Oh, I heard the speaker say "Bart Swings" so I assumed they were naming the flag bearer (which I missed because I am also watching football) Well, he's there anyway

I hope Peter Michael carries the New Zealand flag, my favourite speed skater

Bart Swings carrying the Belgian flag, speed skating represent I trained in a shirt I got from crowdfunding his Sochi campaign today

in b4 teams missing 'because we have a competition tomorrow'

In case someone missed it, the parade of nations has started

They should have covered the stands next to the 'podium' (I think they didn't allow people to sit there) so you don't see them, but apart from that, it's really not that bad in terms of attendance

This makes me think about Belgian children's TV serie 'Kabouter Plop' https://www.google.nl/search?q=kabouter+plop&safe=off&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiC977WrpjVAhUMZlAKHbH5BN0Q_AUICigB&biw=1920&bih=974

Of the English part?

The sun high in the sky feels completely normal to me in this time of year as well

There's an article about tug of war in one of the main Dutch news papers, I didn't expect there to be any word at all about the World Games in any big news paper/website

I really hope I can find a Sport1 livestream, they're showing so much If anyone found one, I'd say we share it here?

A fail in diving or a refusal in equestrian or something is one thing, but I wouldn't wanna be the guy who's supposed to be saved by the worst team of the life saving competition

Sadly for the Netherlands it means they can't participate, because there's no decent second woman here, but 2 men + 2 women is indeed a whole lot better than 2 men and 1 woman

The fight goes on between 'team mates' Sharon van Rouwendaal and Aurelie Muller. Last year Muller got DQ'ed at the Olympics for pushing one of the Italian women under water, followed by Van Rouwendaal winning gold, which lead to frustrated Muller not speaking a single word to her (they train together with Philippe Lucas) for a year. This time at the 5km, Muller pushed Van Rouwendaal and Cunha in the fight for 2nd, 3rd and 4th, but this time it didn't lead to a DQ for Muller. To use Van Rouwendaal's exact words: "It's never going to be alright between us anymore, what an incredible bitch she is." http://www.telegraaf.nl/telesport/28695267/__Van_Rouwendaal_na__bitch_fight____Wat_een_trut_is_dat_wijf___.html Gotta love a good rivalry.

8km to go in La Course

That's a lot

Wow, Brazil is on freaking fire (well not literally since there's snow in Brazil, but you know, 1-2-3-kind of on fire )

Col d'Izoard, another one of the beautiful historic climbs with millions of stories Tomorrow La Course, the women's race, will have it's first stage finishing there by the way. Slowly the women's part of the Tour de France is getting a little, little bit serious

Damn, should have known this before the championships started to make some good money
