What a pitty that Baboloki Thebe got injured. Botswana would easily win a medal then

Botswana ran out of gas, pity.

 

 

Still, if Eritrea, Uganda or Djibouti win a medal tomorrow we break the record for most NOCs with medal in a single games.

Though I like american football, it would be terrible in the Olympics. Would make the chinese table tennis medals seem unsecure

Maotoanong, why did you have to give absolutely everything to stay with Merritt?

There is no way the IOC approves American Football... it doesn't meet the requirements

obviously... was a joke, i dont think there is more then a few players that were born elsewhere, wouldn't even be possible since the season will start few weeks later and it's the time for camps.However i think next time we will see more NFL players trying rugby like Nate Ebner did this year (and he was so dirty at times thinking that he is in the nfl)

Even the slow races are suspicious?

It was 16 seconds slower than his PB. That's quite a bit in a 1500m!

I read this explanation very often, but it doesnt make any sense. If you can outkick a 3:26 runner like Kiprop and the most suspicious 1500 m runner ever (Makhloufi), then you are suspicious as hell. If someone would suddenly outkick Farah, then everyone should be suspicious and Kiprop is about as dominant as Farah. I think he has also been part of the NOP (just like Farah), so there really isnt much more to say about him.

USA: Swimming + Athletics = 29 gold medals  to be ahead in the medal table is necessary for all countries to raise the level in these sports. Or eliminate these two sports of the Olympic Games

6th place for Levern Spencer is the best ever Olympic result for Saint Lucia Also first ever final for them.

I just learned Mirela Demireva lives and trains here in the Netherlands

 

The Dutch guy interviewing her gave her his headphones so she could talk to the people in the studio (including former hurdler Gregory Sedoc), that was cool
