  1. Shocking ending for Ware. Even with the miss on round 4, she just needed to land on her head in round 5 to make the final. On the flip side, as James said, Abel looked great, only 5 pts behind the 2nd Chinese diver. Top 3 looked much better than everyone else.
  2. Kind of weird that Rio was a surprise performance by Canada's swim team while this time we expected medals and they could end up with less, or at best the same. But really it was mostly Oleksiak in 2016 while this time it's more spread out. Just wish the mens side would develop more.
  3. Hayden misses 50 final by .04. Was hoping he'd be there just to give all us old guys hope.
  4. Masse, (Pickrem?), MacNeil and Oleksiak are going to be a treat tomorrow in the relay.
  5. Kylie Masse with another silver! Great race, going out strong. Can't wait to see her again in the relay tomorrow with MacNeil and Oleksiak!
  6. The whole rugby 7s situation is bizarre.
  7. Not unheard of, but losing so badly to them and then to France to miss the quarterfinals is unacceptable. They're basically ranked 3rd.
  8. Canadian women qualify the relay first, men sneak in 8th for theirs. Good news for both.
  9. Damn, thought Mo had that for a minute.
  10. Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! Bakers you have 5 minutes left! I want to murder everyone involved in that commercial.
  11. Six throws by the Canadians in shot put, 5 fouls.
  12. It says three misses and No Mark.
  13. Wait, what happened to Crew in the shotput?
  14. Three straight semi finals for Canada at the Olympics. Either the Dutch or Americans next. Hopefully there are no Norwegian refs this time.
  15. Holy crap two huge saves! But ref calling it back??? Nope! Holy crap, totally thought they were done. Amazing goaltending! WOW!
  16. Seeing the swimmer from Palau gives me hope to keep trying for the Olympics!
  17. I'd say the other 4th that hurt was 10m synchro diving. They scored better than the Italians on every dive but one and were off the podium by half a point.
  18. I think he means the mens team in their group.
  19. So close for Rosie. Obviously nothing against any of the athletes, but just as a Canadian sports fan I can't take any more of these 4ths.
  20. Just catching up now that I'm checked into the hotel. Amazing gold for the W8!! I knew they looked good in the heats, but I never imagined a gold. What a thrilling race! Pretty much everything else looks to be a disappointment. Can't believe rugby. Wow. Just wow. Consistently on the podium in the rugby series, and to not even make the quarters. That's a complete blow up. At least Masse and Ruck made the final for tonight.
  21. Well, I'll be on a flight tomorrow morning, so I'll miss quite a few things. Hoping Penny can do great things again. Hoping the W8 can compete. Hoping others can do their best to get to the next step. Hoping my flight won't be delayed like they usually are in China. Hoping the "outbreak of covid" (1 confirmed case) doesn't shut down the city I'm currently in any more than it has today so I can leave. Hoping for a lot of things here.
  22. I'm thinking Ruck and Masse just swam the race before, Liendo just a few minutes before that, want to keep Penny ready for the 100 tomorrow morning, Pickrem not up to her best this meet so far. I'm sure they looked at how the other teams were finishing and decided to concentrate on other races.
