2024 Summer Olympics from Paris

2024 Summer Olympics from Paris

Amazed we don't have a thread yet. I will do up a fancier OP tomorrow but this will do for now as a placeholder.

Women's softball opens the games in roughly 5hrs with soccer/football, archery and some other sports starting before the opening ceremony Friday night Japan time.

PREDICTIONS: Rona causes a stupid amount of issues, I still waste approx 100hrs of coverage anyway.

I don't mind it when the races are close. But I just turned on men's 1500 about halfway thru and it was a foregone conclusion.

Good for Bobby Finke though.

bbc has two channels showing olympics stuff

one of them has been showing a ten minute interview (and counting) with some random woman who won a shooting silver medal

the other is some people chatting in a studio

SHOW SOME PEOPLE RUNNING AND JUMPING AND STUFF


A BUNCH OF HOT WOMEN ARE HAVING A CONTEST TO SEE HOW HIGH THEY CAN JUMP RIGHT NOW AND BBC IS GIVING ME SOME PRE-RECORDED BULLSHIT INSTEAD

WHY


Oblique Seville isnt a real name, but nevertheless that 9.80 didn't look that tough for the guy


Yes he looked vg. Slowing up too

Backing up 90 mins later is a thing though. Let’s hope he can do it

I'm still waiting for the 3rd semifinal.


by PeteBlow k

I love how Geoff Capes stil holds the British Shot Put record.

well we know he wasn’t on drugs because he became World’s Strongest Man afterwards


by Randall Stevens k

I'm still waiting for the 3rd semifinal.

Aus TV has only shown one so far because we need to see yet another swimming medal ceremony.


Randall Cunningham's daughter jumping well!


my apologies to the BBC, who in fact are broadcasting the hot woman jumping competition using the latest picture-in-picture broadcasting technology
