Canada National Thread

[JoshMartini007 2,212]

Didn't expect a medal on the first day. Rowing went well, but the loss of our men's volleyball team stung a bit, even though Italy is better ranking wise we were up 2-0 and lost 3-2

 

Hoping for a couple of medals tomorrow.

Id score day 1 as a disappointment. 

 

Volleyball team flopping, our second beach volleyball team losing a close match, Michael Woods missing out on a medal etc.

I wouldn't say disappointment.  Yeah, Woods was a medal contender but there's only three medals and half a dozen contenders.  5th ain't bad.  

 

Yes, the second beach volleyball team actually looked kind of bad in the last set tonight, but the actual medal favourites looked dominant in their match.

 

Volleyball was a heartbreaker.  Taking a 2-0 lead, and actually leading in the 3rd set.  Then they completely fell apart.  They needed that win to position themselves well for the quarters.  

 

But, a huge win in softball over Australia pretty much guarantees Canada will play for a medal, very likely gold/silver (and even if it is bronze, they look much better than the three possible adversaries).  

 

Soccer wasn't impressive, but they got the job done.  They'll move on.  

 

Rowing was generally successful.  W8 looked very good, almost going directly to the final.  I'd say they're in the hunt for a medal now.

 

Swimming transpired pretty much as expected, which is good.  Exception being Pickrem opting out of the 400 IM which she probably wasn't going to medal in anyway (though who knows with so few entries).  

 

Tomorrow Swimming relay and diving offer hope for medals.  Some Rowing semis.  If Canada wins in softball it'll guarantee a medal.

Swimming has me worried. Every individual swim was slower than trials

Looking forward to two very likely medals today (fingers crossed), and a huge showdown between Japan and Canada for a shot at the gold in softball. Also excited to see the debut of skateboarding (potential outside shot at a medal?) and surfing. 

 

As an aside, watching the CBC's daytime show right now and find Perdita Felicien to be very obnoxious. Talking about herself at every opportunity she gets.

Hopefully she realizes. It's her first time hosting such a big show like this

I tried watching surfing earlier.  Am i alone thinking that this is very boring to watch.  I thought we had Canadians competing ?
