Didn't quite come off this time, 5-2 loss

3/3 vs like 0/7 on penalty corners is tough to overcome

Hope we can win bronze to give Moritz Fürste a worthy sendoff

Watched the Conlan/Nikitin fight, didn't think it was nearly as bad as the Russia/Kazakhstan decision yesterday.

Yeah we had gotten quite lucky this tournament with corner conversion rates (both ways) and late goals, this time it swung the other way

Win some/ lose some

Anyone know how the tickets work for events like sailing?

Do you buy a ticket and then just chill at the beach all day?

Doesn't make any sense. Conlon clearly won all 3 rounds yet still didn't get the decision. You happen to think Levit only won 2 rounds (he should have won all 3).

Conlon beat that kid up in the first (clearest 10-9 you'll see) everywhere, then battered him at close range for the rest of the fight while making the Russian look like a chump by missing his shots completely on numerous occasions. Honestly I'd say the Russian won only 2 very brief exchanges on the inside.

Unless you're watching on TV, I don't know how you would see the exciting finishes of sailing races other than hearing an update from the announcer.

Thought both rounds 2 and 3 were very close. Lots of exchanges with lots of punches landed for both fighters in the Conlon/Nikitin fight.

Anyway, not saying Conlon doesn't have a legit gripe, boxing is a joke at the Olympics.

Synchronised ****ing swimming and one man dinghys. I'm not having that.

Especially the dinghy, basically best boat wins I'm sure. Not a sport.

Last edited by unwantedguest; 08-16-2016 at 01:29 PM. Reason: Same for 2 man dinghys if it exsists.
