Summer's first Olympic medal! First of many! -
Women's Football Tournament at the Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024

As long as those 23 doping Chinese swimmers are allowed to compete! I'm all for punishment, but it took over 2 years to dq a Russian who tested positive at the Games, but only a few days to decide this. Double standards for big and small countries. -
If Chalmers didn't swim out of his mind on the last leg in Tokyo, Canada would have snagged a surprise bronze. Different guys, but hope they can compete.

I think the penalty for Canada is too harsh and too quick. Took 2+ years to DQ a Russian doper. 23 Chinese dopers allowed to compete in Paris.

It's going to be tough for him to make the all around final, too. But we'll see.

No men will qualify for an apparatus final. On a positive note, it looks good for the team to qualify for the final.

I lived in Korea for several years, and hearing the Korean women squeal the whole match was like nails on a chalkboard. PTSD.

Well, good run by Arfa.
-
Arfa into the 1/8 in fencing!

Great start by Arfa in fencing!

Yes, but that's not what I meant. I just meant the US team may not perform as strongly as they look on paper because many of their swimmers (particularly Huske and Walsh) have other races, too. Meaning, it's not all in a vacuum and it'll depend on how everyone handles the load and the pressure.

The only way I see them putting McIntosh in is if they feel like 3 of the girls are on form and the fourth is not. They'd have to believe they've got a fair shot at a medal but need a little more umph. Honestly, I think the Chinese are a bit of a wild card now that they're being tested consistently and (hopefully) fairly. Lots of US girls have busy schedules, too.

Canada + China is a lot, plus three other countries. This sort of sounded like a good idea in the beginning, but I hope the athletes don't just get smushed together. The parade of nations is my favourite part. Full disclosure, I will not be able to watch live. I stupidly agreed to play in my nephew's parents vs kids paintball event this afternoon. Bad decisions, I've made a few.

I have not.

I think it's the correct choice for her and the team.

Embarrassing and stupid. -
This is embarrassing and stupid. Such a taint on what was a proud legacy. I just hope Sinclair escapes clean. This also puts a damper on Canada's success at the recent Copa Americana. It's all just a lie now.
-
That was very entertaining.
-
The plot thickens...
-
Yay!
-
That's good.
-
Pretty sick of the commentator talking about how bad NZ is, how they're not getting points, won't get out of the group. It's 1-1. Calm down.
-
Well, that's good.
-
Sigh.
-
Don't dare them!
