Never in doubt.
Jamaica and Trini 1-2 in the relay, that would be perfect.

I really got emotional when Tia Hellebaut took the gold in the high jump. So glad for her

Well done to France in the mens handball too good, excellent defence and their main goalie had a blinder.
Iceland couldn't take advantage of the fast breaks and that missed penalty helped very little, that early period in the first half where the French got 5 goals ahead, they were never losing from there.

Re: Lykke til Island og Norge i OL Handball Chat Thread
Thanks for including a pic of my boys. I was so proud of them yesterday. I honestly admit I even cried when they received their medals. Even Fernandez got 1 and that was great because he injured his arm and he wasn't among the last 14 men. Dinard had promised that he'd give his medal to Jérôme but he didn't need to  And Jack the Magician was with them too
Congrats to all the teams who made the finals- men & women.
Tomorrow means back to work for me and I really don't feel like it

Re: Lykke til Island og Norge i OL Handball Chat Thread
They are all winners gnome.
It was funny they interviewed the girls and asked them what they missed the most. The majority said they missed their bed, one said she missed Norwegian milk. Yes, the milk is good there, but expensive.
One of them big Larsen, in the last set of pics, she missed Smash chocolate, which is a little company from Trondheim.
Another missed brown cheese, which is very tasty, high fat content and not always the best for winter months.
