Well it’s poor form in Rio already…

The first event has already shown how rigged the competition is….

The 5km walk, every man and his dog are entered and they’re finishing in alphabetical order by country…

Khan Thinks Sharia Trumps U.S. Constitution
Grieving father who lashed out at Donald Trump wrote articles on pre-eminence of Islamic law

by Kathryn Blackhurst | Updated 03 Aug 2016 at 11:56 AM

Khizr Khan, the father of a Muslim-American soldier killed in Iraq in 2004 — who lampooned Donald Trump at the Democratic National Convention last week while holding a copy of the U.S. Constitution — has a history of supporting the notion that Islamic Sharia law takes precedence over the Constitution.

I’ll give you points for that.

Australia takes the medal for the shitmost uniforms by virtue of the strobiness.

I did like the crazy trikes though.

How did China manage to con the Olympic committee into allowing them to compete as three or four separate countries? Aren’t Olympic teams supposed to belong to one country, but China has China, China Hong Kong, and China Taiwan as separate teams. I didn’t check to see if China Tibet managed to compete as a fourth.

Kosovo is there but is a disputed country, Serbia doesn’t recognise it’s independence.

On alphabetical order, I noticed that the USA marched as the country after Spain, because the names of both countries start with E. The UK marched under the letter G. Kazakhstan under the letter C. Most puzzling, though, was how on earth Slovakia and Slovenia managed to fit alphabetically between D and E.

Vanderlei de Lima was the fire started, the twisted fire starter.

I’ll be using Aussiemandais a lot in the next couple of weeks, particularly in the swimming.

Apart from the Greeks and the host country the other countries march in the alphabetical order In The host language.

China would prefer if Taiwan didn’t compete as a separate country, but it is fairly strongly held belief in Taiwan that they are a separate country.

An old mate of mine saw that on the camera and asked the same question. I said, they are still over there on tyhe dunny window, go and have a look. He came back and told the other bloke there, “he’s a tricky bastard, they are only a centimetre across”.

whaT are these moths doing in the Olympics thread?

It’s “Deutschland” in German, “Germany” in English and “Alemanha” in Portuguese.

I guess the Portuguese is the oldest language of the three?

Germany is known as Allemagne in French and Alemania in Spanish, relating to the old Germanic tribal groupings known as the Alemanni. But Alemannic German dialects are still in use in some areas:

Chasing cars?
Horses smell weird and I’m allergic to them.

the two horses i have owned were ex pacers. if you were riding on the road and a car was coming up behind you..you would pull them over to the side so the car could pass easily. The car nearly always slowed down as it went past. As soon as it went past you moved the horse back onto the road and yelled ‘GO!’ and they would the chase the car. Guaranteed to work over and over again.

Ok – watching the table tennis now

Yes, if the ‘limpics get stopped now by a terrorist strike or a union strike or an all in brawl at the village because of loud music after 10pm or some other such hissyfit we win.
But having said that the spirit of the ‘limpiks is not about winning, it’s about competing and beating every other prick.

I reckon they should up the ante for the Olympic archery and make it barebow (no sights). At least it is recurve, so the bow looks like a bow. Compound bows look like some sort of industrial age machine.

This year had our first medal for team archery, tbh the 2 swimming medals were all that were expected for day 1

even the medals we got overnight.. a first for women’s trap and synchronised diving, not sports we are known for winning.

It’s not until the swimming really gets going that our medal count shoots up

Swimming is one of our better chances yes.

hmmm, vault and women’s cycling have both produced horrific accidents now. begins victim tally

It’s not as if we’re throwing a hammer. That would be fucking weird.

I reckon synchronized diving is amazing. It’s not just the one athlete, it has to be synchronized and gravity has such a big say.

My brother’s friend’s brother is Travis Mahoney, who came 7th in swimming yesterday morning.

I’ve been told that as much as he would’ve liked to have won and received the gold medal, he really just wanted to be in the event.

Personally though, I couldn’t really care less about the Olympics. I saw on YouTube that Channel 7 made a video of highlights from the opening ceremony, but it only goes for 2 minutes. Couldn’t have been a real great event then….

LOL. When the Opening Ceremony was screened live I blinked and missed it. The 2 minute summary included everything of interest, including the parkour (both pretend and real), the Ninja-warrior-style climbing wall, the girl from Ipanema, the wall building and destruction (but why?) and the CO2 propaganda. I caught the whole thing later. It was as good as any Olympic opening ceremony I’ve seen. They saved money by using very simple physical props but a startling computer-generated slide-show.

The woman who won Kosovo’s first ever Olympic medal hopes the golden honour sends a message to young survivors of war that “they can do anything they want”.

Rio is Kosovo’s maiden Games, and judo star Majlinda Kelmendi claimed the historic win, beating Italy’s Odette Giuffrida by yuko in the women’s 52kg final.

Kelmendi, 25, sank to her knees in tears after the event, and then ran to hug a small group of supporters chanting “Kosovo, Kosovo!”

“I have always wanted to show the world that Kosovo is not just a country that has gone through war,” Kelmendi said, with her nation’s flag draped around her shoulders.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-08-08/majlinda-kelmendi-wins-kosovo-first-ever-gold-medal/7700506

The movement to recognise Kosovo’s independence among sovereign nations stalled a bit. 109 nations recognise Kosovo, which is about 56% of all nations.

But sporting bodies are getting on board. FIFA and UEFA admitted Kosovo in May 2016, and was recognised as a full Olympic member in 2014.

Amazing, after day 3, Australia has still held onto third place. First two places are also unchanged.

1. US. 5 gold, 7 silver, 7 bronze
2. China. 5 gold, 3 silver, 5 bronze
3. Australia. 4 gold, 3 bronze.

The gold on day 3 for Australia was women’s rugby sevens.
So the women have it, 12 Australian women have won gold and only 1 man.
At least 2 Australian women have won bronze, for synchronised diving.
I don’t know who the other two bronzes are, one each for archery and swimming. OK, three men in archery, four in swimming.

Total so far, 22 Australians have won Olympic medals, and we’re only on day 3.

Here’s a thing that not many people at the bus shelter knew.
This Olympics is the first time professional boxers are allowed to compete, apparently.

Right but apparently it is still not “open” and most pros won’t fulfill the criteria.

From the 2016 Summer Olympics, male athletes no longer have to wear protective headgear in competition, due to a ruling by the AIBA and the IOC that it contributes to greater concussion risk. Female athletes will continue to wear the headgear, due to “lack of data” on the effectiveness of it on women.

Ukraine’s gymnastics team has some explaining to do
Nick Schwartz, FOXsports.com, news.com.au
August 9, 2016 11:41am

GYMNASTICS commentators were stunned on Tuesday during the men’s Olympic gymnastics team final when the Ukrainian national team willingly took scores of zero, which ensured a last-place finish.

In the team final, each country sends three athletes to perform on each apparatus — but Ukraine only had two athletes complete the high bar, parallel bars and floor exercise.

Ukraine sent Maksym Semiankiv to the high bar in the middle of the competition — but instead of doing his routine, Semiankiv hung onto the bar for a second, then dropped and nodded to the judges. He took a score of zero, and also scratched in the parallel bars.

Semiankiv didn’t appear to be injured, and even if he was, Ukraine could have had another member of its five-man team do a routine in his place.

According to NBC’s Andy Thornton, the team planned to throw the competition.
