Honestly, I don't know the rules.  But it was intentional, so in my mind illegal.  IIAF also set a precedent yesterday with the Americans.  It'll look like favouritism if they reject the appeal, which I'm not sure they're concerned about.

Brooke not doing too well in golf so far.

CBC is showing the 1996 4x100.  I remember watching it live.  What a call.  "Donovan Bailey is POURING IT ON!"  Great race.

Yeah, she's not doing terrible, I just mean she's not on fire yet like yesterday.  But maybe the last 9 is her thing.  Wasn't trying to complain.

Totally missed that Canada's women K4 will also go to the final tomorrow.

We have just heard back on the protest... #bronze for @EvanDunfee. We expect a counter protest from the Japanese.
