That’s about all I have left to look forward to this year. However, it’s in a China, so my hopes are low. It will take place as expected. The city was shut down for tourists so that it can host the games. Anyhow OCA has given green signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's in China, my hopes would be significantly higher than basically anywhere else in the world.

Yes, I totally agree with you. But I hope that in late July things will get sth close to normal in my job, and that means I will have to work twice as hard as usually (beacuse of all the delays and interruptions which are happening now) and I think I will not have time for discussing on totallympics.com ;-) Now I have more free time.

What's that 'Dutch' doing there in the name of a Belgian rowing club?

Until then, maybe we could simulate an all-time greats Olympics? For example - Usain Bolt v Jesse Owens v Carl Lewis in the men's 100m? George Foreman v Teofilio Stevenso, Felix Savon or Joe Frazier in heavyweight boxing? Mark Spitz v Micheal Phelps in swimming?
