Honestly wouldn't mind Jamaican skier getting kicked out after all his bragging. But will not happen. You can cheat and get away with it. Vanessa Mae set the precedent. ahjfcshfghb 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted January 24, 2022 #182 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Funny how gender equality gets thrown in the garbage as soon as some big nation gets angry. NearPup and Monzanator 2 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,590 Posted January 24, 2022 #183 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Yeah, everyone knows this gender equality stuff is political bullshit. If Austria wants the full quota they sure got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafalgorka 1,369 Posted January 24, 2022 #184 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Goggia has a new post on Instagram. It doesn't look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted January 24, 2022 #185 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Belgium suddenly refused a women's quota which got offered to Japan (TBC). Few more withdrawals (for example from Germany and Sweden), and the reallocation system will just snap here. Some British skiers ranked #370 are already appearing on the wait list... https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/v2/quota/list/owg/al/2022 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafalgorka 1,369 Posted January 24, 2022 #186 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Olympics without Goggia???!!! I'm so disappointed. From her instagram today: "Se questo è il piano che Dio ha riservato per me, altro non posso fare che spalancare le braccia, accoglierlo e accettarlo. E andare avanti." "If this is the plan that God has reserved for me, I can only open my arms, welcome it and accept it. And go on." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted January 25, 2022 #187 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Japan declined. Unique chance for Romania to enter two weekend-skiers now, since Caill appears to be absent for some reason. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hckošice 13,200 Posted January 25, 2022 #189 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Breezy Johnson as expected out of the Olympics due injury, crash in Cortina in the last DH training was at the end too costly for the biggest US speed events chance in Beijing Ted and rafalgorka 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Caill is not on the list for this Olympics because she has some “fights” with our President of the Ski federation Puiu Gaspar(the same president who says Edith Miklos is not good enough for Romania and she did not have any potential) https://newsbeezer.com/romaniaeng/ania-caill-romanias-best-female-skier-was-not-included-in-the-list-for-the-winter-olympics/ here is the story. rafalgorka and dcro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
