  1. Yeah, Warner, Uibo and Shkurenov are all pretty even in the remaining events and tied (or pretty much tied) right now. It'll be an interesting finish for sure.
  2. Kaul is only favoured to win by 45 points right now, but Warner has thrown javelin much better this season than they predict (using his PB overall score). So anything can happen.
  3. There always seems to be someone who steps up against Warner. He had a disappointing discus and pv. But who knows how it'll end.
  4. Whenever heptathlon is going on, they show it all. We're lucky to get a highlight of decathlon or any other event. It's odd to me that they choose heptathlon over any other to showcase every time.
  5. Nedow squeaks into the shotput final on his last throw!
  6. Lepage just dropped out of contention for bronze with discus.
  7. In all seriousness, Warner needed to crush that 400m to have any chance at beating Mayer. He'll need a great hurdles tomorrow because javelin, discus and pole vault will hurt him.
  8. Canada 1-2 in the decathlon after the first day. I, for one, say they've done enough. Cancel the rest of the events, give the guys a break tomorrow.
  9. Less than 100 points between 1-5 after four events in the decathlon.
  10. Sage Watson with a Canadian record to make the final!
  11. I don't have a deep knowledge, but: Warner: Good at running, including field events like long jump. Weakness is throwing events. Mayer: Good at throwing and pole vault. Not terrible at running. I'm not very familiar with LePage, but judging by his build I would assume similar to Warner, but maybe problems with the hurdles and stronger at high jump? The issue, as a Canadian fan, is that you can get a lot more points with a good throw than you can with a strong run.
  12. Wow, De Grasse's wiki is already updated.
  13. DE GRASSE! Duplicates his medals from Rio, so far.
  14. It's an extreme right-wing talking point, and frankly I'm disturbed that such views are being expressed on a site that's supposed to represent sport at its highest level. These people need to leave their politics at home and stop trying to tell me what Canada is and who a Canadian is.
  15. So my grandparents weren't Canadian? Like I said, Canada is a nation of immigrants. Don't tell me what my country is and isn't, and who is part of it and who isn't.
  16. Mohammed Ahmed is just as Canadian as me. We are a nation of immigrants, including my family. The topic is done.
  17. You should come visit Canada. Lots of Ahmeds here.
  18. I went to an F1 race a year ago with a friend. I'm not into motosports and found it pretty boring but I tried to be positive for my friend who was a huge F1 fan his whole life and was excited to see his first race live. After the event he turned to me and said, "That was one of the most boring things I've ever seen". I guess it's better on TV? Still not my cup of tea, personally. Although growing up in Montreal, the party atmosphere on Grand Prix weekend was always fun.
  19. He finished 4th in Rio, and may have gotten the bronze if he wasn't shoved by the Japanese walker. He looked real good in the last 15 km last night, and said that the conditions weren't even that bad (at least not dangerous).
