Judo can be a very fun sport to watch but if you don't fully understand the rules you will be watching it and constantly wondering wtf is happening.

Good quick read of the basic rules - http://www.nbcolympics.com/news/judo-101-rules-scoring

Thanks a lot. I really appreciate judo. I attrended a World Cup stage at my city twice.

I´m also glad that Karate finally is coming to the next Olympics. Karate is also an exciting sport. It has been contested in the Pan American Games for a long time, it always has been a highlight in that event. Lots of great karatekas in my region.

^ Understandable, it wash shocking for lots of people as he was considered a hero in american sport.

 

Rowing medals have started today, some good racing. Germany already winning a gold.



Hmm, pie.

18 year old Aussie swimmer, came from last position at 50m to win 100m Freestyle Final in epic comeback.
The Ukraine gymnast looked like he was robbed of the Gold medal, huge deductions for a minor error.



Amazing performances by Michael Phelps with his 22nd gold medal and his 26th Olympic medal in total. Equally impressive Simone Biles with a near perfect performance in the gymnastics. USA are powering away in the Gold medal and total medal counts.



Finally the track cycling has started and it started with a gold for GB and a WR in qualifying. This is going to be good.



Hmm, pie.

Watching some of the 100kg or plus 100kg men throw other 100kg plus men around like it's nothing is scary. I mean am half the man some of them are.

 

GB just won 2 golds in the Rowing and the track and fields gets underway today but the good stuff doesn't start until tomorrow (and the relays, who doesn't love the relays?). Tracking cycling is underway so more GB medals there.



Hmm, pie.
