I will write about here from time to time ! 😃

So far switching from EurosportPlayer to Player.pl here in Poland didn't go smoothly for me. I don't have access to the "on demand" videos, couldn't watch today's alpine skiing when back home after work. Only live tv (Eurosport) is available but through CanalPlus, not by Player :-( :-(((((

Unfortunately only 75 emojis allowed in one comment. So new NOCs here - MOZ and JOR couldn't get their flags. @Sindo

Judo W -48kg, as it stands now: 1. Natsumi Tsunoda / Funa Tonaki JPN - only one athlete from any NOC can participate. @phelps what you think? who will get a spot in Team JPN here? 2. Shirine Boukli FRA - as "any other" option, 2 votes in the comments 3. Abiba Abuzhakynova KAZ & Julia Figueroa ESP this one turned out to be very interesting imo

Well, I don't like this document. This is not what I was looking for. I liked that book because it is about Munich 1972 Games AS A WHOLE. We usually remember only about terror, and IT HAS TO BE REMEMBERED FOREVER, but apart from that there are many interesting stories about those Games and some of them are well-mentioned in this book.

Did you remember India lost a medal in this event in LA by 0.01 sec??? I didn't...

Correction: obviously M 400m IM was on day 2 in Tokyo as well, it was the 1st swimming finals session but it was on day 2 in the morning because of NBC. anyway, you are right. Boukli is definitely a contender in W -48kg and there should be many medals in judo for FRA but I think they will have bigger chances in next days in this sport though...

I told you, I’m not good at judo

This day 1 schedule is not good for France. It won't be easy for them to get a gold on Day 1. In Tokyo there was Men's 400m Ind Medley on Day 1...

4th places Day 1 1. SWIMMING - Men's 400m Freestyle - Felix Auboeck AUT (T) 2. SWIMMING - Women's 400m Freestyle - Bella Sims USA (T) 3. SWIMMING - Men's 4x100m Freestyle - Australia (T) 4. SWIMMING - Women's 4x100m Freestyle - China (T) 5. RUGBY SEVENS - Men's Tournament - Ireland (T) 1 1 1 1 1

Ranking of 4th places will be here soon ;-) (I will try to count them just to check how many of them goes to Canada ;-)

Corrected. Thanks

Last poll of Day 1 These are sports I don't follow much So I'm waiting for your words of wisdom here Have I missed any favourites or dark horses?

Rumours here are : yes

Surely I am. Thanks.
