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'm on team fire hydrant-shaped kenyan for this one
Thompson is ridiculous.
epic men's 100m upcoming
JAM ghana be the country to beat
hate to see Cunningham's hair become a factor here
such a sick burn when they are doing the intros and they are like 'in lane 4, rene runner!' *crowd cheers* and then they go straight past lane 3 to introduce percy pace in lane 2

as someone who always makes sure to watch the olympics and is therefore an expert on athletics, i feel confident in saying that OBLIQUE TRIANGLE is value at 5/2 here
I mean the Olympics shouldn't just be "sports that people don't normally watch". Any globally played sport with strong participation should be an Olympic sport unless you want to eradicate anything but ancient sports, which would make the games super unprofitable and far less entertaining.
But why something like breakdancing is an Olympic sport and something like darts isn't deserves discussion
No, the point is that the Olympics is not the most prestigious title in tennis. Witness the number of top players who didn't turn up. This is not a remotely original point btw. There was similar discussion when football, rugby, probably some other sports became Olympics sports.
ummmm canada have a skinny tall guy with a mustache and mullet combo dominating the hammer throw. what
i dont like this one bit. hammer throwers should look like butterbean. bad development

I TOLD YOU
I GOT THIS
damn that was pretty slow
that was fantastic
i'm as surprised as you
9.79 & 9.80 winning 2024 & 2020 olympics respectively is kinda weak. are the PEDs less performant these days?
LYLES
That was the tough one for Lyles.
The double is a lock
