  1. Canada not looking like they will advance in women's Rugby 7s, they are behind China in the ranking for third.
  2. The Chinese cox presenting the medals is amazing.
  3. The Canadian W8+ tried the same tactic in Rio and it was a major flop. The CBC commentator mentioned that going out fast and praying it would stick was Canada's only real chance at a medal. Well, this time it worked.
  4. What an amazing race by the women's eight. Canada was having a terrible regatta. The eight wasn't even looking that good in the heats and rep. Just incredible.
  5. What a gutsy race from the Canadians. Wow. This is a major surprise.
  6. I'm guessing some people at Rugby Canada are going to start editing their résumé...
  7. beat Canada 31-0 in Rugby 7s. That score honestly flatters Canada. There is a very good chance Canada won't even make the quarterfinals, which at this point would feel like a mercy killing. If Canada makes it to the QF they are going to have to face either France or New Zealand.
  8. Canada is getting eaten alive by France in the first half of their Rugby 7s match. They might not even make it out of pools.
  9. Apparently Mislawchuk injured his achilles in the individual event.
  10. I mean that's a pretty good list of athletes to make into household names...
  11. She's not going to repeat. I'm willing to bet a ton of money she won't repeat. So what?
  12. Again, she gets to win an Olympic title she never expected to be able to win. How disappointing. This is beyond what anyone expected Sunni Lee to ever do. She's not an all time great. But she's an Olympic all around champion, and she'll be an Olympic all around champion for the rest of her life.
  13. Oh no, she only gets to win a gold medal she never expected to win. How tragic.
  14. The fact Andrade is in the Olympics at all is a miracle. Her winning silver is just amazing. I don't think calling this a "choke" is fair at all.
  15. I'm sure she'll be more than happy with being all around Olympic champion once.
  16. Not sure it was mentioned here but ultimately the women's foil team finished 5th, which is the second best result ever for Canada in fencing. Jessica Guo is a really exciting prospect for LA and Brisbane (she's still going to be really young in Paris).
  17. To be fair on the women's side anyway this was more a C team than a B team. I think they pretty wisely decided this wasn't going to be a medal chance.
  18. made the finals, Canada was 13th... ya.
  19. I really hope Canada wasn't trying to make the finals, because if they were...
