Is this thread about paris medal predictions anymore or a history class 💀💀💀

It's more interesting than mocking the gracenote scam.

But I still don’t think Duenas has an ñ in his last name. 

His parents probably have if they're immigrants. Ofc he doesn't if he was born in Canada. It was just a joke from my part anyway.

Duenas isn’t Spanish though? He’s Filipino-Canadian. 

The Philippines were a Spanish colony for some time. A lot of filipinos have hispanic names as a result and their language has a lot of imported words from spanish.

I’m assuming you mean Duenas, right? 

You mean Dueñas?

cant believe it, same as the shooting quota last week, another 6

Leithold threw away a quota in a shoot-off as well for Tokyo I believe.

If there is a shoot-off, sudden death, golden point, whatever in these tense individual sports always expect the  to drop the ball.

I know little about the technical aspects of this sport but surely our guy, with those paper-thin arms he has, was not making the best decision delaying his shooting so many seconds... basically threw the set on 3-3 (when he only needed an 8) and the shoot-off by doing that.

Qualification should be like in Judo. The best 16 (1x country) get in, period.

If some continent is not represented, deduct 1 quota from that top 16 until all of them are.

The best player of  (Marcos Moneta) suffered a fibula fracture in the first minute of the first match in Hong Kong. 

Unless the injury is more serious than speculated (more studies pending) he's in time for Paris. But seeing the team playing relatively poorly without him could mean two rough stages are ahead.

You must add the  to Argentina, never an argentinian qualify to the olympic games in this sport.

Not true, there was representation in 1988.

Nations favorite tomorrow ?

M -68:  & 

M -80:  &  (or maybe  )

W -49:  &  or  

W -67:  &  

Di Tella out, nothing here for us.

Perez Maurice injury forfeit. I think this is the definitve end of her career, she un-retired only for this I believe.

Our folks (N17) had the medal but dropped a stinker in the MR.

Liked post about propaganda TV channel "Belarus 5".

But she likes the posts of a political figure who supports the war and Lukashenko

Yes, I understood that but it's not what I asked. 

Has she liked any post especifically about the war? all those pics look like modeling stuff.

This "thought police" policy to accept or deny athletes is madness.  

It should be accept everyone or no one. No in between. 

 3-1

 qualified.

Play-off

 2-0

 qualified.

And Austria scored a goal in 6 seconds earlier this day. Crazy.

Play-off Finals

 v

 v

 v

That seems like a manageable group but ofc we'll end up bringing a trash team that will finish last thanks to greedy european clubs.

how polarizing the Brazilian community is to LGBTQ+ people. 

What do you mean?

or did you write the adjectives in the wrong order?

Hungary and Austria both played later in the day and failed to obtain (by 1 goal) the GD advantage in case their final games end in a draw.

Our W1x has much better potential than the LM2x guys but oh well, guess they are desperate to send more people in order to secure funding.

Rules for the draw:

-France fixed to A1.

-Pots will be draw in order from 1st to 4th.

-No two teams from the same continent in a group. Play-off team can't be drawn with asian or african teams. (which means they are guaranteed to be in 's group and with either or )
