vinipereira 3,054 Posted October 23, 2023 #1081 Share Posted October 23, 2023 We used to joke about Brazil at the Olympics calling it "Bronzil" given the high number of bronze medals we won compared to the others. Now at the Pan American Games maybe we should change to "Pratil" because the number of silver (prata) medals have been far too much. Spoiler Maybe one day we'll finally be "Ouril"... konig and Laraja 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The organization decided to prolong the gap between the events, giving some time to make the processes in a good way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,479 Posted October 23, 2023 #1087 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I find it really hard to follow the all-around competition when I’m even the slightest bit tired. There’s just too much going on in that event. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

She's visibly tired, I'm glad they didn't put Rebeca in AA, it could have been a disaster. Anyway, while this was happening, Brazil won a bronze medal in Diving, which is great since I thought we would leave empty-handed in this sport hoversaBR and mrv86 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
