Rowing at the Summer Olympic Games 2016

[OlympicsFan 858]

We are really embarrassing in rowing, we should end the funding. We are decent in both quadruple sculls and mens eight, but in all other boats we are a third-world countries at best. Normally i would say that most other nations outdoped us, looking at the results, but then we probably would be shit in all disciplines ... 

I also wonder what happened with our mens quadruple sculls, they were shit all season long and now they are suddenly the best ... ?

Silver 

 

Although the usually shitty camera positions seemed to show they'd pass the Germans in the end

Wow, congrats! Was your team even among the favorites before the olympics? I am really shocked that your boat was so close, obviously our team wasnt in a very good shape.

So you will leave Rio with at least one silver and a gold, am i right to assume that this is more than expected?

This men's pair final is just as exciting as the women's 800m freestyle final will be  (for the gold and not unexpected obviously)
