wins the very first medal of the Olympics!

right back in business, taking the 3rd set 25-20 over

That off balance angle swing by Ishikawa

I wouldn’t really call it right “back in it”, Japan were never really out of it from the start, even down a set.

Very tight 2nd set, ultimately going the way of 25-23 over

Great rally at 23-23

Another Grozer ace

Why though?

^^

Finally? You don’t like him or something?

Can you take a screenshot? I’m not watching at the moment, and I’m curious I’m surprised you’re watching them actually, we’re taking on a pairing that we have a 0% chance against.

Grozer was on fire during the 1st set (especially from the service line) take the 1st set 25-17 over (and 8 points from Grozer )

Nishida really starting to heat up. 3 of Japan’s last 4 points. Edit: 4/5 now.

Nishida hammers it down the line at 4-10!

Really strong start for up 9-2 over Also, Grozer

It’s time, for my first (and the first) out of many volleyball matches at the Olympics! v. , here we go!!

I know, I still want to watch it though since there was nothing else going on

Might have to try that, they’re switching courts in between matches I’d rather stick with the first match honestly.

Canadian broadcaster only has one stream, and it’s not the match that I want to watch (Feng/Huang v. Chiu/Gai, if you’re wondering)

Nice! Enjoy!

Today is the day, my first out of 16 (?) Canadian daily medal chances previews! I’m sure it’s what everyone has been waiting for! (… kidding ) Unfortunately, they’re not going to be as long as usual, as I don’t have the time. So without further ado, here it is. Canadian Olympic Medal Chances Day 1 Preview By far our biggest and most likely medal hope on Day 1 when teen sensation Summer McIntosh will hit the pool for the women’s 400m freestyle final at 11:52 AM/3:52 PM (most likely), but first she’ll have to navigate her way through the heats, hers starts at 2:18 AM/5:18 AM. Couple of outside medal chances as well, with Cordano Russell in men’s street (heat at 6:08 AM/9:08 AM, final at 8:00 AM/11:00 AM), women’s 4x100m freestyle relay (our heat at 3:20am, final at 12:34 PM/3:34 PM), and men’s 4x100m freestyle relay (our heat at 3:31 AM/6:31 AM, final at 12:44 PM/3:44 PM) Let me know if you actually want more of these

First day of Olympic medal events starts today! First action for me is Japan-Germany in men’s volleyball in a couple of hours! (no badminton, purely due to scheduling conflicts)

Starting my day off tomorrow with Japan v. Germany in men’s volleyball, super excited

I just realized… THE OLYMPIC GAMES ARE NOW OFFICIALLY OPEN!

Glad I’m not the only one
