There should be a rule that if you don't get results then you don't get funding, or it drops progressively depending on results over a period of time.

Glad you aren't in control of anything. So basically, punish those that are doing badly and make sure they continue to do badly because they have no facilities to improve. WONDERFUL.

 

[Big-E]

So close both times for the Chinese lifter to get that 178.

 

[Keylime]

Why would that guy not shave that mole hair...oh my fucking god :lol

 

[Zaph]

Could you at least tell me if its Silverlight or Flash?

Flash.

Bask in its glory-

 

[Brinbe]

Wow, another close match in Fencing

 

[Kurita]

Women volleyball.

 

[ohlawd]

gosh I really wanna see the fencing match. Any canadians here with a stream?

 

[Hoo-doo]

Come on Shin, bring it home.

 

[DrM]

Why isn't EBU live feed working for me? I live in Finland-

Maybe your national broadcaster is blocking it or something.

 

[zephervack]

Flash.

Bask in its glory-

Mother of God, yeah not even close to one here in Canada, so jelly.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Fencing tied at 11-11. C'mon Shin!

 

[Konosuke]

In which sport did the 15yo win a gold ?

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

It was a objective mistake by the refs. They calculated the difficulty wrong, it has nothing to do with the subjective, execution score.

Its amazing,how, even though the british commentators explained this clearly, people still think "boooooooo, japan cheated"

Yet you're jumping to similar conclusions with the fencing results. I don't fully understand it but it seems there was more to it than a timing error.

 

[Withnail]

Come on Shin.

 

[Brazil]

Come on Shin, you got this.

 

[aceface]

Is swimming over for the day?

 

[naku]

Maybe your national broadcaster is blocking it or something.

[zephervack]

Fencing is amazing so far, pretty close tie.

 

[giga]

In which sport did the 15yo win a gold ?

Breast.

 

[Heel]

Shin is about to pop her X-Factor. Watch ya toes!

 

[Brinbe]

Shin =(

 

[Brazil]

Fuuuuuuck

 

[DrM]

The freaking loading screen is spinning in infinity...

Try other feed (1-12) or atleast try with some replay if it works

 

[Ark]

The Americans seem to have a thing for being quick swimming across water.

 

[Chuckie]

Shin is going to lose

 

[Big-E]

Is Epee to 15 like Sabre?

 

[Wes]

Nooooo Shin :*(

I wouldn't give them money if they're not producing results (this would be after a change of training) or at the very least less money if they're not up to a certain standard. I hear Korean archers get paid irregardless if they are Olympic level, so pay them but a lot less than they would if they were winning consistently. If they're full-time athletes then it gets treated as a promotion.

Either that or somehow instill some desire to win for winning's sake. Which isn't going to happen.

I think that already happens, and there's trials to get in the Olympic squad too.

Then the pool of competitors they're picking from must be pretty shallow.

 

[Sloane]

Shit 14-11

 

[Envelope]

Brazilian goalkeeper is a tank.

 

[MrPing1000]

Poor Shin, such a horrible way to end up without a medal.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Damn damn damn. Shin's probably gonna lose this.

EDIT: Yep. Such a sad way to go.

 

[Zaph]

Shin

 

[zephervack]

Nooooo Shin

 

[Brazil]

There's not a single drop of justice in the world.

 

[keit4]

Awwww Shin

 

[Tc91]

Shin..

 

[Withnail]

Poor Shin.

 

[Kurita]

Watching the japanese volleyball team is like watching an anime.
IKEEEEEEEEEEE !

 

[Jackson50]

Yeah, Sun! She started out slow. But she fought back. Good job.

 

[UnblessedSoul]

Nooo Shin, well done for trying

 

[owlbeak]

 

[linkeurena]

Shin This made me sad

 

[SJRB]

Why is everyone on Shin's side? Seemed like a pretty fair game to me.

 

[Kobalty]

Shin Lost

 

[Willkiller]

 

[D_prOdigy]

What's the point of anything?

 

[naku]

Try other feed (1-12) or atleast try with some replay if it works

Nah, replays have the same problem. It's been like this for a whole day.

Nothing wrong with that match, but a dodgy decision cost Shin at least Silver.
