Weightlifting comps always freak me out. I just feel its a race to see who is the first to either a) break their arm in the worst way or b) give themselves a hernia.

Don’t think the explanation is any better.. but Hosszu is ex-USC (along with her coach) which is where Jessica Hardy,Morozov, and Efimova trained. All of whom have been busted for doping.

Sucks for Djoki. He was having such a good run but has looked drained since the French. Shame he hasn’t been able to medal at the olympics.. hopefully he still has juice in the tank for 2020.

Yeah but Hosszu fits the profile for dopping. Tail end of her career and she is swimming more events than ever but still dropping insane times. Efimova has been caught cheating 2x. Not saying that impossible for Americans to cheat but similar to Peaty...Ledecky is a young athlete hitting her peak so I tend to believe…

After the Mack Horton interview, I think people have decided its gloves off in regards to “doping” burns.

Australia 39
South Korea 29
Netherlands 17
Iran 6
Indonesia 3
Taiwan 3
Malaysia 1
Montenegro 1
Singapore 1
Bosnia 0

I read that he wasn’t impersonating a diplomat but rather that he was just a normal employee within the Embassy.

Yeah but does it have as much fistfights / nut punches as Water Polo. I was at the bronze medal WP match in ‘12 between Montenegro and Serbia... that sh*t was insane.

Agree. Come swim masters.. they do 50s at Nationals at least.

Hmm interesting. Right now.. I’m not liking the visuals as much (seems like it looks too much like the Magic art) but will be interested to know how it plays after testing.

So kinda like the new Warhammer: Total War? Not sure what the difference is.

Ledecky to win everything.

Agree. No other sport in the olympics is reliant on another animal to be able to perform.

My wife is Macedonian... I know EXACTLY what you are talking about!

50 meter butterfly is a thing (just not at the olympics). :P You could have still gone to World Champs.

One question I found was journalistic vs artistic style and which do you favour. We interviewed some photogs who were great for capturing little moments but didn’t have the “wow” money shots that you want to hang up on the wall and vice versa.. guys who do these sweeping grand shots but then don’t pick up the more…

Yeah, I don’t even bother on the weekend here in London as everybody is on it. Last weekend was the worst.. already server problems plus it was nice outside.

Agree. Hands down my favourite cc card + best rewards. The no-international fee thing was the main seller but love how much points you get.

Also need to take into account the mothers since you are getting into a 50/50 crapshoot there. Most of them marry normal size or even short girls which will dilute the chances of having an extra large kid. Yao would be interesting since he is married to a former national team basketball player.

YAAAAAAAAAA!!!. I caught her last European tour back in 2009. Please god say she is doing a global tour. Especially since she married her bartender from when she was in London.
