2016 Summer Olympics |
Anyone watching the Olympics? Let's go USA!
*Points to himself* I've literally spent the entire day watching event after event, with little rest. Archery, judo, lots of swimming, basketball...
Obviously, I'm supporting by beloved country (¡Vamos Venezuela!), even if our chances of winning more than one medal are pretty slim; we always win a single medal, normally in boxing, combat sports and the like, and usually bronze (London was an exception; we won gold in fencing ). The one that has given us hope lately is the basketball team, as they usually do well in other tournaments (three-time South American champions, baby!), but we got paired with the US and Serbia, so, yeah, not the best chances Now let's hope we can be the second South American country to win gold in these Olympics. Argentina beat us to it...

It's on at a terrible time for me, and I've struggled to get too interested in these Olympics with everything that's been happening, but we're off to a good start.

I'm expecting Australia to go a lot better than their ranking suggests. I'm very hopeful for a medal, although a gold one is probably a bridge too far.

I'm surprised that Argentina is ranked fourth behind Lithuania. The US, Spain, and Argentina (since the early 2000s) have been the top three countries when it comes to men's basketball.
The only sport I've seen is table tennis. Not a very interesting one...
