Not a good Olympics for Denmark so far it seems. At least today was bad. Fuglsang's medal makes up for so much though.

Another one for US. China and USA battle is always fun.

MURPHY WITH AN OLYMPIC RECORD :bow:

GOLD

by Freeza Tue Aug 09, 2016 2:47 am

Hope to see another Danish in the finals. Don't know what else we could have a chance to get a medal in. 200 breaststroke for Women is the most likely.

Hungary have had an amazing olympics so far.

by Freeza Tue Aug 09, 2016 3:02 am

Another 2 medals for USA. They're really feeding on the swimming so far.

Lilly King beats the doper :bow:

Olympic Record. Just wow. Clutch as hell.

^ was a fun race to watch.

I always forget whether summer Olympics has sports other than swimming. Prime time NBC almost exclusively covers swimming and not much else. I don't really care much about the semifinals, I'd rather watch some other sports. A little variety is all I ask for tbh

Well, there's much else at night than swimming.

Only a basket game and a volley game atm.

Phelps on now

Phelps

So another Dane in the final. No chance of medal though

by McAgger Tue Aug 09, 2016 3:31 am

Kenderesci goddam smoked Michael in the last 25m.

Phelps keeping some in the tank for the final.

by McAgger Tue Aug 09, 2016 3:51 am

Katinka Hosszu swimming again. GTFI cheers

by McAgger Tue Aug 09, 2016 3:58 am

Hosszu wins the semi. Going into the final with the second best time. GB's O'Connor has the best time. Should be a great race between them. Maya Dirado also in the final with 3rd best time.

I would agree with you, but a lot of Olympic coverage isn't live. NBC is showing men's gymnastics atm with no indication that it's live :/

Was supposed to write 'not much' swimming is the last event to end today, that was an hour ago.

You only have one channel? Danish TV got 7-9 channels showing depending on how many live events.

USA with 19 medals, 14 from swimming rofl

by Unique Tue Aug 09, 2016 12:59 pm

Britain not got many medals yet. that will change as soon as the velodrome starts

by Nishankly Tue Aug 09, 2016 1:13 pm

India out in rowing by 2 seconds and shooting also going disappointing as of now. Not a good start for the day.

Never been so mad in my life. Tv-guide says they're showing fencing, but nothing to be seen. Unforgivable.

This is why I don't watch this shit.

It's pathetic. Even 30% of BCCI's turnover would go a long long way towards developing other sports in the country in the hope of delivering more medals.

Now all the pressure is on Saina, the boxers and wrestlers to deliver some medals.

Still mad there's no Longova. Damn tragedy. North Korea won in Archery
