Is there another version of Eric the Eel? 
 

Someone like that has my support 

There's the Sudanese guy (living in US) who never ran a marathon and got a Universality quota to Marathon

thank you for supporting some French people, you won't support the French judokas and fencers?

Field Hockey: :ARG !!!

Handball: :FRA

I think my biggest non-Canadian wishlist item is for :FRA to win a gold medal in table tennis.

 

Beyond that:

:ARG and :IND in field hockey

:PAK Nadeem in the men's javelin

:IRL Wiffen in swimming

Literally everyone who plays against :GER Zverev in tennis

:NZL Routliffe and Sun in the women's doubles in tennis

:CZE Ondra in climbing

:AUT The Alexandri sisters in the women's duet in artistic swimming

:IRL McIlroy in golf

:PHI Yulo in gymnastics

:ALG Nemour in gymnastics

 

And any athlete from a country that has never won a gold medal.

This :d


Same for anyone who plays against Ostapenko, Seyboth Wild, Errani, Haddad Maia, and the r***** Van De Velde/Immers (and in athletics I’ll be rooting against Lyles and Richardson)


Edit: Oh and Cheng/Hughes (nothing against Hughes)
 

:FRA winning gold in table tennis isn’t happening, sorry to tell you. If you wished for them to win a medal with one of the Lebrun brothers or their men’s team, then yeah it’s possible.
