • On the other hand Errani's serve doesn't make Paolini's task any easier... But Paolini is in a such good shape here, though, that I hope she wins her first title in the old Fed Cup. For Errani, it will be 4: 2009, 2010, 2013. So far, Roberta Vinci has 4 titles with Italy.
