  1. Πιστεύω είναι πολύ νωρίς ακόμα για να ξέρουμε πως θα εξελιχθούν οι καταστάσεις. Το πόλο θα είναι σίγουρα ανταγωνιστικό και ελπίζω επιτέλους να καταφέρουν και οι γυναίκες να βρεθούν στην τελική φάση. Αν γίνει αυτό, όλα είναι πιθανά. Το ότι οι Ολυμπιονίκες μας είναι σε καλές ηλικίες είναι σίγουρα θετικό, αλλά όλοι τους είναι πολύ πιθανό να έχουν αυξημένο ανταγωνισμό. Χρειάζεται μία συνολικότερη προσπάθεια και να προσπαθήσουμε να μεγαλώσουμε λίγο την ομάδα μας, ίσως με κάποιο ομαδικό παραπάνω. Η φετινή αποστολή ήταν η μικρότερη από το 1992, ασχέτως αν τα πήγε αρκετά καλά (και εγώ είμαι ευχαριστημένος από τα μετάλλια και τα περισσότερα πλασαρίσματα) και ήταν πολύ ποιοτική, θεωρώ πως πρέπει να κινούμαστε σε μεγαλύτερα νούμερα, τριψήφια.
  2. The new president of the federation (used to be a teammate of Vlachos) said that there is an issue for national coaches that coach clubs. I think all the minor national teams (with many medals) changed their coaches for that reason and since Vlachos is coaching Olympiakos there is a problem. I hear that there is a huge proposal from the national federation to Vlachos to renew, but only if he decides to leave Olympiakos
  3. Yes, you are right about Nikolaidis. It is a matter of schedule. The only sure thing that happens in the last days every time is team sports, and that's why usually we don't have medal chances
  4. I think with the exception of the 2004 Olympics that never happened. Only when there were Marathon runners, but they also didn't had any real medal chance
  5. I see in the schedule that the game Greece-Serbia is the very last one of the Games. So everyone will be watching. Go Greece!
  6. As always I am a bit nostalgic every final day of each Games, and therefor I try to watch as much of the games as possible and then I rest. I hate watching replays after the closing ceremony, I need to have at least one year off before I watch them again. Anyway, I am really happy to see that the very ultimate game of the whole competition is the Water Polo men's final between Greece and Serbia (which is the only final of men for team sports in the last day). So the whole planet (at least those feeling the same nostalgic like me, trying to live every moment of the Games till the end) will tune in to watch Greece playing the most important game of our history in water polo. That's pretty good feeling! Go Greece!
  7. Greece faces serious troubles with bushfires, last night was horrible. Greek captain Fountoulis, in his post-game interview said: "I want to say sorry (to apologise) to all Greeks for our joy" I think it is one of the best comments ever said after such a historic moment during such a disastrous situation.
  8. Stefanos Ntouskos said before the Games that he considered early retirement (he is 24) because he is studying (medicine I think) and he doesn't have real help, he cannot work like a professional, as other athletes from the other countries do. So he is quite an example, and hopefully he will keep fighting with more support now. Fantastic race!!! We are on the medal table at last!
  9. Greek Tzortzakis is in the first group and unfortunately Greek broadcaster do not show the race (I think they will air only the end of the race). Is it too early to say that he is going for something special? I don't know much abour Cycling
  10. Good work, this is how in a way I had it on my mind. Bravo for the whole work. I am really excited to see how this will be unfolded. All sports, each position matters!!! I like the proposals you make about the pointing system, it is a good idea!
  11. Shouldnt be shorter in time the whole parade since not all but few of the athletes of each country are there?
  12. Greek Stefanos Ntouskos seemed in a pretty good shape in his first race. He had the chance for an easy race, to get more familiar with the venue and to hold up his power for the next races. Hopefully he will have the same chance on Sunday, and then to give his all in the last two races. I understand that the fact that he won easily, or that he had the second best time of all qualifiers is not a legit sign that he is going for a medal, but who knows? For whoever watched the shape he was in, and how with few ropes gaining more meters, maybe we have a good shot here for a medal.
