I feel sorry for you. Such a terrible Olympics for Finland... :(

Oh well, gonna wait for the Winter olympics. In those games, we can actually win something. Last time we won 5 medals, including 1 gold

Marathon time :)

 

Also :( because it means it's the last day of the Olympics. Anyway, everyone is saying Kipchoge is the big favourite, but I doubt he's gonna win...though I have no idea who will win :d

Hello, Olympic Fan. 

 

First of all, I would ask respect for Spain, a country that is struggling to emerge from recession and whose athletes are in a difficult situation, with little help. :cry:

I'll remind the world champions we have had in recent years;

 

- Fatima Galvez (Shooting, Trap)
- Alberto Fernández (Shooting, Trap)
- Echegoyen / Betanzos (Saling, 49er FX)
- Javier Gomez Noya (Triathlon)
- Carolina Marin (Badminton)
- Miguel Angel Lopez (Athletics, Race Walk)
- Female Waterpolo
- Men's Handball
- Joel González (Taekwondo)

---

And many other world runners-up and bronze medal. ¿Is this a 0.00000001%?

 

Regards

I didnt show disrespect anywhere, i didnt say that its bad that Spain won more than 5 golds, but before the start of the games it was more than unrealistic for Spain to win 5 golds or more, just accept that you got extremely lucky and wont repeat this result in 4 years.

About your list:

Your mens handball team and Javier Gomez didnt even compete here, so they dont count.

Your womens water polo team NEVER had a chance to win the gold, its ridiculous to think that they ever had a chance to win the gold.

In general it doesnt make any sense to count all those athletes who became world champions in the last couple of years, at best you could count those athletes who were defending world champions.

Before the start of the games only Marin and Belmonte (womens 200 fly) were favorites for gold, your gold medal winners in canoeing sprint couldnt be considered gold medal contenders, its a huge surprise that you won not only one but two golds in canoeing sprint.

Lopez/Nadal got very lucky, because Wawrinka/Federer had to whitdraw, otherwise it would have been very unlikely for them to win the gold.

No one could seriously consider Beitia a gold medal contender and before the start of the games no one would have thought that 1.97 m would be enough to win the gold.

Only your two shooters, your womens 49er, Gonzalez, Chourraut and maybe Lopez could be considered gold medal contenders, but none of them was the favorite to win the gold. In my opinion 3 gold medals wold have been a very good result for Spain and the probability of your country winning 7 golds was definitely below 1%.

 

I would put it like this:

3 golds for Spain = lucky

4 golds for Spain = very lucky

5 golds for Spain = extremely lucky

6 golds for Spain = once in 10.000 years

7 golds for Spain = probability of Germany sweeping mens and womens marathon medals in Rio

    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
