wellll...i really play bad now but sometimes i feel....that even i have a better technique and ball control than some of those Olympians...also from Sweden...what i mean is that the match is horrible

Thats the great and maybe sick thing about olympics. You watch events that you normally would never watch, just because its the olympics. :thumbup:

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

very, very disappointed with the attendance at the first game...it reminds me the Athens 2004 experience, where only basketball and athletics had full stadiums...

 

now I see that in Sao Paulo it's better...but we're still far away from what it should look in an event like the OG...

 

I hope that tomorrow the boys would get more attention...

 

meanwhile, I like the graphics...they're definitely better than London and Sochi's (despite using more or less the same font)...

1-0 Canada, Beckie scored

Kerr off for Cately, Wilkinson off for Chapman

Brazil VS PRC underway

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

Don't expect huge crowds in women's football, most of the tickets not sold comes from these matches. Also, even sports like Rowing have some sessions sold out, so I wouldn't worry so much about empty stadiums.

I really hope it's like you wrote...I wish these Games all the best and I really hope they're going to be a great success...

 

I keep my fingers crossed...:fingers:;)

    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
    • Just another reason why it's super dumb that the NOC max in freestyle skiing isn't 40.
