One of the worst things about the difference between 3rd and 4th at the Olympics? It leads to opinions like this being aired on the national broadcaster, which many people will end up believing.

For the record: two Irish swimmers won medals in Paris (and both were outstanding) One has been based in England for several years. The other has been based in the US for several years.

very little return lol. Judgement based on metal alone displays the ultimate in superficial analysis

Clueless...and only one championship counts apparently.

A god awful take. Absolutely mind bogglingly dumb.

Lord give me the confidence to speak about my own sport with the certainty and conviction of these people speaking about other sports they do not cover

Disappointing to see one sport being set up against another. So much for solidarity!

Two/three of those girls in the 4x400 work part time to achieve their dreams with the back up of family and friends, and came 4th in the World many more do the same. Plenty more Irish Olympians doing the same give it a break Nick...

@seidodge His facts are wrong in that Swim Ireland dont count the Europeans as competition to make the qualifying time. Ask Shane Ryan

Might not have got medals, but the “return” was huge

It's clearly their ABC. Watch this 'til the end to understand just how bad it is. Surely our national broadcaster should at least respect the flag. Many proud Australians are suffering, as the 'elites' ridicule the people.

#ThisIsManipur My village, which lies on the border line between Saikul and Imphal Valley, is one of the worst affected in terms of road connectivity. The normal road on which we depend was cut off by Meitei egotismpeople. This is the road that leads to our village.SS Kim

KL Rahul talking about Karnataka cricket and Kannada cinema is one of the nicest things on the internet. With Kannada being his mother tongue. Not many things in the world unify people across lands like sport and culture. 💪🏽

This is one of the worst jobs in the nation. No one respects you, you deal with the worst people every day, It doesn't pay enough, and no one cares about your mental state of being. An utterly thankless job.

One archive I really like is Henri Pescarolo’s test of the Ferrari F40. He describes the F40 as a true race car and also talks about a pretty funny moment during the filming. A Ferrari test driver ends up on the same track as Pescarolo, which leads to some really cool footage of the two Ferraris going at it toward the end of the clip

100% this. Trump and Netanyahu are both on borrowed time. This will end. AIPAC will end. The toxic relationship between the US and Israel will end because the American people want no part of this.

Steve Jobs: The difference between good people and great people is 50-to-1 “I’ve always considered part of my job was to keep the quality level of people in the organizations I work with very high. I mean that’s what I consider one of the few things I can contribute individually myself — versus the team that work with — is to really try to instill in the organization the goal of having only A players.” Steve argues this is especially important in technology where there’s a huge range between the best person and the worst person: “In a lot of fields, the difference between, say, the worst taxicab driver and the best taxicab driver to get you across town in Manhattan might be 2-to-1. The best one will get you there in 15 minutes, the worst one will get you there in half an hour… Or the best cook and the worst cook, maybe it’s 3-to-1… But in the field that I’m in. In software in particular. The difference between the best person and the worst person is about 100-to-1 or more.” He continues: “The difference between a good software person and a great software person is probably 50-to-1 or 25-to-1. Huge dynamic range. And therefore, I have found — and not just in software but in almost everything I’ve done — it really pays to go after the best people in the world.” But as Steve points out, this isn’t always easy: “It’s very painful when you have some people that are not the best people in the world, and you have to get rid of them. But I’ve found that my job has sometimes been exactly that, to get rid of some of the people that didn’t measure up. And I’ve always tried to do it in a humane way, but nonetheless it has to be done and it’s not ever fun.”
