I say Greece and Hungary. Sorry @CCB ;-) But we will see. I don't know much about water polo honestly.

Hello, This is my "possible start lists" data. It is very early draft ofc. I don;t have time to make more explenations right now, because it is quite a busy weekend for me. Only one thing - events are made in calendar order. First those which start at day -2, then day -1, then day 0, then day 1 etc, Q means someone who qualified, q is my prediction Have a good day, everyone 21.01.16 TOKYO 2020 QUALI.doc

'i am agree' ??? So you agree or not? ?

They used to be focused. They are not now.

Poland doesn't deserve it, either. I was think ing 36. But now with Tokyo 32, Queensland moves to 36, and we may get 40 if we behave well.

Tokyo is done and dusted. Sorry. I am So angry, sad and disappointed to know that. But it is true. See you in 32

I love it. I would like to see more polls like that here. ?

I hope Polish Flag bearer will be Maja Włoszczowska (2 olympic medals in MTB). But I am afraid it will be Zofia Noceti - Klepacka (olympic medalist in RS:X) , who is the most likely contender for this role these days.

Hello @Makedonas great that you joined is here. What are your biggest medal hopes for Tokyo from Greek perspective? Have a good day

Iga Świątek and Łukasz Kubot will join forces to play Mixed doubles in AO. A rehearsal before the two playing together in Tokyo Olympics.

@EupenM wowowow, congratulations!!!

and here's another one of my fav Czech olympic moments Ales Valenta gold in 2002 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoBnRCeM_5o

@Hipooo thank you for these videos! Never watched Ledecka race with Czech commentary :-) that's great. I haven't heard Spotakova story about Soviet occupation anniversary before, either. And this 30km Torino race was great gold for Katerina Neumannova greeted by her kid at the finish, but also first olympic medal for Justyna Kowalczyk, who DNF 10 km race few days earlier (because she fainted, they say) but in 30km she came back strongly. It turns out - what a-moment that was for both of us.

Probably my favourite olympic moment ever. The biggest olympic sports emotions for me ever. https://youtu.be/h-yrG0deqB8 M high jump final, Atlanta 1996 First, Artur Partyka jumps 237 with such an enormous clearance Then, Charles Austin jumps 239 Although only Silver, this is my fav Polish olympic medal in history. That contest was really something, nothing has been better than that so far.

No live points table after every match? I take part in such a contest for the first time SO i dont know how IT works

I think Tokyo may not be organized this year due to safety and health reasons, (although I really would like it to happen myself) - and then, Tokyo should be awarded 2032 summer games without biding competition, if Japan would like to hold it in 2032. That is obviously my personal opinion and some of you may not agree, it;s alright for me.

New topic. If Tokyo happens, and if you have a chance to be there, and if you are a milionaire and can buy every ticket you want, where would you be on particular days and why? Remember, you - usually - cannot be in 2 places in the same time. And you must have enough time to move from one location to another, using your beautiful limo ;-) New topic just for fun, because: 1. Tokyo will likely happen in 2032 - I don't see more than 50/50 chances it wil happen this year. 2. We are not milionaires, aren't we? 3. Normally, before covid, it is relatively easy to get to the olympics, but to get tickets you want and to be in THE GOLDEN CIRCLE - well... that's a different story. My early thoughts for first days. (Subject to change). Day - 2 Wed 21/07/2021 9.00-17.00 SOFTBALL - Women Games, AUS vs JPN, ITA vs USA, MEX vs CAN - Fukushima Azuma Baseball Stadium Because: 1. I never watched softball live before, 2. staging opening event of the entire games in Fukushima is very important for Japanese people because of obvious reasons, 3. I'm not really interested in women's football. 21.00-??? Party in Tokyo best places. Day - 1 Thu 22/07/2021 ???-13.00 Resting after yesterday's party in my hotel bed ;-) 17.00-22.00 FOOTBALL - Men's First Round - 2 Matches - Tokyo Stadium Teams unknown yet, but I want to see the stadium 23.30-??? Party in Tokyo best places. Day 0 Fri 23/07/2021 ???-13.00 Sleeping 20.00-23.00 OPENING CEREMONY!!! Because I love parade of nations. I really do. That is strange, I know that, but I really do. Day 1 Sat 24/07/2021 ???-18.15 CYCLING ROAD - Men's Road Race - I would like to be either at Fuji International Speedway or at Kagosaka Pass (14 km to go, probably the deciding moment) Because I love road cycling very much (if it's not Katowice downhill sprint at Tour de Pologne) and road race is the blue ribbon event on day 1 for me 19.40-23.30, but maybe even later on - VOLLEYBALL - Men's Preliminary Round - POL vs IRI and USA vs FRA - Ariake Arena Because M volleyball team would probably be the only POL team in team sports in Tokyo, But - I am afraid even my limo may be not fast enough to get to Ariake Arena from road race route on time. But if they play 5 sets, I would watch the tie-break and then USA vs FRA Day 2 Sun 25/07/2021 10.30-12.20 SWIMMING - Tokyo Aquatics Centre - Men's 400m Individual Medley Final Women's 100m Butterfly Semifinals Men's 400m Freestyle Final Men's 400m Individual Medley Victory Ceremony Women's 400m Individual Medley Final Men's 400m Freestyle Victory Ceremony Men's 100m Breaststroke Semifinals Women's 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay Final Women's 400m Individual Medley Victory Ceremony Women's 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay Victory Ceremony Because THIS IS SWIMMING!!! First finals. Cannot be missed. ???-??? Some decent Japanese streetfood 17.00-19.40 JUDO - Nippon Budokan Women -52 kg Repechage Women -52 kg Semifinals Men -66 kg Repechage Men -66 kg Semifinals Women -52 kg Contests for Bronze Medal Women -52 kg Final Men -66 kg Contests for Bronze Medal Men -66 kg Final Women -52 kg Victory Ceremony Men -66 kg Victory Ceremony Because watching judo finals in Tokyo would be sth special, even if no POL medal contenders 21.00-23.00 BASKETBALL - Men's Preliminary Round - Saitama Super Arena Teams unknown yet, rather not USA at this hour, because it is bad for NBC scheduling, USA will rather play before noon Japanese Time. But, man, this is men's basketball at the olympics. Maybe I will see Greece or Lithuania here ;-) But problems again - will it be enough time to move from Nippon Budokan to Saitama? And there will be only one match here. ... Nobody will read this sh*t probably, I know, but if you want to join my fav thread again, you're welcome. Stay healthy!

I thought Ryan Lochte was the dumbest swimmer ever. Turned out he wasn't. https://nyti.ms/39ocr2h

That one never gets boring lol

My source inside tvp sport says they will show PL matches and maybe final either in tvp sport tv or on sport.tvp.pl online. We will see if that is true.

Where will you watch the games In Poland only PL matches will be shown on tv TVP sport probably Or on sport.tvp.pl website Maybe final too I wonder whether there will be live games on YouTube via ihf Channel. I remember i watched games this way previously
