p.s. probably you need a VPN...

 

Can't use a VPN right now unfortunately, maybe in time for the women's finish :p

 

Meanwhile I found this live blog which is also very useful :cheer:

Exactly. I can't believe how hypocritical some people are - it's perfectly normal when Ledecky or Sjostrem win medal after medal, but not when Russians do so

I don't know. Please open my eyes. Did Hungary win too many medals? What about Gyurta Dániel? An Olympic Champion but here he is 26. Cseh László? 4xOlimpic silver medalist. Here? 11. Women's 4x100 rel

yeah, that's the main Italian sports website...they follow carefully almost everything...

 

p.s. it looks that we're going to have another French Gold medal (but I still keep my fingers crossed for Ruffini to make a strong finish and upset Reynaud...and Furlan + Drattsev are not out of contention yet)...

great finish of this race...

And Bridi is in the lead group in the women's race with 2-3km to go (with Cunha and Van Rouwendaal, which is quite amazing considering Van Rouwendaal is barely recovered from mononucleosis).

c'mon!!! what a mistake by Furlan! he has just thrown the Gold medal away...he started his forcing too late and came just short...:wall:

Ruffini instead suddenly just lost his energy and at the end he's only 4th (and should have been disqualified for the move on Drattsev in the last 20 meters, too)...

 

p.s. now the usual rai TV...they're not going to follow the rest of the women's race because of a senseless news program...

hopefully they are back at least for the last few meters of the girls...

Reading about a red flag, so that DSQ might be on it's way....swimming 5 hours for a DSQ, damn.

 

 

 

By the way:

 

Was this Ruffini's last career race? :yikes:

He is one of the stupid that think that Ruffini is a bad swimmer, it was sarcastic...

      Do or die for the US women.  Japan has nothing to play for, but I'm sure they would love to beat Norway if they have to face them again.  Let's go Tabitha!

      Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony.

      That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
