Canadian boxer Mandy Bujold reveals illness after Olympic elimination

Sick the night before

After her bout, Bujold revealed that she was struck by a serious illness the night before her big fight.

"I lost over 2 kgs in fluid during that night and had to go to the hospital and get connected to an IV to rehydrate as much as I could," she said. "I went straight from the hospital bed to the venue and didn't even have the energy to warm up."

The brazil police want to find lochte, but he's gone already.

edit : boaters mad, and they are brazilian even,

A Brazilian sailor ripped the water conditions on the Olympic catamaran course, saying floating garbage cost his boat a shot at a medal.

Brazil's Samuel Albrecht, who partnered with Isabel Swan, finished in eighth place in the Nacra 17 competition at Marina da Gloria. Albrecht said he bit his tongue when it happened Monday, but said the conditions in the race Tuesday were too much.

"(We had) problems five times (Tuesday) and yesterday it had already happened as well," Albrecht told Agence France Presse.

"We didn't want to talk much about the subject, but today it was really terrible, it was really dirty. We were in second place but we hit rubbish. I don't know if it happened with others, but it happened to us today."

Swan confirmed there was debris on the rudder of their craft, just one of the worries at a venue where bacteria in the sewage-laden waters sparked health concerns.

Apparently he was naked when he answered the door :laffo:


Also the Brazilian police just do not give a gently caress about lawyer-client confidentiality and posted a letter from his solicitor. The letter instructs Hickey to tell the Irish Sports Minister in an upcoming meeting regarding the arrest of an Irish Touter, to shove it up his rear end or face legal action. There'd be holy loving war in Ireland if the Guards pulled that kind of poo poo. People on Irish forums are loving it because there's loving nothing the Irish political/legal class can do about this. This is what normally happens in Ireland.



This guy is on the IOC Executive Board by the way, as well as being the President of the European Olympics Committees, pretty much the most senior official in European sport. The media is just reporting him as the Irish OC head though.

I got ringworm.

Should have expected it since they'd recently "remodeled" a wing that had a meth cook fire.

Also worked at a hotel once briefly, they do not wash the comforter/duvet often so uh, think about that.

Basically strip the top layer off, they do wash the sheets and stuff but do not get all drunk and horny and gently caress on the top layer, that poo poo is nasty.

^^ odd because the NBC broadcast while waiting for sailing to not start clearly said how clear and bacteria free the water was and that there were no complaints ever about the water...
