It was a very nice experience, in a country I would have probably never visited for tourism. I have met some very welcoming people, of course we have had a lot of limitations and could not leave the h

I have been in the stadium before the Opening Ceremony. That was a very nice athmosphere, and something nice to experience for someone who has grown up in Europe. I have some pictures and videos, but

Countries are considered to be Francophone if, during the 19th Century, the aristocracy sent their children to French speaking schools. See also Poland, Russia, Brazil, Egypt etc.

Can’t say I like the broadcast format for these Games. Instead of airing full sessions like six years ago, TV5MONDE is kind of just skipping around to different sports. It’s nice because you can see a little bit of everything, but they aren’t airing all the finals. For instance, they didn’t show any judo medal matches today, and they only showed one table tennis final. It’s a real bummer for me, since I actually quite like these Games and look forward to them :(

:ROU took a loss to :COD in women’s basketball. I know it’s not their top squad, but still quite shocking.

Novac :ROU threw 84.75m in the men’s javelin, which smashed the Games Record set by Aukasz Grzeszczuk :POL in 2013 (78.62m). He was less than a meter off the Olympic standard :(

 

@rybak @Monzanator you guys should practice up on your French and enter in 2027 :p

Ghelber :ROU failed to break Wlodarczyk’s Games Record in the women’s hammer throw. She also came up just short of the Olympic standard.

      The news then is that she has not yet been arrested? I suppose Camila when she returns to Italy will have a very unwelcome visit from the Guardia di Finanza.

      Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.

      Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.

      Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig

      2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
