  1. Vachon just barely lost gold in weightlifting. Another gold through the fingers. Good performance, nonetheless, for bronze.
  2. Vachon so close to gold in weightlifting. He had the last lift, just lost it. Went 1kg higher than he needed to for gold, have to wonder if that made a difference. Canada will never win another gold, apparently.
  3. Watching the cycling crash again, I still have no idea how the Canadian got DSQ for causing the crash. He was way out in front and the crash happened behind him. Looks like golds will be hard to come by again, just like in Beijing last winter.
  4. Bitterness, but if it was actually done by seeding I think Mitchell would have taken it knowing what she needed to do in the end. Going early probably hurt her. But oh well. See if these ladies can do the same to her in Paris.
  5. I think their point was why weren't the Canadians working together like the Aussies were. The first Canadian went hard early and then just went off. Kind of a waste. I mean, I get it, I'm just on my sofa watching. But it's just the "killer instinct....to get 4th" that we see so often with Canadian athletes.
  6. "I don't understand why Canada isn't trying here!" Me, too, cycling announcers. Me too.
  7. Found the explanation. Guillemette (CAN) DQS for causing the crash. Which, again, I find odd since he was way out in front at the time. I'd have to see a replay, but unfortunately the broadcast left without ever providing one.
  8. One Canadian DNF, he was in the crash and looked injured. The other DSQ, which is confusing because he was in the lead when the crash happened and the race stopped. He's the one that went out with a sprint to get everyone going fast to begin with. I would love an explanation.
  9. That crash looked horrible. Two riders (and bikes) into the crowd. Rider taken off on a stretcher. Canadian rider bloodied and ripped up. Hope everyone is okay.
  10. Damn it. Happy NZ has come out of nowhere to suddenly dominate track cycling! #bitter
  11. The English announcers have been rooting against the Canadians all night. Sort of weird.
  12. Bronze for Canada in weightlifting! (Probably!)
  13. PNG gets away with lifting after the clock had stopped.
  14. Defending Olympic champ, so still very good chance. But Genest missing out is very surprising.
  15. It's nice to get the first fourth out of the way. Now we can just sit back and enjoy the rest.
  16. CBC is very furstrating. 6 channels, none showing three of our girls in the semis in cycling. But we've got cricket and weightlifting!
  17. I intentionally typed that so as to jinx it. YOU'RE WELCOME.
  18. Well, my feed froze right at the gunshot and came back at the end. Thanks, asshats. But hey looks like a great result!
  19. There goes Canada's only chance at a gold here. Just hope it's not a serious injury for Warner.
  20. Does CBC not have playbacks of events? All the finals are at like 3am for me.
  21. I'd love to feel surprised right now, but I'm just numb.
  22. Sarah Mitton finishes 4th due to countbacks in shotput. I'd like to be surprised by another 4th, but I'm just numb now. Great performance anyway.
