Save those questions for the 2026 World Cup and then the 2028 Olympics where the world will get to find out for themselves!

2024 Paris Olympics schedule: Super Saturday finals set in gymnastics, swimming, track They're already dubbing Day 8 as Super Saturday for the United States. That day, we have (these are all US Eastern Time Zone)... 4:50pm - Women's Rowing - Eights 6:00am - Women's Tennis - singles final 9:30am - Men's Skeet Shooting 10:19am - Women's Gymnastics - vault 1:35pm - Men's Track & Field - shot put 1:50pm - Women's Track & Field - 100m semifinal 2:30pm - Men's Swimming - 100m butterfly 2:59pm - Women's Swimming - 200 IM 3:09pm - Women's Swimming - 800m free 3:20pm - Women's Track & Field - 100m final 1:30pm until 3:30pm is going to be some hot fire!

Good call, forgot about that. Although the full schedule for basketball with start times might not come until a little later since they still have the qualifying tournaments

The athletics timetable has been public for awhile, but that's new and very welcome info with swimming and gymnastics. Thanks for sharing! I have some spreadsheet updating to take care of! Next big piece of the puzzle is the football draws next week.

Good to see it's not just NBC that gets a little home cooking!

Early start here in the US. Both the men and women will be competing around 5am ET. Although hopefully that means a few extra hours of TV coverage here. Guess I'm waking up early both of those days, or at least Sunday for the women!

Arlington? Because technically, that stadium isn't in the city anymore than ours is

Suck it, Dallas! I'm extremely surprised by that. But obviously will not complain about the result!!

The ISU, and only the ISU, determines the results of the competition. The IOC will then act accordingly to make sure the correct athletes get their medals. The good thing is that this isn't a re-allocation since the medals were never awarded in the first place. My hope would be that they work together to make this happen in Montreal in March. But I don't have that much faith in either side to do this properly and with the respect these athletes deserve after they were robbed of justice in Beijing.

From the way the press release is worded, it doesn't seem like CAS has made that ruling. Don't know what this means, but it sounds like the ISU now gets to make the decision. So they could either nullify just Valieva's results and that would theoretically give ROC the bronze. Or they could disqualify the whole federation and then Canada would presumably get upgraded.

Hi all. Finished work on my spreadsheets (for now). There are 2 separate ones for now, but they're linked to each other. One goes day by day, the other is sport by sport.. Paris 2024 competition schedule by Day Paris 2024 competition schedule by Sport I'll update these as more of the schedule gets filled out, like matchups in team sports and breakdown of individual events in sports like swimming (I have the track events in athletics broken down by time. If anyone has additional information to add or new schedules get released, I'll add them here. Don't know how much I'll keep up during the games as the team sports reach the elimination rounds, but anyone who wants to help is more than welcome! And if anyone has any suggestions on how to make improvements here, I'm open to opinions. Thanks!

That entire middle weekend is going to be incredible. Toss up for me between Day 8 and Day 9. Both have finals in swimming, track & field, and gymnastics. Plus it's the last 2 rounds of men's golf, the 2 cycling road races (that's going to be something special), all the finals in tennis. I will be locked in!!

This is awful. I get the IOC has to protect copyright law when it comes to video, but this one makes no sense.

They need 6 days for the rugby tournaments, so that slots in nicely at Stade de France before the athletics competition begins, especially since unlike pretty much any other Olympics, they're not using the stadium for the opening ceremony. The football tournament is spread out over the length of the Olympics, so they put that at Parc des Princes. I can't speak to French rugby, but I know they had the World Cup at Stade de France, so if they can get the big crowds there for the Olympics, it makes a lot of sense to have rugby there

Pushing Salt Lake to 2034 is a bonus for the IOC, but it was mostly the USOPC pushing that. Having LA and Salt Lake only 18 months apart would be tough for LA to try and share in sponsorship dollars. That's what the USOPC wanted to hold off on Salt Lake. If they're asking companies to invest big in the Olympics, it's a tough ask for those same companies to do the same thing again less than 2 years later. 6 years later is an easier sell

Been saying the same thing for years now. For all of the times that it was said the USOPC preferred 2034 to 2030, even when the IOC seemed like they may not have any options for 2030, that's going to be a huge boon for media rights. Have a feeling they'll open up those negotiations right around when things are heating up for 2028 so they can maximize that contract. As opposed to the 2022-2032 deal which they handed to NBC without much of a fight.

Sounds like financial guarantees were an issue. And yes, not a fan of how 1 day the IOC just decides that they have a location in mind for the 2038 games.

Feel bad for Sweden. 3 countries just got validated and Sweden left out in the proverbial (and literal) cold yet again.

It is assumed they will award the 2034 Olympics to Salt Lake City.

I trust the source, so perhaps this might be it and France is about to get announced as host of the 2030 Olympics. That would be a shocker

It's a long ways off, but I'd love to be there. I've only been to 1 other Olympics (Salt Lake 2002) and that was to work, so it would be nice to be there strictly as a spectator.

It's definitely fair to ask the question and I'm hoping if there's more to the story that this is mental health related, we'll learn about it. Again, I just don't want to jump to any conclusions because of some random posting on instagram. That said, this is someone whose opinion I weigh a lot more strongly and this definitely does hint at mental health as the reason she is gone...

Who is Paul Askew and why do we put that much stock into 1 post on IG that we're assuming she committed suicide? Especially if he's going to mention USATF in that post since there seems like there's an accusation there and not provide much additional context. I have a feeling we'll find out more in time, but for now, let's not jump to the conclusion that this was suicide just because 1 random post on IG said so

No cause of death has been mentioned. Suicide has not been brought up, so not sure why you would jump to that conclusion

I have seen it before and I think this would be a great addition to the Olympics. Not like they need a big fancy permanent venue for it, either. They probably don't have the appropriate international organization to make it happen, but I like the idea
