Poland won 11 medals in each of the last three SOG so I'm gonna say 11 is the target again

My most probable picks:

3x athletics (Fajdek or Nowicki, Lewandowski and women's 4x400 relay)

2x canoeing (women's C1 or K1 and women's K2 or K4)

2x rowing

1x sailing

1x volleyball (Men's Team)

2x random upsets (judo, wrestling, swimming or Niewiadoma in women's cycling).

I didn't even count Wlodarczyk in hammer & Andrejczyk in javelin.

That's what you get when marijuana is more important than Olympic gold medal

Jorginho absolutely trolled Simon there. Italy in the final.

And now Morata fails...

Olmo blows it over the bar.

Locatelli saved.

Hello, Morata!

Oyarzabal with a bad miss

Chiesa scores!!! Five passes from Donnarumma onwards...

Well, this was the worst half for Italy at the Euros but it's still 0-0.

The ball toy car is back

Finally no Morata in the starting line-up!

It has happened. Lukas Podolski has joined boyhood fave club Gornik Zabrze.

He said he will play for Gornik before he retires for years but most people stopped believing he actually will.

Believe it or not, from what I could find, 3 of them were born and raised in Israel: Leichman, Lipetz, Erel. Though the first two were born to American parents and Erel spent part of his life in the US 

Being born in Israel is not what I meant. I meant whether they are living in USA. I checked this Shlomo Lipetz guy since that sounded like someone who wasn't born in USA and he was not but he lives in Brooklyn so checks down on my list too

It's early July and Ohtani has actually extended the gap at the top of the HR charts. Sadly the Angels' pitching & bullpen remains their liability (third worst ERA in the AL) so they can only dream about a Wild Card berth IMO.

Six teams have won at least 50 games so far. On the other end, Arizona Diamondbacks is the worst team (23-63 record). They managed to set a MLB record 24-game losing streak in away games

I assume every single player is based in the USA?

This is one suspicious. It looked like a stomach bug or a panic attack. It seems like she was physically unable to play any more matches than she did. She actually announced retirement off-court which is highly unusual.

Looking at the crowds at Mid-Ohio and Road America it sure looks like COVID is gone in USA. Joe Biden probably approved it too

It's funny since I always considered Kim Batten's WR as the "old" WR

I thought Femke Bol would have more chance for a medal at 400m given all the mess down there but maybe she can actually sneak one in 400h?

Max Verstappen wins at the Red Bull Ring. Hamilton had some rear end issues and only finished 4th behind Bottas and Norris.

Raikkonen & Vettel had a dumb crash on the last lap as the Finn didn't really look in his mirrors.

A rash of 5 second penalties for forcing driver off track (2x Perez, 1x Norris) and crossing white line at pitlane entry (2x Tsunoda).

What both ways? Teams that had to travel around Europe didn't get into the last four. What advantage they had?

Since the introduction of group stage at the Euros only one host nation won the title (1984) so I don't believe in the "one team advantage" narrative either.

All four teams in the semifinals played all their group games at home.
England - 3 x London

Denmark - 3 x Copenhagen

Italy- 3 x Rome

Spain- 3 x Seville

Yes, this is also show how stupid this idea was. Hosting the games gave all those teams a huge advantage. Thankfully Michel Platini who created this stupid format has been removed so he won't come up with any further nonsense.
