Thankfully, most problems are being solved quickly - the australian chef de mission changed the tone today and said everything should be ready by tomorrow in their building (the one that have faced most problems). I expect the same for other rooms that have presented problems.

 

And of course our national press are already taking advantage of this situations for some "loved" sensationalist news:

How come is everyone facing this issues in the Olympic Village? Is this common every olympics?

 

I mean, after so many years to prepare the accommodations, how can it be that the apartments aren't ready?? :thumbdown:

well, I don't know what is reason in this case (I don't think it is "bad" conditions), but for tennis players this is not strange at all. For London our tennis players lived in house close to tennis courts.

I wonder who our team's neighbours are then... if slovaks are with czechs, maybe our "dear brothers" spanish are in our building? :p

 

Nope, that will be... France (I applaud the trolling atempt by our brazilians hosts)

 

Spoiler

At, least, our athletes shouldn't be too bothered with victory ceremonies from our new roomates :p

    • meanwhile the 2 next best Baseball Leagues in the World have also reached the Final Series   in , the 2024 Japan Series will feature the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks (back to business after the awful 2023 season), winner of the Pacific League, and the surprising Yokohama DeNA Bay Stars, winners of the Central League after an amazing series against the heavily favoured Tokyo Giants   the Japan Series (best-of-7 games, 2-3-2 format) will start next Saturday, October 26th in Yokohama @ 6.30 p.m. local time     in  South Korea, instead, the 2024 Korean Series will see the KIA Tigers from Gwangju facing the Samsung Lions from Daegu   the series is a best-of-7 matchup, but with an unusual 2-2-3 format, with the best seeded teams (KIA in this case) hosting not only 4, but 5 of the potential 7 games    game #1 was scheduled for earlier, Today, but it was suspended in the top of the 6th inning (Samsung leading 1-0, runners on 1st & 2nd, 0 out) due to heavy rain   it should resume Tomorrow @ 4 p.m. local time (before game #2 @ 6.30 p.m. local time), but the weather forecast is awful also for Tomorrow and there's a good chance that there won't be any ball played all day long
    • I think you forgot a couple of  emojis 
    • my 2 cents...    Beatrice Chebet (women's Track)  Yaroslava Mahuchick (women's Field)  Rai Benjamin (men's Track)  Mondo Duplantis (men's Field)   honorable mention,  Militiadis Tentoglu (men's Field)
    • It`s all the more strange that Italy qualified two womens for Paris, even though this discipline has been in a great crisis in our country for many years - since we stopped naturalizing Chinese some 20 years ago.
    • Wasn´t he the guy who dated Natalia Oreiro ?
    • 2 medals is the historic success of Table Tennis.     Barbora Balážová Gold and Tatiana Kukuľková bronze in W Doubles.   Funny (or not so-funny) enough... both missed Paris 2024 by a few... Balážová ended first non-qualified and Kukuľková 4th under the line... Still can not believe we failed to qualify at least one female to the Games, despite our womens team was still in qualifying position one year before Paris as 2022 WCh quarterfinalists ...   All this Olympic qualification really sucked... especially for us
    • Next month, in the Challenger 100 in Montevideo , retired professional football player Diego Forlan will make his circuit debut in the doubles draw alongside argentinian  Federico Coria
    • I expected Vonn to return in a speed event, but guess she wants to test herself first on a slower GS. Though at 40 i think she won't be doing many GSs and concentrate on the DH & SG. And hopefully she does that, because a full World Cup season should be out of her aim.   As for Hirscher, he must really be scared of Odermatt breaking his records
