Having a bit difficult to take the Oklahama discus throws seriously. 

Ah yes, today was the dreaded "IOC news day"... As usual there is barely anything to smile at.
 
Men's boxing losing more weights is absurd, especially since their "gender parity agenda" is out of the window after switching the football.
 
Swimming getting the 50s in an already bloated program was sadly inevitable. With US and AUS the next hosts, I'm surprised swimming doesn't have 100 events to begin with. 
 
All the new mixed stuff is Frankenstein as usual, especially the tennis and gymnastics. No one asks for these, even within these sports, but the IOC only care about "Let's have all the stars interact more with each other for maximum TV talk and social engagement, who cares about sporting traditions".
 
Climbing splitting the events is a positive, though for me personally I didn't see any problem with the combined. It actually showed the true overall best climbers, while now the specialists in one event will get more chances to sneak a medal.
 
Host sports with 6 teams are a joke and shouldn't award medals! Have them as exhibition events with a trophy etc. for the winners, but shouldn't be included in the medal table. But what do I know.
 
And still no news on the most important thing for me - extending the Games to 3 full weeks. Things will be crammed, crammed again..

Wonderful news for Sarah Sjöström! 50 fly becomes olympic!

Reminds me of how my team missed out on what probably would have been a medal at this years Swedish nationals. I made a runback triple. Noone saw anything and everyone agreed also After Watching the recording, that it didn't made any difference. We could have been silent but my team mate was honest and Said he probsbly made a very small touch, and all 3 Stones were replaced and we lost because of that.

They could to the opposite as the Swedish bandy players did when they participated in ice hockey at olympics 1924 without hockey experience because noone played ice hockey in sweden back then

Podium for Vonn. 

Joensuu wins the sprint cup by a big margin with only one podium this season and no wins 

After 12 games and 2 draw shots per game, this is the final standings in the DSC, three teams on the same millimeter average:

First world cup victory for Fak since 2015

Maja Said she cried during the race after she heard who won, when she still had some kilometers remaining😄

Coincidentally today I overheard Kevin Bolger talk with someone about it, they were all pretty disappointed at seeing the tiny start list today and felt they should speak with the athletes about whether or not they actually wanted a 50k.
 
I also heard him talk about the insane noise around the track yesterday, he said it felt like his ears were popping constantly and that Maja Dahlqvist's first words to him this morning were "I'm scared"  

Johaug would probably only have one individual medal from this championship without the fall from Sundling/Weng in Skiathlon and this.

Frida Karlsson finally wins individual WCh gold medal

Agree about the worlds but why would it be less important in the Olympics, the event with the highest status?

Because with the Olympics you are catering for a general audience who don't understand the technicalities.

First in Swedish, but the group are from Finland (the Swedish speaking part)😄
 
A bit refreshing to send something different to the regular radio pop hit actually

What an athlete Tove Alexandersson. Finally she can compete for olympic medals after her previous 21 world championship golds in orienteering, 10 WCH golds in ski orienteering, 1 WCH gold in sky running and 1 previous gold in skimo.

Yes. Norwegian sounds like a swede that is unreasonably happy that you can´t take it seriously. And Danish sounds like a drunk swede with a potato stuck in their throat.

The Swedish language is probably very similar to Norwegian?

Karlsson is an sensational beautiful woman
