Russia-Ukraine Crisis Consequences in Sports

People in the UK barely know what’s happening in the UK BUT sport and Russias war in Ukraine are both way, way, way down the list of priorities

 

 

There will be a “boycott” in the sense that we only send a low-ranking official to the Opening Ceremony, but the Team will go.

Any nation besides Ukraine won't boycot unless maybe when Ukraine asks them. And even then it is only maybe at best.

 

What I think is most problematic is that many of these Russian athletes could have doped themselves to hell and back the last years because there was no regulation whatsoever. Really helps in training. On the other hand, missing relevant international competition really sets back, so maybe it evens out.

It doesn't even out, they could have doped with whatever they wanted and noone could check it, this is huge advantage to them

My only hope is that when an European-Union NOC athlete will get gold and BLRUS athlete will get silver and/or bronze, olympic officials will not try to force/encourage them to have a photo together on the top of the podium at the end of the medal ceremony... if someone wants to do it, it is his life and his photos, but i don't want to see all these hostesses waving their hands to encourage them to stand closer to one another...

The Olympics is struggling for hosts. 2036 is inevitably going to end in Saudi at this rate. 

Or worse.

It be a full on boycott I suspect. Will be a way for the British Goverment to show its strength.

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
