We like to help you out in case you're in a part with drought  

 

I live in Joinville. It rains so much there that people call the city Chuville (chuva = rain in Portuguese). I miss Rio so much.

Kazan and Budapest will host WCh again?  I don't know how Hungary keeps hosting a lot of different shit, must have an infinite sports budget...

so I consider 4 quotas for each relay? will everyone agree?

 

For each relay qualified, a nation may enter up to two relay-only athletes (up to a max of 12 athletes)

Quite happy for Hong Kong women for getting a quota.

 

Very sad for Canadian men for failing, finishing in 13th. Our men's team is so weak now.

 

"Our men's team is so weak" could be said about practically every Olympic sport for Canada

-Proud through in Butterfly

-Literal god Adam Peaty (WR) and Wilby through in Breaststroke

I think the men's athletics team is stronger than the women's. At least in terms of medal prospects.

Very weak level apart from Sjöstrom and MacNeil, this could be a huge chance for girls like Di Liddo and Wattel. Next year Ikee and Oleksiak will hopefully be back + Shkurdai will be 56 low by then hopefully.

 

Ikee I really doubt will swim anymore (at competitive level, at least)...

I don't know exactly what type of leukemia she got and how her treatment is going, but we can say she's lucky if she can have a decent life for the next few years...

returning to competitive sport is not impossible, but highly unlikely...

however, I wish her the best and I hope she can beat that fuc*in' disease...

Everyone who considers himself as a sports fan must get sick seeing that cheater winning and celebrating like that. What a shame! 10 of 10 points on the Efimova scale! 

Hopefully they'll send them into a lifetime ban in September, so that we don't have to witness such a disgrace in Tokyo.

Bla bla, salty white tears.

I completely support Horton’s actions in the podium. There are rare times when an athlete can just upset me in a way I hate, but Sun Yang is at the top of that list.

Really dude? You consider this as a matter of race?
