New Globo ad for the Olympics:

This is true for most competitions, but not for Olympic Games (as explained here in page 68)

Temporary stands are being built in most venues, some are ready. From permanent stuff, the Velodrome is finishing the details in the facade (as you can see in the last image from previous post).

Velodrome: More:

We usually don't count retired athletes, just the ones that are active and were seeking qualification.

Brazilian confederation confirmed Felipe Borges for the C1 event. Our complete team: Men's C1: Felipe Borges K1: Pedro Gonçalves C2: Charles Corrêa/Anderson Oliveira Women's K1: Ana Sátila

I think you're right, if we have a place Pereira will play with Melo or Soares (probably Soares, who has a good record in Mixed Doubles). Brazilian tennis confederation has entered a total of 7 athletes for the Olympics Games. Except for Melo/Soares in Doubles, and Bellucci/Pereira in Singles, others will depend on invites and/or withdrawals. They are (and possible events): Thomaz Belluci: Men's Singles/Doubles (with Sá) Bruno Soares: Men's Doubles and Mixed Doubles* (with Pereira) Marcelo Melo: Men's Doubles and Mixed Doubles* (with Pereira) Teliana Pereira: Women's Singles/Doubles (with Gonçalves) and Mixed Doubles* (with Melo or Soares) Not yet guaranteed: Rogério Dutra Silva: Men's Singles Paula Gonçalves: Women's Doubles André Sá: Men's Doubles

Thank you!

Good Lord, I hope not! I'll try to find something on the Olympic Park (which is very close to golf course) to spend the afternoon/early night time.

Yes. In the Water Polo I will root for you. In the Basketball I will stay neutral as we also have canadian friends here

Just booked my flight to Rio Arrival at 9AM Saturday 6th, and departure at 3PM Monday 22nd. Due to a lot of changes in my previous schedule because of work and other stuff, I had to resell a lot of tickets, losing some precious events.
