The US Olympic Commitee contacted their swimmers to tell them to expect gold medals but it turned out they jumped the gun by a long, long way.

NBC broadcast the Olympics in America. For NBC, American athletes are of course the best athletes on the planet (especially in swimming, athletics, gymnastics). Anytime some one else beats said athletes there must be some outside reason. No one could objectively be better than Americans. 

 

So in Paris, when China wins a bunch of medals in swimming, because they have a  great generation, NBC will have the graphics and it's analyst pull reports how China are "allegedly doping" and this is why they are winning.

Also has anyone read the report about World aquatics stonewalling the independent review committee on the situation? They are refusing to give the required documents of the 28 athletes to properly review the case for the past three weeks. They are stalling them from finding out the truth. How is this allowed?

    • Here's all the confirmed NHLers so far that I could find. Some big names are going.

    • Regarding the swimming they have added the 800m for men and the 1500m for women so cutting numbers would be odd. 
    • That quota I’ve been told by an athlete aiming to qualify who I know online. 
    • Has the quota for Canada been offically confirmed anyway, or is that just a rumour? I can't find anything on google about it (nor the suggested quota for England's athletes someone posted earlier).   12 per gender would make sense (it's roughly what Canada sent to Birmingham). 12 overall seems dumb.
    • Some sports have qualification systems   3x3 basketball (wheelchair) Para-cycling Powerlifting Weightlifting
    • In the past few games, Canada (and other nations) was given an overall athlete quota which they then divided it through the various sports.
