Our women continue to fly out there. Caldwell qualifies second for the final, first among mere mortals.

Despite the shock win over the USA, Canada will still likely need to win against both Mexico and Italy to make it to the quarters. Tough road. Tough group. Maybe just a win against Mexico will be enough...strange results so far make it unsure.
-
Congratulations. Canada came out strong, but made some errors which cost them. Close call in the first set could have changed things, but oh well. Not saying it was the wrong call, just saying it was oh so close.
-
There were some close calls at crucial points in the game, with the calls going Spain's way. As I said, there were no replays so I'm not sure if the wrong call was made. But at least one of them looked to be ridiculous and right in front of the ump. I would like to see replays, but can't seem to find them. Oh well, hopefully they can refocus for the bronze game tomorrow.

Nestor says in 25 years of tennis, this was the worst judged game he's ever had. Not happy.

Well now it seems like the best they'll do is bronze. GB looks unbeatable (again). -

Great result for Ellie Black from Canada! Just a third of a point off the podium! -
Great result for Ellie Black in gymnastics! 5th, just a third of a point off the podium. So close! (though gymnastics is a sport were unknowns rarely win...for some reason).
-
There were three close calls on crucial points, all went to Spain. There were no replays so I'm not sure if they were the wrong calls, but one of them was obviously wrong and it was right in front of the ump. Nestor really wasn't happy.
-
Well, our guys will go for bronze tomorrow. Some very 'interesting' calls on the court unfortunately. I'm getting pretty sick of Canada being the nice guys always screwed over by the officials because they can. Oh well. Also, our lady cyclists looked really discombobulated today.

Well, the Canadians looked like crap. -
I'm just watching the tennis feed on the CBC website, but they didn't show any replays (very frustrating). Were there better replays on another stream? Because at least 2 of those looked very...interesting. One of them, unless the ump missed it and just guessed, was a very very suspicious call.
-
.I don't have a replay on my feed, but that's three crucial points that were very close with all three going Spain's way. Not saying they were the wrong calls, but man. Can't catch a break.
-
Alright, alright. Still in this thing. I obviously spoke too soon (happily).
-
Wow, I'd like to see the replay, but on my computer it looked waaaay in. Ridiculous, right in front of the ump, too.
-
Well, that was fun. Nestor and Pospisil came out strong, but faltered later on. Still a chance at bronze. EDIT: Okay, they're putting up a fight still.
-
The Canadian golfer's caddy is a former hockey player. Because of course.
-
A great sign for this sport is that five continents were represented in both semis (Europe, Africa, Oceania, North America and Asia). And Argentina isn't too far back, either. Much better global diversity than many other team sports.
-
No. No rest for Nadal. Don't even allow him to sit down.
-
Maybe because Nadal just finished his singles match, too? I'm not that familiar with tennis.
-
Apparently Nestor/Pospsil semi in tennis is scheduled for 2:15pm EST.

I took a 5 week trip up the East coast of Australia a few years ago in a camper van. Beautiful country, lovely people. A bit expensive, though. Had so much fun, though.
-
Awwww, thanks. Since the Aussies are the biggest rivals to the Americans in the pool, I often root for them, too.
-
And now Byron (the commentator) just apologized again. You know you're Canadian when you keep saying sorry.
-
I'd say that's a statement by Canada's women's eights.
