Olympics Indian Perspective / performance and discussion

And i had high hopes from Anjali somehow i thought she was not under pressure this time and might do well.
Oh well

one female judoka bowed out in seconds.

mansher singh had first two good rounds while in third he bluffed and scored only 20 now in 21st place and manavjit singh sandhu is in 12th place.

second round of qualifying tomorrow and tomorrow afternoon there will be final. i dont have any hopes now there

in pistol men`s 10 meter the so called "Goldfinger" samresh jung is at about 39th place and he will be eliminated for sure

and there goes with it a few million rupees of sponsorships, preparation, tax-payers money in drain.

btw safin cyclists are out and compared to france the sky is muddy

Where are you watching the cyclists
DD is showing boxing

And the shooters have really disappointed us again. They are very good at building expectations.

See, the moment PWC said that we would get 6 medals, I knew we would get none. When was the last time management consultants ever got anything right?

@safin : they were showing cycling when i left for clinic.

right now update i have is after 125 something kilometers all the major contenders are within peloton. one chilean and one bolivian riders had breakaway early and were having 11 minutes advantage.

these butter tongued anchors should be fired. they are talking a lot and showing nothing.

DD missed shooting / weightlifting finals.

None of the indians have managed to qualify for the finals in shooting.

Vijender Kumar of India is through to quarters in middleweight 75kg Boxing

Dinesh Kumar of India just got a solid beating froma newbie from algeria.
Light Heavyweight 81kg, contest stopped at round 3 and just as well cos Kumar was about to be KO'ed
20 point margin of defeat, biggest of the night.

Saina Nehwal won her match in round of 64.

if she continues her form and creates one upset we may be clapping her all the way to semifinal atleast.

^^ But even then, tough to get the medal.
