Hey fistball experts (yeah, sure, why not), what's the point of the parallel lines around the net ?

I told myself I wouldn’t be caught dead watching dragon boat, but then @Gianlu33 told me about ‘s medal chances, and well….

 

Let’s forget about this as soon as today’s over though

From the strong protests I saw during Italy-Chile, it should be the line of service

Like  in football, it seems that  are not very good at Dragon Board racing.  Just been beaten by a random selection of European canoeing nations.   Myanmar up next!

In the tug-of-war, much like in 1940,  put up a fight as much as they could, but capitulated shockingly fast against . Too bad, after already being pulled over by a bunch of small Taiwanese guys, this is certainly done.

The thing that bothers me a little about these World Games is the very long breaks between events during the same session, which, incidentally, make no sense whatsoever

Watching floorball now,  Fitzi with one of the goals of the tournament to tie the game up at 2-2  after  took an early 2-0 lead

This manikin carry with fins...basically that is a freestyle race with a weight attached to your legs, they're not really swimming in an entirely different way. One would imagine a lot of the, say, semi-finalists in the 100m freestyle in the Singapore world championships would have a serious medal chance here, no?

Ah,  Brian Timmers is indeed the brother of  Rob Timmermans in the karate

 

Too bad Brian didn't make the semis.

Meanwhile, in korfball,  lost against , and their only chance for a medal is gone I think
