Wow, just wow, what a final

Ooooooooh booy Christoph Harting what a sick sick throw

This, but change Kupper for Jasinski

Kupper, what a moment to show your best throw

Milanov out, I missed that

If being realistic, surely you didn't expect much more than 1-2 medals..? Or do you mean something like us and our swimming? --> in Rio we didn't expect more than 1 medal or so, which looking at past years just shows how much of a mess our swimming has become

Wait what, Martin didn't win?

OlympicIRL's fault

Not the best tactics from Hoogerland, but damn, Gregory "Gorilla" Baugé was fantastic

Wall riding like a boss https://streamable.com/xsny

Damir Martin what a win

I think she's going for BMX gold at the next X-Games in vert or street or something

Jesus Cueff, thank you for screwing up that entire heat It's a miracle how Van Riessen managed to not fly out into the crowd

People on Dutch forums are getting angry about this pace maker

Judging by the atmosphere in some of the venues apparently, but this atrocity the pace maker is riding on is just pathetic.

What the hell, what kind of stupid completely quiet thing is this pace maker riding on?

So it really seems like a thing for non-Brazilians.. Maybe for next Olympics they should just have cheaper tickets, so that also on TV it actually looks mostly full instead of there being a ton of empty seats. Of all nations I had expected the Olympics in Brazil to be the most "full of fire" (don't really know how else to describe it), so maybe the second week will get better And yes, the stands definitely should have fewer seats, especially the stadiums. It's always better to have a full 20k stadium than a 50k stadium with 30k people in it But well, IOC mostly cares about the money I guess, not really about how full it all looks. And don't get me wrong, in terms of sports, these Games are fantastic so far

Measuring in ten thousandths of a second is impossible with current measuring accuracy, since you'd also need to be 100% sure that the pool has the exact same length of all sides, correct to the 0,0001 millimeter or something and that's just not possible. There has been quite a lot of research on how accurate timing can be, because timing with more numbers behind the comma doesn't automatically make it more fair.

Blume winning gold would be a welcome treat

Come on Inge, an Olympic final a few months after hearing you've got cancer would be amazing.

Dear Lord

I remember being at the world champs in Barcelona in 2013 and cheering for him, because "cool, a decent swimmer from Singapore, let's cheer for him"

I expected a whole lot more of Chand considering those 2015 hyperandrogenism rules..
