    I don't know if this is considered sports or robotics but I'm currently watching ABU Robocon events replay from previous years  and it's pretty awesome.
     
    2019 :Mongolia
     
     
    2017: Japan

    2016:Thailand
     
     
    The event was first organised in 2003 in Japan and has been held every year since then with different themes. It's an Asia Pacific Contest but Russia, Turkey, Egypt have participated many times .
     
     
    The 2020 event will be held in Fiji and the theme is RoboRugby 7s.

    It was on dd sports website. I don't think it's available now because the website was revamped 2 years ago. There were a couple of good events. TT was nice. Judo and Taekwondo were held in day and it was so nice to see draws. All nations were given opportunity to medal by somehow manipulating draws. So cape Verde and Guinea Bissau had many finalist. The atmosphere was brilliant with full capacity attendance including 35000 in football final and 4000+ in a match between Sao Tome And Principe vs Sri Lanka

    Yes, but that is also because of many goans who ran away many years ago to portuguese colonies, and then to Portugal (after independence from colonies), I had a few friends with stories like that.
     
    still it’s interesting how the language resisted in India after so many years

      'Maria Pitache'
    This is a folk song of Daman and Goa a part of  the  Konkani  culture in Portuguese language.This is a vibrant fast paced song played in almost every Christian wedding in a Konkan coast regions. A former Portuguese colony, Goa is influenced heavily by the Portuguese culture with beautiful beaches, marvellous churches ,architecture and entertaining music and dance .

    In my honest opinion, a song mash up is not a good idea for the contest, unless it's a stylistic decision made by the artist himself/herself, like, for example, there are some albums that have double songs as the final track of the album. Other than that, I think making our own mixes would impact the song contest negatively and it would also be a re-invention of the music that has been done 'right now' opposed to the 'released 5 years ago' as the rules state.

    Yeah that's what I was afraid both the songs will not get proper justice if I use remix. Maybe by tomorrow I'll post the Indian entrant.

    I am pretty sure the release date of the background video doesn't matter if the audio is old. We are voting for the songs/recordings, not the videos, which are just a "bonus" because we are using YouTube and not, for example, Spotify.

    So Indian campaign at the Asian TT Championship ends. 
    Men's Team did well to finish 5th. 
    Women's Team could have done better (9th)
    Doubles we didn't get good draw. 
    Men's Singles - Sathiyan reached quarters, 1st Indian to do so in 43 years, went down fighting against Lin Gaoyan, WNO 4 from China. 
    Women's Singles - Ayika Mukherjee had a fantastic tournament beating Chen Szu Yu in 1st round and then in pre quarters giving a great performance against the Olympic Champion (if i am not wrong, 1st Indian ever to pull a game off Ding Ning, who later crushed Japanese No1 in straight sets in quarters).

    Not to forget the Chinese are the only Ones from their country in the finals too. I too had predicted the result more out of hope than expectation in XD. I was hoping Antonsen to do the upset as he beat Momota last time they met.

    I actually have to agree somewhat with @Fly_like_a_don here. The games lack energy. I haven’t felt motivated to watch them at all because competition fields are small and quite a few of the events are weak. For the world’s third biggest multi-sport event, It hasn’t felt like the big deal it should be. The US sent A,B,C athletes and we’re getting to 50 golds at the halfway mark. I’m the rest of the continent can’t keep up. The quality of most competitions is low. There are generally 2-4 world class athletes in each event and that’s it. It just feels like a weak event.
  22. Wow!
    Fly_like_a_don got a reaction from Dunadan in Pan American Games 2019   
    Undoubtedly the most boring multi sport event of the year. Absolutely nothing to watch. The USA and Canada are sending 2nd or 3rd string teams still dominate, there is no nation close by to US. The smaller nations aren't able to do anything but it's expected. There is absolutely no interest to watch any country or athlete here. Overall it was the most boring multi sport event of the year. The North American and Caribbean Games (US and Canada in selected events) and The South American games should be separate.

    They're spending enough time together without the gimmick mixed relays Add the NCAA programmes and all that crap and I'm surprised there's not more beef among them. It must be tiresome to hang around the same people time and time again for well over 10 years tbh    Adding team events in individual sports is useless, it's as overrated as Ryder Cup in golf.
