They've been nothing but respectful, giving hugs to the Japanese and whatnot. Do you even know what gloating is?

Just stop it.

A thousand apologies. This was epic beyond belief.

None whatsoever.

This is now the official "laugh at Germany" thread! :ROFLMAO: *checks Croatia's score* Nevermind.

Oh Geraldo... Sooner you go home the better.

From a technical standpoint, his footwork improved immensely. I cannot overstress this. His stroke mechanics are also better and especially the feet movement in-between the strokes. From a mental standpoint, less tantrums, less talking to himself, better focus.

It implies Harimoto deserved the silver more. Truls really earned this one. This was a whole new Truls, Truls that doesn't crack under pressure. Definitely not the same Truls that lost to Pitchford at the ETTC, or to Darko in Montreaux twice.

Some of you will really go out of your way to diminish Truls. He eliminated the world #1 and #6, his silver is well deserved. Hold on to your dignity, people. The "Novak can never be GOAT" crowd is having a nightmare right now as well.

I was never a fan of FZD's style of play. Very mechanical and by the numbers. Blunt force trauma combined with almost perfect consistency. Whereas Ma Long always played a beautiful game combining power with elegance. It's like comparing Andy Roddick to Roger Federer in a way.

Pulling through in game 2 is what won it for him. Truls was closer than the end result would suggest.

Sounds cruel, why is that?

Who is the chick commentating with Bobrow? She just canceled Ryu Seungmin.

What are you talking about?

We already have that, it's called "mixed doubles". I'm not a religious person so the last supper parody did nothing for me, but the one thing that outright disgusted me is having a "fat acceptance" activist not only involved in the ceremony, but put literally front and center. Olympics are...

Was her coach asleep or something?

Some Croatian handball NT members complained about food at the Olympic village being garbage. Imagine being fed slop in Paris, of all places. Also, Truls' shirt is too big, what's up with that?

Kao will be 20 years old soon, legit looks 16. Needs to work on his physique a little. Other than that, a serious talent.

Truls is doing it again, going for killshots and missing too many. If he doesn't take it down a notch, he's out.

Yup, one of Truls' biggest weaknesses is over-dependence on fancy third ball killshots and the general lack of consistency. Today he finally seemed comfortable keeping the ball on the table.
