  1. I’m sure the Libs are waiting to storm the Capital as we speak. Oh no, only the law and order Conservatives do that
  2. Jan Bos also participated in the 2004 Summer Olympics in the team sprint.
  3. If only life was that easy.
  4. Let’s see how he handles the pressure.
  5. Valt op hoe vaak de meest basale informatie (waarvan je mag mag verwachten dat iemand die zijn/haar geld verdient met sportverslaggeving dat weet) ontbreekt. Ik heb uit zelfbescherming weinig NOS gekeken, maar het is toch wel schokkend dat iemand die de technische nummers bij atletiek becommentarieert niet verder komt dan het reproduceren van irrelevante feitjes met af en toe wat gespeelde verwondering en enthousiasme. Veel informatiever om atletiek via Eurosport te volgen (nadeel daar wel de reclames en de oninteressante interviews)
  6. Ook een gevalletje van klok en klepel: zowel Roelfs als eerder Dione De Graaf beweerden dat 34 medailles een record is.
  7. TeamNL has 41 fewer top 8 places than Germany, but wins one medal more.
  8. Wordt Leon Haan per woord en per cliché betaald? Hij heeft i.i.g. geen uit-knop, net als zijn compaan. Commentaar bij sluiting exemplarisch voor niveau van NOS.
  9. The jury revising a score after an appeal is pretty common place and happens at every tournament.
  10. Some of the Italian medals will have beenwon through injuries, illnesses and bad luck of other nations.
  11. The position of Curaçao is explained at the Wikipedia page about the Netherlands Antilles Olympic Committee. The Dutch Wikipedia states that the IOC gave a way out, but that possibility was torpoed by the then PM of the Netherlands Antilles who chose to litigate.
  12. The Water Polo Women winning bronze after a huge deficit scuppers our chances in this race.
  13. This was the 4th game were the Dutch team made a huge come back in the 4th quarter after in some cases a big deficit.
  14. Canada even trailing in the race for most 4th places.
  15. Really don’t understand how Carlin did not get his second yellow card
  16. In Melbourne 2032 we will see finals in the morning sessions. Both in Beijing and Tokyo swimming finals were in the morning. American TV audience?
  17. The Dutch team has a proud history of losing Olympic finals to lesser teams.
  18. Our young 1500 runner Niels Laros had several offers from US Colleges, but decided to stay because the training facilities here were more than sufficient
  19. Non-US swimmers training in the US and winning multiple Olympic medals is nothing new. From a Dutch perspective, Inge De Bruijn comes to mind. She won 4 Olympic golds and 8 medals in 2000/2004, after she started training in the US. Same of course in athletics with many foreign athletes in US colleges. So this can;t be the only explanation.
  20. Remarkable interview with Sifan Hassan on Eurosport NL who was unaware she had been promoted to silver, then Kipcheoge turns up unaware that she had been dq’d.
  21. Waterpolo, Beachvolleybal (v), 3x3 Basketbal, Discuswerpen, Zevenkamp. Bol op de 400 meter horden is wel iets meer dan een buitenkansje.
