News Flash:  Team Event won't happen today.  May not happen at all.  

This would be the first cancelled winter Olympic event since 1928(!).

I'd been thinking the same thing for the last hour or so,  Although, in 1928 it was too warm.

Has any summer Olympic event been altogether canceled 'recently'?

Not to my knowledge, but I have a better grasp of Winter Olympic history than of Summer Olympic history.

Someone just cited to Olympic Charter Bylaw 32 which basically says you can't hold an Olympic event outside the 16 day duration of ther Games.  Its being speculated they could hold the Team Event at the World Cup Finals in March.

1932 Equestrian Team Jumping was cancelled but not because of weather.  To explain, it was held simultaneously with Individual, but no team completed the event with the required number of riders so no medals were awarded.

Technically, you could say every event in the 1940 SOG was cancelled.

More trivia, sorry, in 1968 and 1998, the 4-man bobsled was shortened due to weather.  Two runs wre cancelled in 1968, one run in 1998.

Women’s snowboard slopestyle in 2018 didn’t have qualifying. What would have been qualifying was used as a (farcical) final instead.

That event was about like the halfpipe tonight. Not a lot of clean runs.

      Your most ever at a Summer Olympics was 14 golds, 20 would be a big increase even with the new sports  I’d say out of them, only costal rowing has a chance of gold, and flag football a medal if they can qualify.    Wouldn’t breaking the 14 from 1984 be a good for Italy? I’d say so. They can’t all convert after all, and you’ve been hovering in the 8-13 range for a while (although Italy has gotten better the past two)   For Canada at least, 11+ golds would be amazing, anything else would be a bonus. We won 9 in Tokyo which is our highest total ever.

      Personally, I'm really looking forward to Japan's performance in the World Cup. From the current situation, Japan has a very distinctive playing style. They have strong tactical ideas whether facing European teams or South American teams. However, Japan has never won a knockout match in the World Cup. As someone who has been following Asian football for a long time, I really admire Japanese football.

      Italy didn't qualify again.    Well, now all that's left is for Germany to be eliminated again in the group stage and we'll guarantee another 4 years of "Brazil, the only five-time champion in history, nobody is bigger than Brazil, respect our history and blah blah" that we use on the internet.

      Failing to qualify for the World Cup once can be put down to bad luck or other reasons, but missing out three times in a row must be due to an all-round gap. I feel sorry for Italy.

      Italians can only blame themselves. Serie A has been run by foreigners more than any other Top 5 domestic league. There are zero global stars not named Donnarumma. This is the weakest Italian crop of players I can remember and it's not even close.   As for Poland, our defense did a terrible job. Unlike the much-maligned Michniewicz & Probierz who often parked the bus, Urban completely run out of BS luck since errors proved too numerous & too costly.

      Okay, but defeats to Macedonia and Bosnia are unacceptable. Above all, let Italians start playing in Italian clubs... Look at Milan or Como...  Another think is the old and ugly stadiums - Türkiye or Poland currently have much better infrastructure than we do.

      Problem is, that the current funding system of Italian sports - since 2018- relies on football paying the lion's share through taxes (around 70% of the sum that is redistributed). So the rest is strong until it can draw money from football, which in turn makes football weaker and less able to generate money and then who knows.

      I prefer our current strong sport at all and weak football than a lucky promotion and defeat at the World Cup, as in 2010 or 2014. Sinner, Brignone, or Antonelli are worth 100 times more than losers like Bastoni.

      if tonight's humiliation means 20+ gold and 50+ total medals in 2 years time in LA, I'll take it 1 billion times    and I'd never change the emotions of the 2 Olympic weeks in Milan (and the other sites) with just another average soccer world cup
