Athletics at the Summer Olympic Games 2016


Recommended Posts

I've never seen Schippers that mad :p

 

"I don't want to come up with excuses but I had some physical problems in the past days." Oh come on Dafne :facepalm:

If you look at the results of german athletes in Rio, then you have to believe that there is a god and that he/she is actually evil, a kid or mentally retarded:

R. Harting out in qualification, Schwanitz only 6th -> Gold for Reitz, Gold for C. Harting, our mens football team reaches the semifinal -> Vogel only 6th, Kerber loses the final, Holzdeppe out in qualification

I cant wait to see what will be next, but my guess is that one of the following things will happen tomorrow:

Gold for Seitz in womens uneven bars

A medal for Gierisch in womens triple jump

Gold for Link or Brodmeier in mens 50 m rifle 3 positions

Our womens table tennis team beats Japan

Heil/Plößel overtake Burling/Tuke in mens 49er

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

What a night of athletics.... now wait for an epic heptathlon duel !! :bounce:

Whatever happens, the slight disappointment about Schippers (though obviously the 200m is her main event) would be very much annihilated if Thiam takes the gold here :d

I am hoping so, even though I really like Jess Ennis-Hill, I just would love to see a new rivalry develop in the next years to come and to really push the event forward again. Thiam can help with that by winning here :)

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
