Streaming quality seems pretty good. I might have to watch a few events after the Commonwealth Games.

Yea the organizers partnered with the biggest media company here and the quality is clearly better than Asian Para Games. I personally hate the CEO but have to admit without him agreeing to cover these Games probably there won't be a stream for these Games.

Not sure about the viability, but nice to see people haven’t forgotten about the AWG.

:SVK is again European Games 2015 Athletics champions :d

 

In 2015 we won the Baku gimmick athletics competition but a month later after DSQ of :AZE Marshin (Originally 3rd in Hammer Throw (Doping)), :AUT passed to 1st plance, since their Hammer Throw athlete moved from 4th to 3rd place and thus gained 1 more point to his team, Austria had then 459 points, a half point more Than Slovakia (Our points did not change since Lomnický won the Hammer Throw competition already then)...

 

But now after 7 years our NOC and Athletics federation received a notification about the change of results, thanks to the newly confirmed DSQ for doping of Austrian Elisabeth Niederer (originally 4th in the 1500m competition, resulted in Austria losing the points from this event) and that Slovakia will regain its original Gold medal

 

So we will change the medals with Austria for the second time, first we won Gold, they won silver, 7 months later we send them the gold and they send us the silver, and now once again we will send them their silver medals and they have to send to us our gold medals :hyper::lol:

Just watching the OCA General Assembly. Saudi Arabia proposes 47 events for the 2029 AWG

 

Only Alpine skiing, Snowboarding, Freestyle skiing, Hockey, Short Track speed skating, Curling and Figure skating would be held (the ice sports would have 19 events)

    • Apparently this season will be last one in Kamil Stoch career if his results wont be enough good for his standards.
    • Such a nice one for Colturi ! That was fun. It almost looked like a script with the cameras focusing on Colturi a couple of times before her first run and showcasing the potential of youngster and she didn't disappoint.      I hope Colturi skis for Albania forever. So much fun to cheer her with the Albanian flag.    I don't get it why everyone is being so critical of Colturi, you got no right to criticize a personal decision, as most European nations use imported athletes in many sports like wrestling and cheer them on like their.   Would you spend hours criticizing Frank Chamizo for switching to Italy rather than playing for Cuba? 
    • europe will arrest Satanyahu except hungary
    • Wooow Canada    Trudeau Confirms Canada Will Arrest Satanyahu Upon Visit After World Court Order   https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ndtv.com/world-news/canada-to-go-uk-way-on-netanyahu-arrest-trudeau-says-will-abide-by-icc-warrant-7086684/amp/1   This is the response of jew lobby : we gonna destroy the canadian economy      
    • It may also be that Ceccerelli saw that the conditions in the Italian youth teams were very poor and that is why she insisted on setting up her own team (the results of young Italian skiers unfortunately confirm this). A private team will always be better than a team with 10-12 skiers with max. 3-4 coaches, a one doctor and a physiotherapist. Colturi is the only skier in her team and she has several coaches, a masseur, a doctor etc. Of course, it costs money, but since the parents are famous and have money + Red Bull got involved. I don't understand why she can't start for Italy again? Red Bull should care more that Colturi starts in Cortina under the Italian flag than the Albanian one + Red Bull, as a brand, always has a bigger sales market in Italy with a population of 60 million than in small Albania. I hope that this can still be reversed by next year. For this we need talks between the federation + Colturi's parents + Red Bull + possibly the Italian Olympic Committee. Colturi may be a skier equal to Brignone or even better in the future. We can't lose her, so we have to do now!
    • I`m very disappointed with this weekend. Only becouse of Ghiotto form I`m happy. Unfortunately, the women's team will not function well if Lollobrigida skips most of the training camps and Fontana starts alternately in short tack and long track. It will end with her not winning any medals here or there, because it`s already clear that it will be very difficult to achieve good results in long track. I hope that she understands this, because in short track she has a real chance of winning medals in the women's relay and the mixed relay but in long track not.
    • Tragic performance of the Italian women's team - last place and probably something bad happened at the start. There are so few starts in the team that it will be a problem to even qualify for the World Championships - 8 best teams. After Lollobrigida's return and Fontana's addition, I was counting on much more, but it seems that there are too few joint trainings. With individual quality, we have no right to lose to the Czechs without Sablikova, or anonymous Korea. And unfortunately this start will count for a lot, because there are only 2 more and our chances of playing at the World Championships are minimal. In my opinion with Fontana going from Short Track to Long Trackand vice versa, we won't be much use in the team. Here great teamwork is needed, not improvisation. As of today, there is very little chance that we will qualify the women's team for the games.
    • men advanced to Division A for the first time since 2018 (when they went 1-8). Don't expect much progress next year
    • Ok, but there we are talking about a person who has parents from different countries. Colturi has nothing to do with Albania.
    • There are few people here from Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Finland.
