Rough morning for the :NED

Nobody sees the silver for Kamminga as rough though, this was exactly as expected: Kamminga starting like a madman (the best way for him to race) and Stubblety-Cook finishing way faster than anyone else. Considering how close this race was, any medal would have been a success and unlike....

 

Spoiler

...the rowing women...

 

he definitely sees this as a big success :d

American NBC taking time to show ANOTHER fluff piece of Caeleb Dressel

 

They just can't show the swimmers presentation or it could be like first day of finals, they did not showed the women's 100m butterfly semifinal because they were focusing celebrating the gold at the 400 IM

Dutch NOS generally likes to go with analysing every Dutch race so long that they're back just in time for the next non-Dutch final (if they even show that) :p 

 

Because the regular viewer here apparently wants the STORY instead of live sports.

I really don't think the regular viewer is doing anything else but sleeping at the moment.

Rowdy Gaines, us commentator for NBC is looking more cautious with his commentary LOL, now he is saying he doesn't want to jinx Murphy but he 'expects him to do well' 

 

He has slow down after the Ledecky losses and the overall slow american start so I think now he learned his lesson to tune down his usual american cheerleading

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
