Chung and Son are here to avoid military service rather than because asian games are important for them :p

 

This are the most important games after the olympics (a bit better in overall level than pan american), a pity that it will be hard to watch.

Wrong. Chung is already an Asian Games gold medalist. he is here because his country wants more gold medals.

 

but yeah everybody knows about Son's military service story. it's just impossible to gather best football teams for such competition at this time of the year. obviously there should be other reasons involved.

 

even about Son. he is coming only because his country cares A LOT about one more gold in football. otherwise they should not even use averaged players which gives that option to Son. as I said before some countries use their U21 squad here preparing for the Olympic qualifiers.

Sort of like Wikipedia, with the difference that Wikipedia is available for more people? :p 

I use it mostly to help explain my passion to people, or as a hobby to do in my free time, or as a way to help those less informed follow along. I’ll share the pdf when the games finish (at least the replays part).

So Malaysia sent a 11 year old skater to the games. However, the hosts (Indonesia) are not to be outdone since they sent a 9 year old to the games.

Agreed, but I think it should have some kind of qualification for team sports - like in Football, for instance, in which 20+ teams is really unnecessary.

And it will be worse because the dumb broadcaster of Rio 2016 in Indonesia is the right holder for broadcasting...

 

I don't know whether the official channel will stream something: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7oWYw9vZbkDwCi81hJpZTQ/videos

 

If there is no streaming, you have to get an Indonesian VPN then go to vidio.com (yes, not video)

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
