Paris Olympics 2024

Turning into a bit of a disappointing day for Ireland after such a great start. Cian O'Connor making a balls of the last round in the showjumping. Only 1 boxer left standing.

Sculls a disaster as well after being in a great position. Hopefully the mixed 4x400 relay go well in the heat tonight.

1500m men's runners failed to progess through their heats - will have chances in the repechage tomorrow.

Golfers a good bit off the pace.
 
Watching USA vs Morocco right now. Tim Howard is one of the announcers for the US broadcast. He's not the most charismatic but I like his footballing takes way more than other former US players.

Already one of our best olympics... I remember in 1992 seeing my grandfather crying when Amhrán na bhFiann was played when Michael Curruth won gold, Grandad was 83 then, and that was only the 4th gold Ireland had ever won in the olympics, we've seen half that gold count in the last week, we may even beat the 4 he saw in his life. He Died in 1995 he'd have loved seeing what Michelle Smith did in 1996..

Ah yeah and I think we will win more medals by the end of the games, just disappointed with today. We had great chances to win medals today.
 
France v Argentina in men's football QFs will be something to watch after all those Argentinian chants. Spoke to a friend of mine who lives in Paris, he told me that all the Argentinian athletes are booed at regardless of the sports.
