@hckosice Chris Mazder is really enjoying his adventures in Slovakia. Y’all better not be trying to convert his nationality. He’s all we have left (a little bit of a lie, but still, don’t take him).

 

Awesome, do you know where exactly ? in the Tatras I guess :)

 

This remind me, do you know that another 1 USA olympic medalist and winner is regularly spending his vacations in Slovakia, Mike Bryan, well, thanks to his slovak wife :d

Damn! You guessed exactly right. He was in/at High Tatras. He said that is not what he pictured Slovakia looking like (I think he was with your good men’s luger as well). 

 

Alright, Bahrain you can stop taking these athletes. It was funny and fine at Rory Sabitini (I’m so upset I can’t even spell right :p), but now your going to far.

1. what you mean, not what he pictured looking like ? no one tried to torture and kill him for fun in some local old fashioned dubious hostel factory ? :d

 

2. yeah, but it doesn´t always work though...we even tried Roger Federer, but his wife Mirka apparently did not accomplished her mission perfectly :p  same Adriana Sklenaříková with the former french football playmaker Karembeu few decades ago...but, you know, we are working, we have plans :whistle:

Thinking about Niki’s crash got me thinking about watching horrific crashes. I was curious to know if any other users on here have the Georgian Luger crash from 2010. It’s a surreal experience (I watched it like 2 years ago maybe, but can see it vividly in my mind still)

    • There is a saying to never trust a Russian in gymnastics. Well, ex-Russian turned Bulgarian Elvira Krasnobaeva is transferring now to Armenia.   The "official" reason is for personal, family matters, but in reality it's most likely because she wasn't selected for Paris, which angered her parents. Even though she is only 16, had her breakthrough just this year and started making mistakes, when they amped up the difficulty.   Our Federation's President Iliana Raeva said today, that she received calls also from France and Azerbaijan about Elvira's mother basically auctioning her. Raeva mentioned, that Krasnobaeva was going to be a vocal point in the next Olympic cycle, but now she can hit the road and missed her chance to ever compete for Bulgaria, even if she wanted to in the future.    We are also going to make a new Group from next season. After the disappointment in Paris, 4 out of the 5 girls announced their retirement.
    • true, but was expecting India to get troubles from Australia, not from New Zealand, and specially not by being bowled out. Makes the group phase interesting though 
    • The 4th best team in the world beating the 3rd best team in the world is not a huge surprise though.
