Even though Neeraj is the favorite, there are others such as the czech guy, peters, weber who are equally competitive. They are not here to settle for silver/bronze. Neeraj may win gold but he may not also. I'm gonna ask fans to watch the competition without expecting a medal. Its only for your own good We expected gold from hockey, finals for vinesh, archery, etc. We won 4 bronze and lots of klpd 4th place finishes. enjoy the competition and be happy with what Neeraj may bring or not bring.

If US wrestler wins Anshu Malik will get to repechage.

Sometimes they pause if track event is happening simultaneously. Then may take longer. They have to co-ordinate both track and field events, as javelin throwers take run up from the tracks from what I have seen.

NBA scouts a lot of players from the world now - esp from Jamaica and Europe. BBall is more popular than Hockey.

A match we should have been playing, in a fair world.

Jap wrestlers are technically too good. US ones are very well conditioned.

There's no way to come back from "Dick-Shyte"... I would seriously consider changing my name

Only if this guy managed to play for England or Aus, we'd be having a ball with that name.

Jap wins 10-4. Anshu out.
