@Fly_like_a_don and what are your favourite olympic moments from Indian and International perspective?

@OlympicsFan and what are your favourite olympic moments, from German and International perspective.

I may be offline next few days. So here is what I would like to watch on day 16 Sunday. M marathon (move it back to Tokyo, please!) Last boxing finals M keirin final W handball final - no medals for Poland on Sunday I'm afraid So i hope i could support team NED here ? And then closing ceremony And then day 17 Monday. On Monday i would be sleeping a lot ?

Day 15 SuperHiperSaturday I would like to watch so many things. This is much too much to watch in one day. There were some less entertaining days before but this Saturday really a lot would be going on at the same time. Impossible to see it all live as it would happen. I would have to make my priorities and watch some replays later. Anyway, things to do are: M volleyball final - i hope it would be Poland vs USA. And i hope it would be a really good match. Athletics - firstly W marathon (i wish they could move it back to Tokyo) And The whole evening session. Big chance for a medal for Poland in W 4x400. W High jump (Lasitskene vs Ukrainians vs Kamila Lićwinko). M 1500 (with Marcin Lewandowski?). And all the other events. Last Canoeing finals. W K4 500 is a Chance for a medal for PL, too. In M C1 1000 Tomasz Kaczor was 2nd in Wch 2019 but if the Games would be in 2020 he would miss it due to injury. But he should be ready for 2021. I would watch W C2 500 and M K4 500 as well, but I really think M K4 1000 would be much more interesting. Basketball M final. Is it the first time in the Olympics when a M Gold medal Match would be played before the bronze medal game? Handball M final Equestrian jumping team final Football M final Beach volleyball M final Diving M 10m platform final And in spare time I would support one of my favourite athletes these days in her ind. All-around final in rhythmic gymnastics - Linoy Ashram of Israel

From Polish perspective there was even bigger mishap im the opening ceremony when Polish team entered the stadium. This photo proves that even Putin thinks that Koenigsberg / Kaliningrad should be in Poland these days.

Mickael Delage from FDJ team had a very serious crash Today at Tour de Pologne. It was in downhill and he lost his helmet in the impact. He was taken to the hospital by the helicopter.

Fabio Jakobsen woke up from coma.

Rowing has been running 2000 m for ages and this is good with no stupid change every olympics .

Cape Town, not Capetown. OK, I'll remember that! In Polish it's Kapsztad. Do you really think that Madrid (Spain) is among the poor ones and Budapest (Hungary) is not??? Hmm... Anyway, New York and Budapest would be my no. 4 and 5 proposals for hosting the games. And I wonder what would you watch on day 14 from German and international perspective?

Friday Day 14 I would defenitely watch athletics - whole evening session is very interesting for me. W 1500 (with Sofia Ennaoui?), W Javelin (Maria Andrejczyk?) and 4x100 relays above all. Beach Volleyball W final Boxing M Heavyweight final W football final W handball semis Some track cycling, sports climbing and canoeing (can sb explain to me why they got rid of M K4 1000 and there is M K4 500 instead? This is such a stupid decision. K4 1000 was the best event, full of tactics. And M K4 500 is much less entertaing, this race is just too short).

That a was an entertaining finish. You really don't need 80 kmh downhill finish like yesterday. Bravo Trek Team!

Off- Topic If you could choose a city who could host Summer Olympics in future, what would it be? But you can choose only a City which hasn't been a host yet. For me: CAPETOWN is my first choice. Then Warsaw and Boston.

Yes, I forgot that. Because of this new Mixed relay, 400m ind. finalists will have less time to rest before the relay heats. Like it was in Doha. So I hope 1 or 2 Polish runners will be in ind. Final. But on the other hand, I am worried that this would be too much running for them in so few days. Anyway, it worked well in Doha. Maybe in Tokyo it would work just fine, too. Let's hope they won't get the outside lane in the heats. I don't want to see Sydney-like stumble again. In the final they should get one of the middle lanes, anyway.

Day 13 Thursday Today I would watch volleyball semis above all. Hopefully Poland will make it to the final for the first time since 1976 I would like to watch basketball and handball semis as well And athletics, as always. M 110 hurdles, M 400 and M triple jump finals would be most interesting for me. In M shot put final we could see Michał Haratyk, I hope. Canoeing finals - maybe we would see Poland in Women's C1 200 and K1 500 finals Beach volleyball semis Diving Women's platform final Some track cycling, sports climbing and open water swimming - But there would be a lot of schedulling collisions

Tv replies show that Fabio Jakobsen lost his helmet in the first impact and then hit the ground with his head with no helmet on. And then he might have been hit to the head by FDJ rider bike as well. This is looking terrible.

According to Polish TV Fabio Jakobsen is in artificial coma and intubated. He was taken to the hospital.

The rumours here in PL are somebody died in this accicent. A rider or a man standing behind the barriers. I hope these rumours are false.

Yes, I know. Too downhill. Too dangerous from Pętla Słoneczna to the finish.

It's not only too narrow, it's also too dowhnill. There is too much speed in such a narrow road. I don't remember any stages in TDF or Giro who would have such a downhill straight sprint finish. Too dangerous,

DSQ for a year or two.

This Lotto Jumbo Rider should spend some time in prison for that, imo.

I hope he will and I think he will. He will not repeat the same mistake for the third time.

And another favourite olympic moment. How could I forget that before? Mr. Vladimir Grbic. Sydney 2000.

Day 12 Wednesday Today I would watch: - athletics - M Hammer throw final with Paweł Fajdek as probably biggest chance for Gold for Poland in Tokyo, M 800 final hopefully with Adam Kszczot, W 400 hurdles final with Dalilah Muhammad and Sydney Mclaughlin both in form to beat WR, W 400 semis - who will be faster - Justyna Święty-Ersetic or Lisanne de Witte?, M 110 hurdles powerful semis - equestrian ind. jumping final - But it's coliding with athletics - what an awful scheduling here - cycling track men's sprint - some Polish-Dutch rivalry is possible here - Women's handball quarterfinals - with no Polish team, but I would cheer the Netherlands and France on - beach volleyball men's QFs - maybe a Polish pair will be here - Sky Brown in skateboarding - and last 2kms in open water W swim PS. And I hope there would be a medal for Lebanon - whatever event.
