CCB 422 Posted July 23, 2019 #72 Share Posted July 23, 2019 There's no clear reason for it, but I always like the Scandinavian teams and athletes (maybe because of my dog has Danish roots ... a Great Dane). I definitely not cheer for , despite Belgium is our neighbour. Olympian1010 and Wumo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s worth noting that one of my thumbs is super messed up. Essentially my “friend” bent my thumb back so far in the wrong direction that he tore both sides of the ligament in my thumb. Luckily, We have a very good surgeon in town, and he did a wonderful job on the surgery. However, I never recovered to normal usage of that thumb because I didn’t do enough to help it heal properly. It functions at near 100%, but it’s still pretty delicate. I also now enjoy thumb arthritis at only 18, so I’m looking forward to many more years of that. So sometimes when I make mistakes it’s because the thumb isn’t always working the way I need it to, but hey 19 days of daily blogs should a great thumb workout routine “Sport has the power to change the world.

Jinzha 512 Posted July 26, 2019 #79 Share Posted July 26, 2019 When the Dutch aren't there I tend to cheer for Italy, France and, when they're competing, Senegal. They are all countries I have great memories in from vacations and internships abroad. I have fond memories of the people I met and the experiences I have had there.
