Watching this afternoon's inline skating...I am in love with this venue I think, it looks drop dead gorgeous right by the sea :wub:

 

Technically a river, but it opens to the sea around there.

 

About the cities... in terms of security there isn't much difference between Argentina and Uruguay to be honest. Both have nasty areas you should avoid, maybe Buenos Aires is a bit more "modern" overall. But there are awful taxi drivers here too :p no wonder Uber is killing them.

Actually I usually do say and write Caraguá but I just wanted to brag about my skills now.


It's not long before you'll be able to sing Faroeste Caboclo by heart.

Anyway, it looks gorgeous.

This is gonna be a little complicated :lol:

 

I'm already glad I can sing* Garota de Ipanema, or at least the first part of it. And some Ivete Sangalo songs from many years ago when I liked her music and thought songs like Chupa Toda were innocent :d 

 

*I don't actually sing. You've got to get me really drunk to hear me sing.

I've been trying to sleep for 5 minutes and my mind has already gone "Olha que coisa mais linda, mais cheia de graça, é ela menina, que vem e que passa" at least 50 times. Thanks man for bringing up songs, this is gonna take forever. Might as well turn a taekwondo stream or something back on.

I hate having school during the games, I miss all the fun. Luckily everyone and their mom has entered the men’s weightlifting tonight, so I’ve been able to follow that at least. Plus, NBC just started their coverage.

    • 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.
    • In rugby there's More Squidge Rugby (the main channel has proper videos).
