  1. Polish politics jumped on the Olympic-Train and now it is loud about investigate how the gov founding were spend and who is to blame. Special parliamentary commission should be formed to interrogate athletes about their problems with the sports federations. Probably just for show, Olympics is now main topic in the media, so the politician are trying to score some points. After two weeks no one will care and nothing will change.
  2. I think it should depends on numer of heats, not on distance, if there are only three heats, there is no reason to have semi-finals.
  3. It's easy: Surfing BMX Race Karate Kata Skateboard Street E-Sport Break As mixed-team event, of course. We will call it Urbanathlon.
  4. Paris 2024 was the 4th Games (Sommer+Winter) where i did not care about the medal table. And enjoyed the Games and sport very much. (well Eurosport, Max, DiscoverPlus (branding may vary by region) has destroyed it for me by showing the medal table at pauses in the broadcast.) It weird concept to me, summing medals from team and individual sports, sports with a lot of same-but-little-different events or lot of different weight classes etc. Yeah, a lot of people don't care about sport, games, about the athletes, about the competition, but just care about a number in a table. There is a plenty of statistic on the world ranking countries - why not interested about that?
  5. To makes the Games more youth and urban, because all the kids and teens are listing Snoop Dog...
  6. Not really a 'moment', but it is great that every session i saw the stands was full and the crowd was there. After the 'silent games' it is great to have all the fans! Great atmosphere. I like the new ritual of opening of every session by hitting three times with wooden staff - i think you know what i mean. Men's Volleyball QF vs was the most thrilling and positive moment for oblivious reasons. And also, the fight in the semi-final after being behind and having serious injuries. I think the Korean archery coach is really cool. (Playing "Gangsta's Paradise" for presentatnion of the archers and coaches was just perfect!) Speaking of archery: men's individual final Kim vs. Ellison and the 5th set tied after both achieving 10-10-10 and the shoot-off (where both shoot 10s, too). C'mon it was just the peak of the archery level you can achieve and this in the Olympic final!
  7. Between the last match and medal ceremony there were broadcasting 5 Best (the longest? ) Rallies: vs , vs , vs , vs and vs .
  8. Geraint Thomas collected all the podim places - how many riders achive that?
  9. Thomas Bach (Olympic Champion, Fencing) spotted next to the podium.
  10. Stage 1 - F. Ganna (4) Stage 2 - too late (176) Stage 3 - F. Jakobsen (5) Stage 4 - P. Sagan (5) Stage 5 - W. Van Aert (16) Stage 6 - D. Teuns (6) Stage 7 - T. Pogačar (1) Stage 8 - M.Matthews (2) Stage 9 - B. Jungels (1) Stage 10 - L. Kämna (10 + virtual yellow ) Stage 11 - J. Vingegaard (1) [=227] my last few picks was very lucky for the riders so today I'm going with Stage 12 - R. Bardet
