Summer Olympics 2024

Best clip I’ve seen so far is the hopping fencing guy.

Leon freaking Marchand! Wow! This dude is an absolute beast and a spectacle. He actually surpassed Phelps record in the 400m medley and decimated his opponents extremely comfortably.

He was coached by the guy who mentored Phelps which is why this victory makes a lot of sense. Wonder how many more golds he will end up winning before this Olympics ends.

We are watching an incredible match in volleyball. The match between the Netherlands and Türkiye is currently 2-2. We will watch the final set. The Netherlands started the match very well, the Turkish team was quite ineffective. But starting from the 3rd set, Türkiye started to play very well. After Vargas won consecutive points in the 4th set and the mistakes made by the Netherlands, the match extended to the last set. Türkiye is an excellent team in women's volleyball, I recommend you to follow every match carefully

The USA players are very good, the stars of the night were Lebron James and Kevin Durant.

It's unfair, after not seeing any action during the exhibition match, KD comes back and lead the US team against Serbia as if he was not injured. Is he the weapon the the US is hiding from other teams?

Swimming is one of the major sports in the Olympics that's been dominated by American athletes for a long period of time so I'll not be surprised if they continue with their dominance of the sports in this current edition of the Olympics. So far, I've not been opportuned to watch any of the swimming games in the ongoing Olympics but I'll try and make out time to make sure I watch the next swimming game. I will want to see athletes from other countries to challenge American swimmers even when I know it'll be very difficult to stop the Americans.

Yeah, Americans dominating the swimming competition in the Olympics, but there are other countries too, challenging them for supremacy. One country that is consistently in the picture of swimming scene is Australia. So I'm not surprised that they will go all out in this Olympics against the USA team.

Well, the truth is that I have seen that Spain is almost a power in both men's and women's football. I am surprised about Nigeria, because I know that Nigeria has a very attractive football, but something must be wrong, the Black Eagles must have some problems I sincerely wanted Nigeria to win. I have seen a lot of this country, its people and everything, they are very happy, and I think they deserve to win in football, whether men's or women's. I like it. In fact, I would like to go to Nigeria one day to learn and play football too, because I truly admire the technique of their football.

Spain is good. Always has been. Men, women, none of which matters. Their level of competitiveness is fierce. And Nigeria, those Super Falcons? They have heart. They practically kept Spain at a draw. Keep it in mind. A draw against Spain. That is massive

Although they didnt make it past the group level, I observed something in the game. They are promising. A raw ability. They might be unstoppable with the correct support and instruction. And you, wanting to go see them play? Smart move. You are looking for actual hunger, true passion? See Nigerian football. Trust me; the journey is well worth it. You wont regret it.

I'm not having much luck with my bets on the Olympics yet
I bet on Brazil winning against Japan in women's soccer, I lost
I bet on Brazil vs France in basketball, I lost

Brazil's next match in women's soccer is against Spain, with 5.40 odds for a Brazil win
It's going to be very difficult for Brazil to qualify

Very interesting second round of Olympic football tournament.
Heroic win for Ukraine against Morocco with goal scored in last moments of stoppage time, and it count more when we know that Ukraine played most of the second half with one player less after Salyuk received a red card.
Japan won like I expected but they only scored one goal against Mali.
New eight matches of round 3 are all played tomorrow.

Nigeria's basketball women's team has upset Australia's team. 75-62 on the score cards. So this is another history for Nigeria that after 20 years or so of having not so good standing on this Olympics, they're able to beat Australia.

I bet on Brazil vs France in basketball, I lost

I've won on this one for basketball but the rest, they're not seem to be good for me. This was the only match that I've won, maybe tomorrow I'd cast some bets and will try to win them.

Two veterans met at the Olympic Games (they are now considered veterans in my eyes due to their age)
Novak defeated his rival Nadal 2-0 and continued on his way to the Olympic games.
Rafael could not show his presence in the first set and the first set ended 6-1. Although he showed a little more resistance in the second set, he lost this set 6-4 and bid farewell to the games.
Nadal may now have to quit tennis gradually. Because it seems very difficult for young people to resist.

Yes, it was terrible (by the way, that guy in the black suit and black shorts/underpants was flashing his genitals to the whole world! What kind of nonsense is that?), I wonder what percentage of French people (not by nationality, but by behavior model) were represented here? It seems to me not very large, since despite all the decline of culture, not everyone in France is a freak.
The question arises: can some new inhabitants (with a barbaric background) of France be blamed for not integrating into society, etc.? I would not want to integrate into such a society either.

That was a best opening ceremony ever. Polyamyrous throuple in the mix too. It was about love and inclusion, you know, the values christianty is supposed to be build on. And honestly i don't get this taboo sexualisation of nude people. Being aware and ashamed of their nudity of it was the reason people were thrown away from the paradise in the first place (according to the lore). So one would think christians would see nudity as the ideal and pure state.

I find it weird how everyone got offended for this, but ironically conservatives have been always trying to cancel and percecute anything that's fun and close to direct teachings of the christ himself, like love for the poor and forgiveness. But i doubt that this ban would kill the olympics brand which really old and way stronger than current athmosphere.

Maybe US should tear down their statue of liberty as a protest, to show their disappointment, you know because it was a gift from france.

I have been having similar experiences and it making me feel like betting on the Olympics is literally a difficult way of gambling as I have no been lucky enough, i have not been able to win on a single bet win the Olympics did kicked off and I bet on their games. I will keep trying maybe I will get lucky before the Olympics comes to an end.

In archery, France reached the final. We lost our chance for the final because of Mete Gazoz's poor performance. We had a chance to medal as a team for the first time in our history, we still have a chance, but only for the bronze medal. Abdullah and Ulaş are shooting well but Mete is not on his game today. I hope we will complete the team archery by getting at least a bronze medal.

The best thing is to stay away from team sports that have their own major championships when playing at the Olympics, it's just not the same and the ods are reflecting more the usual team form ignoring most don't care that much about it or are already at the end of a long season and tired or injured as hell.
Go for individual sports where you have already seen the qualifying, in most of them surprises are lower than others for the returns they carry.

That was a best opening ceremony ever.

It was garbage and that's it, they tried to make a pile of everything and they fucked up so bad they even went in and deleted the whole thing themsleces and apologized for it. It was nothing artificial it was made just to shock like a cheap amateur onlyfans movie.

And to imagine that this is not the performance to expect from the USA team is what is scary

To be honest, I don't think that USA can play much better than what they showed vs Serbia, if better at all. You could see that they really wanted to show the world that they are the favorities, and especially against current MVP Jokic.

Keep in mind that while Jokic was on the floor, Serbia looked pretty good and it only made the real difference when he was on the bench. USA is still by far the main favorite but it will be interesting to see what will happen if they get a bad shooting day. I know that chances are low, but I still hope that someone can upset them.


In other news, we (Croatia) got our first medal in Paris. Its bronze and in the air rifle, 10m.

Djokovic absolutely decimated Nadal on this turf which was expected, but Nadal can still claim another Olympic gold with Alcaraz. Excited!

I hope we will complete the team archery by getting at least a bronze medal.

Forget bronze because they nailed a silver by barely beating Turkey and losing pretty comfortably against the South Koreans who are in a league of their own by winning consecutive golds in different Olympic events.

Djokovic managed to pass the legendary racket player Nadal without any difficulty. Djokovic really played two great sets. Turkey was able to win the bronze medal in archery under the leadership of Mete Gazoz in the third place, I think it may be the first medal Türkiye won in the France Olympics. South Korea won the gold medal, they got 10 points in a row in the final games, the South Korean athletes shot very accurate shots as a team.

I haven't made any bet on any Olympics games. I prefer the entertainment that comes from watching the games. My favourite games are the track and field event and swimming. The football matches are not as interesting as championships that are exclusively for football games.

exactly! What catches my interest in the ongoing Olympic game is the swimming and track competitions. I don't know why soccer becomes a little bit boring at this point? Maybe because we've got other alternatives sports? ^{[I don't like ice hockey either]}

You're Croatian? Good to know that as well... Congratulations on your first medal. I'm not really following the Olympics this time around and I feel very empty. However, that's what you get when you're responsible for almost everything that happens around you.

Hope you're not planning on betting on Brazil against Spain in women football? Spain are the best women side currently the best side in women football. Spain, France, England, Germany, USA are the top 5 teams in women football. Brazil used to be good but not anymore. I don't see them winning against Spain. I don't even think Brazil will put up as much fight as Nigeria did.

For the Olympics I think I'm going to focus on Basketball. Basketball is relatively easier to predict than football. Aside the upset of Nigeria pulled against Australia, I don't think there have been any major shock so far.

Dude I'm speaking for Türkiye, why are you responding as if I am French? Türkiye won the bronze medal by beating China. France lost to Korea in the final and got the silver medal. The Koreans deservedly won the gold medal. Team archery is one of the most enjoyable sports to watch. Türkiye won a medal as a team for the first time in their history.

The only good part about the opening ceremony was the Parade Of Nations through the Seine river on boats. Apart from that the French authorities tried to push as much as political correctness and woke behavior down the throats of the audience as possible. Christians are offended after they distorted the last supper with a performance by LGBT people. I have watched Olympics opening ceremonies from several events in the past and this was the first time it got to such a gross and diabolique display.

Yes, it was terrible (by the way, that guy in the black suit and black shorts/underpants was flashing his genitals to the whole world!

This is by far the worst Olympics ever. It is as if the organizers wanted the Olympics to be a controversial one. Artistic or not, the ceremony was a perverted display. Don’t they know that children watch the Olympics. BTW I read YouTube removed the video as a lot of people found it offensive.

There are betters ways to represent the culture of a people without profanity. The London 2012 Olympics has one of the best opening ceremonies in its history. It was memorable for me and I loved it when they did the James Bond scene with the Queen. It was a clean and beautiful ceremony that set everyone up for a great Olympics. And that’s how the Olympics should be.
