Thank you for describing my nightmare.

I am not a fan of talking about our medal chances (I feel like I will jinx them ). But anyway, this should be for Croatia. Athletics 1-2 Boxing 0-1 Handball 1? Rowing 1-2 Sailling 1-2 Shooting 1-2 Taekwondo 0-2 Water Polo 1 I guess it could go very well in terms of medal, but that's all I'm going to say.

Looks like there is still no Kristel Vourna. I wonder if they took away her quota once again.

Woohoo, looks like FINA made new updates. http://fina.org/sites/default/files/men_final_4.pdf http://fina.org/sites/default/files/women_final_3.pdf I noticed that was added in men's 200m I.M. Don't know if there are other changes.

Looks like nobody can publish the exact entry list these days...

Interesting, but Germany has already decided to use the same athlete in women's K1 200m and 500m according to Wiki, so I guess they will be looking for another nation. I think that will be Belarus (5th in C Final at the Worlds, talk about reallocations ). ICF has it all. The worst qualification system, the worst public relations...

It's both 8 and 10 for me. Will watch football only on the first two days, it's a nice Olympic tradition really.

Looks like they really want to learn that course.

I have put Rio schedule on page one. It will get updated as more detailed schedules get published.

And how do you distinguish the Dutch face?

Looks like such personalizations are popular.

Looks like the mess about Canadian dressage selections is still not over. Remember, the story was that Canadian judge Elizabeth McMullen gave higer scores to Megan Lane (and Chris von Martels) so that they can overtake Karen Pavicic in Olympic selection rankings. Karen finished behind Megan in selection rankings by the tiniest of margins. http://www.dressage-news.com/?p=37401 My comment: That cow should be banned forever!

It starts at 20:00 Brazil time apparently, so you can still watch all of it. James Bond, studio and ceremony. Our broadcaster also put 1:00 as the start time.

Why would you want to see the spoilers?

Detailed schedule available here.

Hm, I guess 19:15 could be the time when the stadium is opened for spectators. Not sure.

According to this, ceremony starts at 19:15 Brazil time. That's 00:15 CET and 01:15 in Estonia.

I don't see them changing the decision. They banned them and that was upheld by CAS. Don't see why IOC not doing the same would make IAAF change their mind.

Marshall Islands went a step further and made us a video.

Looks like it isn't late.
