I think she should be really happy with bronze though
Definitely. Also losing to Syd is nothing to be ashamed of. She has been an unstoppable force since Tokyo and is the first woman to break the 52 second barrier
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
Jesus Christ WTF is up with the men!!!!? Damn near all of our women deliver, but the dudes keep disappointing. The way they fucked up that 4x100 relay handoff was shocking

Another gold and two bronze on the cycling track, bronze for Hassan 10.000m and Women's Hockey team Gold. We rule hockey now first time both men and women win gold.
7th Place in sight of already the most succesful Dutch Team ever.
SIFAN HASSAN first women ever to win medals on 5000m 10.000 and Marathon on single Olympics. Harrie Lavreysen three golden medals ! 6th Place with 15 gold and 34 total.

These are my all-time favorite Olympics. Except for maybe '92. Wow! What a ride. Feeling blessed
92 in Barcelona and 2000 in Sydney were great. Next one in Los Angeles of course.
Hey H! I am on the board of a company that is at the heart of LA28 prep. The cash that has already been sunk into this is staggering, but we have at least $5 billion more to go

It's a hell of job, not many cities can pull it off too expensive nowadays. In 1928 it was held in Amsterdam. Would be cool if they could organize it again or The Hague or Rotterdam.

Yes, hosting the Olympics involves so many factors, and you’re absolutely right, it’s a major financial and infrastructural commitment. Big cities in larger nations often have the upper hand, but Holland could still present a strong case to the IOC, I believe. I hope you guys make a bid. That would be awesome

Yes we def could make a strong bid our King was also a prominent IOC member and the Dutch are really behind this amazing event (except a minority who are against it) We have plenty of sports facilities already and our infrastructure one of the best in the world. I can see them play beachvolleyball on the beach of Scheveningen LOL. European Championship beachvolleyball starts tomorrow over there.
