:AUT Lamparter can make up 26 seconds to Greiderer? I assume Japanese will struggle in cross country as usual.

Definitely, Rydzek is the big question mark. If he is remotely close to his best in cross-country skiing, then he should win it.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

TV air time! Two round of jumping will be ~2h + 40min of run, sadly nobody get time to broadcast this.

I'm afraid in Slovakia it's better off being ice hockey player #856 than ski jumper #1? :p

Expand  

Yeah, sadly bellow zero interest in this sport here. Which is really sad, because I love this sport a lot, was the first winter sport I started to watch and immediatelly fell in love with it since the Bjarte Engen Vik era, but sometimes I feel like I am the only one in Slovakia... Even the schedulled ski jumping part today was cut off from our TV to have like a 30 minutes studio before the hockey match between russia and switzerland. so yeah that´s it...

 

At least I have czech TV and eurosports

So Riiber is still not clear? What a bummer this could turn out for him. More than Kramer, who was very good only this season, while he has been dominating for 4 years.

Although the past few weeks might have shown he had peaked a little wrong...but we'll never know I guess.

Or just change the point calculations a little if it's that unfair now (which I don't think it is) :p
