New text for the Olympic Oath’s: 

According to the IOC Press Release, each Oath will now be taken by both and male and female representative as well.

next, IOC will "advise" parents to only give birth to twins (1 boy , 1 girl) . giving birth to a boy is against gender equality.

 

Bach really feels like he is the king of the universe. he can order whatever he wants.

To be fair, personally I do not find it as bad. A oath with 1 male and 1 female is ok. I think this should have been used much earlier.

 

In other hand I do not agree with the "forcing" M+W flagbearer thing, the NOC should have the right to decide itself who, how many and why they want to pick as their flagbearer(s)

Where is the equality when an oath about fair-play taken by a man apparently does not imply women, and vice versa? Men and women somehow have different fair-play standards or what?

 

What's next? Tennis matches having a male and a female head umpire?

no, I meant a M as representing male athletes and a W representing all female ahletes. that is. I do not see anything wrong in this, really

    • and Sindo comes to rescue them like usual 
    • I'm having a bad day and I don't want to watch this. Only a decisive victory for Ghiotto tomorrow can reassure me that these 2026 games won't be a complete failure.
    • Surprisingly, women's medal match is available on Olympic Channel.
    • https://www.fantaski.it/news/2024/11/22/tommaso-sala-si-rompe-il-crociato-in-allenamento.asp   Now the entire Italian team will be hanging on Vinatzer, who will finish maybe 30% of the races in the season. Tragedy. Sala was not an outstanding skier, but he could have made it to the top 10 several times. The biggest debacle in slalom in decades is coming  This winter seasons haven't even started yet but I'm fed up with him. We have regression in every discipline, Vittozzi disease, disaster in men`s alpine skiing, what else? Unfortunately, we have been much better in summer sports than in winter sports recently.
    • Tense men's semi but  10  8 after 11.      made a 3 in the 10th!
    • Violette Braun is the first  woman in a World Cup since 2009. Today she obliterated the NR in the 1500 by 3 seconds (2'04) on a rather slow track. Second 1500 ever for her, first was in Inzell a few weeks back (2'07) with what seemed like very good conditions.   It means a lot of room for improvement and a good sign for the 3000 which is her real strong event at the moment - she lacks basic speed but had one of the fastest final laps today, 10th over Div A and B. Faster last than penultimate lap must be quite unusual too.
    • When? I understand this is a joke about this great job 
    • The same thing happened after Turin 2006. That hall later was never used for skating competitions again, only the Indoor ECH in athletics was organized there once in 2009 and that was it. After that it was only used for commercial fairs etc. It will be the same with Milan. Regarding the indoor arena in Collalbo, it was a great idea to make it an Italian center of skating sports for many years: good location, high altitude, tourist town. Well, but according to the organizers, it`s not worth doing it, but why? Why is`t not worth doing anything here but Germany has a similar track in Inzell and it is possible there? They should hire a good manager who will develop a plan for them to make it worth doing. The same is with the bobsleigh track in Cortina. It was also not worth renovating it and if Salvini's and other big politics and determination hadn`t come into it, the competition would probably have been in Austria or St. Moritz.   The cooperation with the Netherlands is probably only supposed to concern short track. Besides, this cooperation will not do anything if we don`t have at least one indoor track for training in the summer and early autumn. The Dutch Federation isn`t a charity and will not build us infrastructure for free so that we can train on it. There are no miracles. It`s probably more about taking advantage of the opportunity to train with someone like Fontana, who is a legend in short track. After 2026 this cooperation will end, when she leaves.
