  1. We've seen many cases of doping from China and Russia, so they are the ones responsible for tarnishing their own images.
  2. Australia upset the US in a relay event aga... Oops, it was Great Britain this time.
  3. According to our commentator on Brazilian TV (and Wikipedia), Litherland has both Japanese and New Zealander descent. He finished ahead of a New Zealander and behind a Japanese here. EDIT: Joshi beat me.
  4. Is Pilato the youngest ever medalist at the World Aquatics Championships? It would be cool to have the youngest (Pilato) and the oldest (Nicholas Santos) in the same year.
  5. Huge surprises today. What an exciting last day for the championships!
  6. She does because she is still part of the team officially. Well, this went a lot better than I had expected. Great result considering all the drama that has happened so far. Now I want a medal for Dominici and Magistrati. I hope they can achieve one.
  7. The performances have been terrible so far. It's not a problem with the scoring system, it's a problem with the gymnasts themselves.
  8. The Cubans don't look healthy. They have been forced beyond their limits and their bodies are crumbling. Poor girls. Only Brazil can beat Argentina now. I expect 156 or more for Brazil, but 3 falls would be enough to finish below Argentina. It could be close, very close.
  9. Her reaction was touching when her score came up. Very nice result.
  10. Huge surprise: Jamaica leads beam. NO ONE expected her to be first on beam after the first subdivision.
  11. Argentina probably blew their chances on beam. They had to count a fall in every single routine. I think Brazil and even maybe Cuba can beat Argentina's total score.
  12. Oh, so no medal for us at all. Argentina, Mexico and Cuba will battle it out for the bronze medal. I think Argentina will take it.
  13. Argentina with big scores on floor and Canada with very low scores on beam. I think Argentina can realistically beat Brazil and even get the bronze medal if they repeat this level of performances on the other apparatus.
  14. This is one of the most outrageous things I've seen in my life. The Brazilian did not deserve a medal at all. The Paraguayan deserved it. I'm really frustrated here. Poor guy.
  15. Well deserved bronze medal for Ecuador on women's artistic roller skating. And Brazil got the gold medal for the first time.
  16. Oh, I knew there was something wrong. LOL.
  17. Very surprising gold medal for Peru. Amazing result!
  18. You could say that about other events as well. Those 200 m events are all the same, in my opinion. I want to see who goes fastest, not who goes lap after lap after lap. I know relays are basically lap after lap, but they are more exciting because teams are constantly changing swimmers, but of course everyone has a different opinion. I can't stand 400 m events or beyond.
  19. I disagree. I think it's important to have more team events in traditionally individual sports because this fosters partnership between athletes in the same nation. They are a team, not rivals, and this makes a huge difference. The more events we have like this, the more they will act, train and compete as a team. Besides, there's nothing wrong with providing more medal chances to the best programs in the world. I wish we had more team events in artistic gymnastics, for example.
  20. France! What a surprise! And it seems like Russia just can't get a medal in mixed relay at the Aquatic Championships.
  21. I'm intrigued by the language. Hebrew and Arabic are very complex and I love unorthodox languages. But I guess my brain can't respond anymore after many years of Japanese classes. I've reached my limit.
  22. I appreciate effort. I don't appreciate Israel. At all. I'm biased, I know.
  23. When you finish sixth and seventh, there's not much to celebrate, actually.
