Hello, cheering for the Astros. As far as I give a rat's ass about who wins the 'World' Series. Not going to go all 'omg rashish gesture now I hate them hurdur' on them.

Ajax might have been screwed by the VAR in their first half cancelled goal. Later, clearer replays show the ball had already left Ziyech's (Ajax) foot quite clearly at the deciding offside moment, but when the ball was still 'leaving' the foot, it wasn't offside yet. It was very, very close, but pretty much impossible to have a clear enough view to turn around a decision made on the field and cancel the goal.

Luxembourg is actually better than several nations around them, but their main guys are too focused on the big races instead of the races where lesser nations easily score points with cyclists who are a few levels behind Jungels, Drucker and Gastauer.

I mean it's just totally regular. Fine, like probably a thousand other models.

I'm sure nobody saw every professional athlete ever, yet we all have our favorites

I don't have much against it, but it seems like just a totally average, completely not special car. Which is fine, but no reason for a hype.

"But they have Grand Tour riders!"

Or both!

Flower of Scotland, especially when played with bagpipes and sung by thousands of people (like during some medal ceremonies in Glasgow 20something), is one of the best pieces of music I've heard

Why would your average German want to buy a Golf? That's like making a hype over the new Nokia 3310 model.

Surely there are more schoolgirls available?

Or they made it invisible as to avoid spoilers

We lose an, at the very least, potential outsider in favor of someone who is forever away. Then again, we all know the Olympics isn't the strongest competition in most sports.

Oh no, so unfair. Oh my gosh. Always against the Russians.

I just don't care much about skateboarding, I have much more attention for your MTB updates

She did drive a 4-man sled in the World Cup, like Elana Meyers Taylor, although that wasn't particularly impressive in terms of her driving skills, mostly hitting every possible wall.

Not everyone gets the peak right every time.

Well that sucks so bad. So a legitimate medal contender will be kicked out and replaced by someone who will finish 5+ minutes behind, 'because continents'. IOC, you suck balls.

You mean they'll replace Luxembourg's second time trial rider or won't LUX have any? Surely that can't be true?

Well, I'm in.

Will someone keep track of the number of transfers someone has made?

Finish of the pursuit in São Carlos, where @brunamoura beat Maria Cecilia Dominguez of Argentina after an insane race. Started twenty seconds behind, closed the gap on the climbs in the first kilometer, opened a gap on the big climb that followed, but had to slow down and Dominguez came back. She went straight into the Argentinian's back for the second-to-last straight, which goes slightly uphill but, more importantly, had a strong headwind. Opened the sprint a tiny bit too early, but then again, it turned out perfectly. The race should not have been 50 meters longer, Dominguez was closing in fast in the last 50 meters or so.

And then a boycot, followed by skateboarding being removed already. Done.

I'm at least hoping for a combination of both, and not some sort of regular 'cool' t-shirt with jeans down to their knees. At least try to make it look a little bit Olympic..
