  1. Every event has a few specialists at least, but that doesn't mean it's really different enough to warrant such a huge number of realistically available medals per swimmer.
  2. Even more controversial: instead of leaving 100 and 800, I'd go for leaving 50 but throwing out 100 in favor of 200. And keep 1500 instead of 800. That way you have a true sprint, a true middle event and a true distance event.
  3. New gold for these guys we've been watching all week, alright. WR and all. On to the next sport please
  4. Theoretically? We could do with one breaststroke, one backstroke and one butterfly event, for starters.
  5. Anyone else feel like so many of these medals are sort of forgettable, since mostly we're watching the same names fight for them the whole week (unlike in athletes, where you see totally different names in most events)? I mean, I've watched basically every final live and with focus but I had already forgotten McKeon actually took the 50 + 100 freestyle double
  6. Hurray for swimming's opportunities
  7. Campbell with some major risk there to throw it all away
  8. Sure, but it's still not as lobsided as it was in Rio (with the Netherlands only being there because of the two open water golds, which one really shouldn't count too much - if at all - in this context)
  9. Non-gold medals like this are so much better than gold medals like Dressel's.
  10. The 'bright' side though is that USA is much less dominant than four years ago.
  11. He has been sick though, to be fair (mono, if I'm not mistaken).
  12. What a sprint again for Finke
  13. Awesome 1500m final
  14. Jacco Verhaeren is gone and they're flying
  15. 4th place for Kromowidjojo Netherlands taking a stronger step to being one of the 10 countries who are all number one in collecting 4th places! Sjöström taking silver after her broken elbow earlier this year, that is impressive
  16. Also, I feel like you've had the same UI for years, but this is the first time I see your new one (and it's an awesome one!) and somehow I already can't remember what your old one was Mind is weird
  17. Lottery attempt for the women! 1. Blume 2. Weitzeil 3. McKeon
  18. Dressel wins again, but if only he had broken Cielo's WR
  19. 1. Proud 2. Andrew 3. Fratus
  20. Time to open the last finals session with the double lottery
  21. with an average finishing position of 4th so far in these Olympics? I'd sign for that!
  22. Always good to see some players really do care about the Olympics Excellent winner! And cool women's doubles bronze! On the other hand, I'm so sad for Nina Stojanovic, her once in a lifetime chance for something big being thrown away like this
  23. Dutch commentator said this wasn't good for Germany (but more like 'it's not helping them'), how costly was this mistake in terms of the medal fight?
  24. Is cross-country held as a seperate event (on high level of course) somewhere? I like watching this, but it's much less fun for me to follow knowing that a part of the results also comes from the dressage
