Alejandra Contras told me there was work going on behind the scenes to get sport climbing added when I interviewed her at the Pan American Championships. She should have a shot at a medal, so I’m happy for her. I also love sport climbing, so I’m happy for me too.

 

Also, fuck bodybuilding over bowling, squash, and racquetball :mad:

 

Exactly, bodybuilding is just legal competitive sports doping.

Its because there is no venue that has to be built (it shares with weightlifting). THe other 3 require new venues in CHile.

 

Well, all three could be staged at private venues, just ask the respective PanAm federations to contribute to the cost of leasing the venues.

As I have written in this article, the World Masters Games, a massive sporting event in Japan in May, 2021 will be the canary in the coal mine for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics in 2021.

I am definitely familiar with canaries in coal mines, but I had never actually heard it used as an expression. Already loving this event now :d

No multi-sports games in 2020. I don’t know how many years it’s been since we’ve had a year without a multi-sports games :(

Oh right :d

 

Doesn’t make the rest of my year any better, but that does save the year as a whole a little bit. To be completely honest, it feels like Lausanne 2020 was over a year ago at this point.

It depends... if you count the start of the decade on 2020 and a start of century on 2000, why not start the year from February...

Ok, but when did February start in this combination? :d

    • Probably 0% but in 1939 Germans reached the outskirts of Warsaw after only eight days (the border was more to the east than it is now i.e. they had less ground to cover). The ugly truth is NATO would most likely bide their time in response so the entire eastern Poland would be a battle field for a while.
    • What was the Italian conflict? I can't quite remember.
    • And is there any chance that the Polish president would have escape within the first 2-3 days of war? Probably 0%. In 1939, the authorities escaped, but after an attack from 2 sides, the first being the German attack.
    • Hmm, and were they wanted to capture Kyiv in three days? Since middle of 2022, their run has been slow, so I don't think they'll be using any rapid maneuvers on the future. They surprised Ukraine at the very beginning on the war and were close to success. Zelenskyy only needed to flee the country in the first 2 or 3 days of the war. And Russia could have counted on this happening, because Zelenskyy wasn't an experienced politician or soldier and could have do however they wanted. In my opinion, Zelensky's role in Putin's plan ruined everything for them- he, as a populist and inexperienced man, was to escape from Kiev in the first few days of the war. Then Russia would have put in one of its own- Yanukovych? and Europe and the USA would probably have approved that.
    • Fortifications could only work for illegal immigrants but not against drones. We're wasting missiles worth millions of euro to shoot down drones worth 10k. It's anyone's guess how quickly Russians would reach Vistula River if the invasion came from two sides (Kaliningrad & Belarus). It would be days and not weeks...
    • Shocking news 😔 We just saw him competing 2 days ago in Annecy. 
    • Yes, and Ukraine is very important to Putin- far more important than the Baltic states, Georgia or even Poland. Without Ukraine, the restoration of the former USSR will be impossible for Putin. Another thing is that with pro-Russian Ukraine, Poland will have its entire eastern and northern border (Kaliningrad) with unfriendly countries except Lithuania, so it will basically have to militaries the all entire eastern part of Poland and build various fortifications there.
    • After all, it's one thing to dislike someone, even to destroy something (if it remains a rumor, which it usually is), and quite another to steal money... In the Italian national team there was the Wierer vs. Vittozzi conflict, in the polish team in Sochi 2014 there were accusations of various strange things: destroying a skies, rifle, etc., but theft is a serious crime, not just some rumors.
    • Stalin got Karelian Peninsula and Viborg and that was enough. Land invasion from Finland made no sense 60 yrs ago and makes even less sense in 2020s.   Finland isn't that important strategically even when it comes to Baltic Sea. U need to control Danish straits to control the Baltic. Warsaw Pact had an invasion plan of Denmark for this one reason.    Likewise Mediterranean Sea was no priority for Stalin. SU wasn't a naval power back in the day.
