And he went on to win the big tour.

Yes. The question was if those are blocked as well.

Yes No Yes

It's blocked here too.

Interesting, I've read that alcohol and cannabidiol (cannabis compound) have been removed from WADA prohibited substances list for 2018.

Wait till bestmen hears about this.

It's hladno piće, but yeah. I remember that reference from my high school trip to Prague. Guide told us that one of the previous years couple of girls went to a cafe, but were told that they can't order just drinks (I don't remember why was that). In any case, they stood up and started leaving the cafe when one of them said: "Ne možeš ovdje ni piće naručit" ("You can't even order a drink here"). That sentence caused a lot of commotion among the staff in the cafe.

But Heerenveen does have an altitude.

Victory for the Netherlands might be overreaction, but they haven't won anything since 2015.

Oh Canada... The only team that finished on 0 on day 1. But looks like they'll finish last today.

It's so early in the season for such a "milestone" time. Someone is ready to defend his Olympic title...

After one hour and 45 minutes we are on.

Guess what? Reflector started working. Now they are in a rush to set the old course back.

FEI tv is the only one I know. Looks like they decided to set a new course, in the parts of the arena covered by reflectors. I wonder if it will start before midnight.

Interesting commentating job for Jess Kurten and Phil Ghazala though. They are talking non-stop for the last 57 minutes, and yet nothing is happening.

Yeah, Italy was incredibly unlucky too. Zorzi and Bichocchi went clear. Chimirri needed 0/4 or even 8 penalties to ensure qualification, but he ended up getting 12 (all 3 fences down in the last part of the course). Dropping them from potential 1st place to 10th. Italy was however missing De Luca and Marziani here.

48 minutes of delay, and counting.

What a bad organization in Barcelona. We are on 30+ minutes delay because reflectors won't turn on. Hopefully FEI will finally consider cancelling Barcelona's apparent unlimited subscription to hosting NC finals... They hosted every single edition since the introduction.

Nations Cup final round about to begin. . European champions from were back to bad luck in the qualifying round. They were tied on 8 penalties with Belgium, Sweden and Switzerland, but they are the ones whose total combined time was the slowest... I mean, it's really unbelieveable in how many ways the Irish show jumping team gets unlucky @OlympicIRL. Yesterday's challenger round (open for teams that failed to qualify for the big final) was surprisingly won by (!), 2nd, 3rd.

I am so gonna watch Weightlifting Worlds more than ever before. This could be intriguing, maybe a couple of medals for Oceania.

I think his name might be Mr. Sarcasm.

Yes, obviously. All Swiss speak all those languages. Both of her parents are Swiss though. And she is literally performing once in 4 years apparently, much more seldom than those US gymnasts. Only championships results after Sochi were second to last place at the Four Continents in 2015 and 30th place at Worlds last season...

Oh, then I remembered it wrong. I've read that she barely speaks Portuguese.

And Williams trolls herself onto another Olympics after being nowhere in the last few years... Fun fact, she doesn't speak a word of Portuguese.

Ouch, 4 falls for Gjersem. She won't be going to her second Olympics.
