So apparently Evenepoel is a football school dropout. :p

Sort of :p

 

He played in Anderlecht's youth, then went to the youth of PSV (NED) and back to Anderlecht, meanwhile playing in Belgium's youth teams. At Anderlecht troubles with the coach led to him not being selectd anymore, so he moved to smaller KV Mechelen, where he quickly lost interest in football and decided to start racing (April last year :d). Started with a 10th place on a regular road bike in a time trial against guys who had been racing for several years and then went on to destroy every junior :p

It's still better than when they had Longo and a bunch of no-names ;)

Like someone who won more Olympic gold medals than Longo :p

The GPS in the end was only around 95% wrong :) Saying Van Vleuten was 12-13 seconds faster than Van der Breggen, which turned out to be nearly half a minute :lol:

I don't follow cycling on daily basis, you probably means van Morsel - what's her full name? (I never remember that).

Leontien Zijlaard - Van Moorsel (I think in that time it was still just Leontien van Moorsel). Who had the 2004 road race gold in her hands with a show of force in that race, until she was in the front of the pack, looked back and clipped a wheel, and fell. Few days later instead of being in the hospital, she won the ITT gold :p

    • She's quite well-known in the world of alpine skiing, and besides, she's had several serious injuries and always returned to a high level. Now, for me, she has a chance to win a medal in the giant slalom on OG.

    • Here you have statesmen and old leaders that's why we were the leaders back then, and the USSR fell apart.   And who said I support Trump? I have never even been in USA in my life... Personally, I think he's a clown, but he unfortunately show the decline of our entire Western World- of which the USA was a leader for a long time.    
    • Latvia seriously attacking the anti-record in WJCh history with the fewest shots on goal in a game    4 SOG after 48 minutes is really quite atrocious stat  
    • My personal favorite in Canadian athlete is Valerie Grenier. She's so likeable and sweet
    • Canada had a great home-boost in 2010. Unfortunately, that's not the case in us – look at 2006... We won fewer medals in Torino 2006 than in 2002 (11 vs. 13)
    • Short-track is unpredictable and ridden by bullshit refs who give out weird penalties and home-advantage calls to favour the home athletes. Women’s hockey, we aren’t beating the US this time around, the rivalry series went horribly and I’d be happy if we can hang on to silver. It was that bad.    Freestyle skiing team, a lot of them have been getting injured our ski cross contenders (Hoffos, who was in the best form of her career, Sherret), Kingsbury, Oldham... Then you have Blouin, and reigning World Champion Liam Brearley in snowboarding, 2024 world champion in skeleton Hallie Clarke, and 2023 world champion in ski jumping Alexandria Loutitt who are all out injured for the season.   I don’t think you have anything to worry about, Italy will have a nice home boost and win 5-6 golds, but yeah that would’ve been pretty bad for us even before our entire team getting injured. I still view it as a disappointment either way. 
    • Do you have short track, freestyle, snowboardcross, hockey x2? You'll definitely win 5-6 gold medals. If you want, I'll gladly sign now for Italy to win 5-6 gold medals in February... Canada has at least 3 girls competing for medals in the long distances, and we only have 1 Lollobirigida- also quite old.
    • team is seriously in shambles and I wouldn’t be surprised if we only win a few bronzes or slightly better at Milano-Cortina…   Our men are nonexistent, Dubreuil still is awful coming back from injury and nowhere near his 2021-22 form, he’d be lucky to get a top 16 finish. Jan-Bloemen is old and his 5,000m WC podium was a fluke, at best it’ll be a top 8 finish in each event. For the women, Weidemann won’t beat Groenewoud/Wiklund in the 5km/10km and Blondin with Groenewoud (probably, she beats her all the time) or Mangianello in the mass start, and Maltais can only aim for a minor medal at best. We don’t even have our team pursuit anymore, used to be by far the best and now we’re getting beaten by Netherlands/Japan…
