It's probably the same rule of the previous YOG. A gymnast MUST compete in all apparatus in order to qualify for any final. So if your gymnast somehow doesn't start in one of the other apparatus, he won't qualify for the final in Pommel Horse. Crazy, I know...

Once again I'm glad to live in the Northeast region. São Paulo and Rio elect the worst politicians possible.

What I meant is that Trump never went AS FAR as Bozo in his comments. Some of Bozo's comments on record: "The mistake of the dictatorship was to torture and not kill." "Pinochet should have killed more people." "I would be incapable of loving a homosexual child. I prefer that my son die in an accident" "I won't rape you because you don't deserve it." (to a female politician) "I don't have this risk, my children were very well educated" (about what would he do if his son dated a black woman) "I won't fight or discriminate, but if I see two men kissing in the street, I'll knock them." "Women should earn less because they get pregnant" "(if) the son starts to act like that, a little bit gay, a spank changes his behavior." "I went in a quilombo. The lightest afro-descendant there weighed seven arrobas [a measurement used to weigh cattle]. Not even for procreate he's good anymore." Should I continue?

I agree 100%. I think Brazil won a medal at YOG and I didn't even care. It's also disheartening to see many athletes supporting him when he promised to eliminate the Ministry of Sports. The only positive thing about this election: knowing about people that supported him and exclude them from my life (granted, there wasn't that many). Thank lord fascism still isn't that strong where I live.

Trump is a very reasonable person compared to him, and Trump never went too far in his comments.

With over 80% of votes counted I *think* we'll have a second round but it doesn't matter. Just give the win to Bozo already and spare us of three more weeks.

Bolsonaro expected to win in first round. We're doomed.

What a bad tournament for Turkey! And suddenly things are looking quite good for Russia.

The torch is good, the flame didn't extinguish even with all the wind

This seems to be a great live experience, but in TV it doesn't look so great as one would hope.

The whole thing is supposed to be under 2 hours, which would also be the quickest opening ceremony?

Now the flag parade

Well, I don't think many brazilians follow this forum anyway, so I can share (also, Im pretty sure the brazilians here also don't like the leading candidate)

I'm voting for Ciro Gomes, I like him and I think he's the only candidate who can stop he who must not be named (at least according to polls).

At least they're not extremists - and I hate Temer and won't vote for Haddad unless he's up against Bonosaur.

I called you pessimistic on another topic but here you're too far optimistic. His rejection rate was huge and is decreasing by the day, the same way his voting numbers are increasing (according to polls, he has more than 40% of valid votes in first round). I don't think he'll win this Sunday (although there is a possibility), but I think no one can stop him three weeks from now.

Also, on a topic regarding this forum, he is the only major candidate that doesn't include sports in his political program. We know brazilian athletes already suffer as it is, if he wins we can kiss goodbye the investments made in this area.

Extremely disheartening to see this here. This man is the worst thing that could ever happen to Brazil - if you guys think Trump is unreasonable sometimes, you should see this person talk for 5 minutes. I fear for my friends in case he's elected (which is very much the most likely scenario right now). Also, it's a little ironic that you're (apparently) supporting an extremist when you have said plenty of times that extremism is bad in any form. I guess that only works for the far-left then?

You're so pessimistic lol From the images I see, most of the venues look good, even beautiful! In some cases the city does all the work . Also, the opening ceremony was a great idea for this particular event and I'm sad I won't be able to be there (that's why I'm also sad about the closing ceremony not being held, but it isn't a great loss). Anyway, I have good expectations for the one week I'm gonna stay in BA.

Brazil team at the Rio Olympic Park. Good luck to our athletes Our flagbearer will be the grandson of Servílio de Oliveira, first brazilian Olympic medallist in Boxing.
