Ya, I have no idea why CBC was not carrying that race live. They’ve been pretty good about that stuff this year but that was a miss for sure. At least it was on SN1

it breaks down as pretty interesting


Jamaica and Canada for the Americas
Japan and China for Asia (those countries always punch above their weight in relays)
UK and Italy from Europe


I see as the top 6- although never want to count out the Germans in anything and I just don't know enough about Ghana

Last edited by looooob; 08-04-2021 at 08:50 PM. Reason: count OUT the Germans not count ON- oops

I know it's relative but the Americans are having a terrible Olympics. They may end up with less than 100 medals and less Golds than China.

The women's semifinal of the 4×100m relay was strong. The Americans, British, and Jamaica all get into the final. The Chinese were a surprise.

Lapointe with the silver and it was nice to see that there were two Canadians in the C1 final. The American that won gold is only 19! She could easily be a force in this event for the next three Olympics.

How in the world do you place 2-3-4 in the 200m, 2nd in the 100, and fail to qualify for the 4x100 final?

by not being able to pass the baton properly. That has been the problem for the Americans for the last couple of major events.

I am not great at this but try hard.
My vpn only allows 3 connections.
I had three feeds open and still missed the decathlon discus and the 4x100 relay.
I did watch the canoe silver though.
But yeah, great night!

Pole vault feed has started on the app. Decathletes just lounging around waiting. Man, it looks hot even in the shade.

Soccer at this time in this stadium tomorrow.
