OlympicIRL

is the model of consistency

Sydney 2000 was the only Olympics I couldn’t follow fully because I was at secondary school at the time Since that I have watched all the Summer Games pretty much fully (obviously not fully but you know what I mean). Winter Olympics is another story of course, I don’t change my schedule for those but I did stay awake some nights during Vancouver 2010 because I wasn’t at school, didn’t have a job and had that luxury

Incredible (and sad) to see Cuba with only 69 athletes!

Someone should inform them they are 25 years too late

name a team of 30 athletes for the Olympics. They also named 5 others in athletics who will be added if they get invitations from World Athletics via the world rankings prociess. Of these 5, only 3 are currently inside the quota places in the Road To Tokyo rankings (Gunta Vaičule in W 200m and Rolands Štrobinders in M Javelin are just outside the quotas currently). https://olimpiade.lv/lv/jaunumi/zinas/latvijas-komanda-olimpiskajas-speles-tokija-apstiprinati-30-sportisti-14-sporta-veidos-2079 https://olimpiade.lv/upload/content/30_sportisti_lok_ik_tokyo2020_komandas_prezentacija_medijiem.pdf Latvia - 30 (5 Athletics - 4 Basketball 3x3 - 4 Beach Volley - 1 Canoeing Sprint - 2 Cycling BMX Racing - 2 Cycling Road - 1 Equestrian - 1 Judo - 1 Karate - 1 Modern Pentathlon - 1 Shooting - 2 Swimming - 2 Tennis - 2 Weighlifting - 1 Wrestling)

I am waiting for @Sindo to enter the market so we can broadcast the Games from Totallympics 100 live streams

We should start a crowdfunding campaign…. “Raise funds for Totallympians to reach their dreams of watching hours of coverage of the Olympics”

I didn’t see Ireland mentioned but I thought for us is was going to be on Discovery+. I still don’t have certainty on whether it will be on the Eurosport player or Discovery in Ireland. I’ll probably end up subscribing to Discovery just to be sure

I wonder are they including Ireland in the United Kingdom?

Does anyone know what the parade of nations will look like? I mean will it just be the flag bearers alone for each nation?

Keep up the great work Ben

@Benolympique +1 in women’s artistic gymnastics https://olympics.ie/team-ireland-gymnasts-announced/ You probably haven’t updated the boxing European ranking qualifiers yet but just in case you have, Ireland has 7 boxers going to Tokyo.

Yes that’s the exact important detail I want to know

Swim Ireland have nominated Ellen Walshe along with the rest of the FINA A time qualifiers so that’s great news. Just waiting on the OFI to complete the selection process now

I have Eurosport player subscription for the year but I am not sure whether the streams are available in Ireland. It’s very confusing this time

Rhys McClenaghan will be in subdivision 1. Do you know in which rotation he will compete on pommel?
