  1. Rune qualifying is definitively really exciting.
  2. Her body has also clearly been breaking down for a few years, this isn't the first time she unexpectedly bombs out. 43 is extremely old for a weightlifter, after all.
  3. She sure did. ...I did not have "both Canadians will win their heats" on my bingo card.
  4. Sure sounds like those BBC pundits got really used to Britain's decade of dominance in track cycling and assumed it must be the state of the world for ever.
  5. Really curious to see how well Mitchell can do here. She came sort of out of nowhere to get the 500m time trial world record but, as far as I know, she doesn't have a ton of experience.
  6. In extremely unsurprising news Laurel Hubbard has announced her retirement.
  7. I don't think Mayer made up enough ground on Warner on the shot put.
  8. Poland may have won the contest for best wordplay (POL/SKA) on a skateboarding uniform, tho.
  9. First ever Olympic victory in wrestling by . San Marino has done a great job developing wrestlers by... lucking out that a good American wrestler happened to have a great-grandmother form San Marino :P
  10. These 400mh world records are endangered species.
  11. Both Vincent and LVL won their heats in the women's C-1 200m. They didn't have the fastest times among heat winners, but I don't think we can read too much into that.
  12. We'll count that as a honorary fourth place.
  13. I'd offer sympathy, but Canada's two summer golds in team sports are both from 1904, so we don't even have video of them. (Not counting the ice hockey gold from 1920, since that later became a winter Olympic sport)
  14. Me, 30 minutes ago: there is no way anyone has a more disappointing Olympics than the Canadian women in beach volleyball. Turns out I was wrong. That's a gut punch for Poland
  15. At least Canada doesn’t have the worst volleyball disappointed of the day (commiseration with our Polish friends)
  16. Other than women's soccer nothing has gone right for Canada since the W8+.
  17. Down 8-4, this is not looking good...
  18. Pavan / Humana-Parades got unlucky on a couple points and are down 5-2 in the third.
  19. 2 faults being the cut-off for the final is kind of ridiculous. Also no ties for 30th so we will only have 30 individual finalists. I'm sure everyone who made it is pleased about that.
  20. Pavan is on fire all the sudden.
