What are remaining big events this year? I guess it's no multi sport event but then I can't see many big events this year individually. 

Summer Gymnasiade in China in the Summer, so that will be cancelled. 
 

Our last hope is the 2020 Asian Beach Games. Those are scheduled to be held in November, so not impossible...

Even if China does well then also not sure if athletes will want to travel like just imagine their mind - I'm going to China, wait what no I'm scared..

Oh fuck, I just realized this is probably an April Fools joke. Now it makes a lot more sense why the media weren’t given any materials on this ?

So I’ve been on sprint break all week, which has basically meant I watch a few videos and spend the rest of my days updating my results collection (as well as my “cool shit” collection (things like spectator guides, posters, random artwork, mascots, etc.). This week I’ve managed to archive the results from the 2015 Pan Am Games, 2010 and 2013 CISM Winter Military Games, 2012 Winter YOG, and half of the 2015 Parapan American Games (before web archive decided to take a giant puke on itself). Now I’m working on the 2010 Summer YOG, and it’s so funny to see how far we’ve come in ten years. First off there’s no mention of “urban” sports. Plus, the website was actually geared education, having fun, etc. (instead of being a stereotypical multi-sports website like Lausanne2020). But the thing that caught my attention the most was the section for 2010 YOG Mascot MSN emoticons :d. We’ve really come a long ways just based off that. To be honest, I’m not even quite sure what MSN is...(but I know it was popular when I was younger).

@intoronto ITG is reporting that Hamilton has become the preferred Commonwealth Games bid candidate for Canada! Now they’ll decide rather to go for 2026 or 2030. Personally I prefer 2030 for very obvious reasons (the first edition of the games were held there 100 years earlier), so hopefully that’s what they go with.

2026 would also not be preferred I would assume. World Cup 2026 will be here and without a doubt all the media attention will go there.

    • grab the final men’s quota so arguably the top two favourites on each side qualified 
    • I thought that was the case.  I just started watching skimo last year, but even then, I didn't recognize any of the women.  I recognized the top Swiss guy, I think.
    • Puripol Boonson seizes home men's 100m sprint gold after going sub-10 seconds in heats   https://www.olympics.com/en/news/sea-games-athletics-mens-100m-final-results-puripol-boonson   First Southeast Asian to go under ten seconds in the 100 meters.
    • Yes, that and a lot of the main medal contenders  either didn't have teams entered/or fielded B-C teams
    • Write-up on the Gisin story.   Olympic champion Gisin undergoes cervical spine surgery after crash
    • Seriously wish Bialystok will be banned from any European competition and for long time.
    • Unexpected boost for Team .  They are at least going to have a credible excuse if anyone fails any drug tests.     American rapper Snoop Dogg has been named an 'honorary coach' for Team USA at next year's Winter Olympics.   The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) announced on Thursday the 54-year-old will take on "a volunteer role celebrating and supporting America's athletes off the field of play".   Snoop Dogg named 'honorary coach' for Team US at Winter Olympics - BBC Sport
    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
