    I honestly don't understand what you're going on about. One individual swimmer says she thinks she can go faster with more work, and suddenly she's greedy and all of Canada is arrogant? Have you ever spoken to any athlete anywhere?
  2. orangeman
    I fail to see how an athlete wanting to improve is greedy, or deserving of negativity. Wanting to do better is a good thing for everyone.

    Personally, I really like relays but I find the 4x100 and 4x200 redundant. It's always the same countries winning medals. However, now that Canada wins medals in these I think they're the best thing ever and should stay on the program.

    She's said in each interview that she's not happy with her times. Still PBs in the finals and medals around her neck, so as a viewer I'd say she's doing her best. But according to her she can do better.

    Sanchez had a faster time in qualifications (by 0.02, but still, Ruck is supposed to be the next star).
  6. orangeman
    Ruck also had the 6th fastest time on her leg. Not exactly impressive. She has not had a great meet.

    But Canada looking good for the women's medley relay tomorrow. Got the gold medalists in the back and fly, bronze medalist in the breast (if they go with Pickrem) and the defending Olympic champion in the free who just had the fastest time in this relay.
  8. orangeman
    Yup. With respect to our whole team, can't do much with the state of the men's program as it is.
  9. orangeman
    Oleksiak and Manuel tie again for the best female 100 in the relay at 52 even.
  10. orangeman
    Damn, Oleksiak almost got Canada a bronze.
  11. orangeman
    Masse now ties Pickrem for most individual medals at the WCs. But Masse has 2 golds, so technically ahead. Until tomorrow (hopefully) where Pickrem has a good chance in the 400 IM. Edit: Most individual medals for Canada.

    Wow, the Netherlands barely sneaks into the final of the relay by 0.08. Both Germany and Poland miss out on the finals by less than a third of a second.
  13. orangeman
    Go Seychelles and Mongolia!
  14. orangeman
    Another no-show Canadian in their heat (Sanchez in the 100).
  15. orangeman
    0.23 separating 2-5. Wow.
  16. orangeman
    M 200 breaststroke, M 4x200 relay.
  17. orangeman
    This is officially Canada's best medal performance at a WC in swimming ever. And still several chances left. Edit: Sorry, they've tied their most medals so far.
  18. orangeman
    Canada will happily take another medal. Thanks Pickrem!
  19. orangeman
    It is truly shocking the disparity between the Canadian men and women right now. I mean, I'm happy our women have been doing so well, and look to actually be improving. But how can the men be left so far behind? Maybe Thormeyer and Pratt can rise a bit in the coming years.
  20. orangeman
    Tonight Ruck will race the 100m free final and then have the 200m back SF two races later. She was only 14th in the prelims, I wonder if she'll drop it to get ready for the last two relays.
  21. orangeman
    Oleksiak does it!!! Bronze!
  22. orangeman
    Yes.
  23. orangeman
    4th on the 3rd leg.
  24. orangeman
    Tell that to Trevor Noah.
  25. orangeman
    Finished second in his heat, going to the finals tomorrow!
