Dude, its SchwingenschlÖgel, show some respect for the walking alphabet.

Or maybe, since the Italian swimming team was absolutely bad for years, now better athletes are coming?

Yeah, especially Codia is a great talent ...

Sorry, i forgot, italians live at home until they are 40-45 years old, so its normal for them to only start improving in their late 20s.

Pellegrini :facepalm:Great champion but she is not anymore world class athlete.

She has to go back to 200 free and use the same training strategy as the other italians, then she will be unbeatable in 2020.

Why is peaking miserably like the Dutch normal, but peaking exactly perfect like the Italians now strange? :p 

Weird definition of peaking you have, me thinks ...

Yes, it is definitely. We can eat very well and this preserve us from getting older. 

 

Now, let's assume for a second that you may be right: why did you said that you would like that all other countries should adopt the same system, instead of saying that doped athletes had to be punished? Did you get a violation while writing on some Italian monument?

How angry are the italians for not making the mixed relay final now. No Codia, Miressi or Scozzoli  this morning and no final, genius thinking. :facepalm: 

 

with Codia swimming this morning's heats in the relay, he would have not won the individual race...that's sure...better like it's gone...

 

p.s. however, we could have used Restivo in the backstroke leg and Burdisso in the fly leg...in that case, we surely would have qualified for the final...and then, who knows?

 

p.p.s. in any case, nobody seems really caring about that fail, after the unexpected rain of gold medals we enjoyed earlier this afternoon...:lol:

    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
