Well, I used to cheer for :TKM, being underdogs and all.

 

But it's impossible to be their fan anymore after witnessing that travesty called Ashgabat 2017. That was beyond pathetic.

I removed all non-Olympic events that I could. For clarification weightlifting was left as is while in karate I only removed the lightest weightclass as I cannot combine the two heavier weightclasses.

What happened there? I think I missed that due to time difference and live stream problems or a lack of interest or something :p

I decided to watch the YEM-TKM wrestling match after all the fuss around here.

I know nothing about wrestling but I wish it was like Judo, when the match is over once you throw the opponent on their back. It was sad to watch the guy getting thrown then being rolled over like a dumpling in hot oil.

I can't believe North Korea will probably lose the silver medal on women's artistic gymnastics. Japan was solid but the North Korean girls were fantastic.

      Summer Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 Qualification Systems

      By MHSN · Posted

      Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health.

      International Olympic Committee News

      By Gianlu33 · Posted

      Off to Milan for the 145th session of the International Olympic Committee. Although the agenda has not been published yet, there shouldn’t be any major items over these two days, apart from the election of a member of the IOC Executive Board. This will be the eighth time the session is held in Italy, the last one being during the Turin 2006 Olympic Games.
