Man, I'm just so happy Chong Wei finally beat Lin Dan at an Olympics. Now to get that elusive first gold for the country.
There is no need to be mad.

It's also painful to be the poor ref to have to watch the entirety of that just to make sure nobody is running for any part.

They can use all those sorted out refs from boxing. This sounds like a fair punishment.

Italy has a really strong team. It´s long overdue for them to win a gold medal, even though I´m hoping for Brazil to surprise everyone ^^

I still remember the Brazil vs Italy match during the 2004 Olympics in the group stage. 5 sets with set 5 ending 33x31 for Brazil. One of the best matches I have ever seen and made me a fan of volleyball. I really miss our team from back then. If Brazil doesn´t make it, I will definitely be cheering for Italy!

EDIT: just when I posted this Italy started to lose...:/

Me too, but Canada is playing better, so I think the result is quite fair.

There is still time to dream though

Considering those refs have awarded wins to people getting the shit pounded out of them, I think you can hop in a car and they'd still let you medal.

So watching "modern" pentathlon, I wonder what five olympic sports one would take today to create a competition to determine the best all-around athlete.

Some sort of running and swimming are a given, but not sure about the rest. Cycling is probably out as it would be too similar to triathlon then. I'm thinking one of tennis/table tennis/badminton, which would obviously have to be downsized similarly as they do for fencing now. Maybe keep shooting (or replace it with archery).

You probably need some sort of wrestling/martial arts/fighting because it makes up a big part of the Olympics. Would be tricky to add into an event like the pentathlon/decathlon though

I didn't get a chance to watch but does the Brazil team just look deflated from losing at home in the semis? I was wondering how well they would come out and play today

Possibly yes.

Match ended, Canada 2x1 Brazil. Fair result, Canada was clearly superior in this game.

Gg, congrats =)
