Thank you very much, Near.

It is important to us. Spain is a small country in the world swimming (8 Olympic medals in history, half of Mireia) and is very important to encourage children to swim.

Haha, I don't think Byron McDonald (our commentator) realized he was still on air.  "That Chinese swimmer went out like a rocket and sank like a pig.  Thanks for that!"  

:d

 

EDIT: Sorry, Byron, not Brian.  

 

Hahahahahaha

 

CBC just formally apologized for this comment.

Disgusting results in mens 200 breast and womens 100 free. I am happy for Belmonte and Chalmers.

Yes disgusting... You start to bore me. Is possible that you resent every single result in every sport?

In the meantime they win and give emotions and you criticize from your sofa.

They have World and Olympic record and you?

Yeah, your poor english also bores me, but i dont say anything, because its off-topic and the same can be said about your comment here. 

By the way: The winner of mens 200 breast neither has a world record nor an olympic record, please at least try to get your facts right the next time before you write. :yes

Well, my english is poor, it's right, but my brain work good. My reasoning was generic and not for the 200m breaststroke.

I won't lose other time whit you. I'll start to ingnore, It is the best method against ignorance and presumption.

Yes, finally you got that your comment was off-topic. I think its best for both of us if you just ignore me in the future, then i wont have to deal with your nonsensical comments anymore. 

 

By the way: Generic? :bowdown: Your brain really seems to work (remember) well ... at least most of the time. :yes

Interesting question: You said that they (those i criticized) have olympic/world records, but that cant be said about Balandin, so doesnt one counterexample prove you wrong? :mumble:

Lets just assume that you werent talking about Balandin (Which is weird, because i only mentioned mens 200 breast and womens 100 free ... So you just excluded 50% of the athletes i talked about?), otherwise you probably should have said that MOST of them have olympic/world records.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
