Falls need to be penalized more harshly. It should be an automatic -10 points everytime you fall.

 

Nah, you just don't follow skating enough. Some athletes simply have superior jumping and spinning technique, and skating skills in general. But then again, you can't see that from watching one competition.

 

Harsh penalties for falls would KILL the sport.

No, :PHI:THA:MAS have skaters that are pretty close to Olympic level. I was actually rather impressed when watching.

8/10 today.. Caught off guard with numbers of disciplines and the debut of girls' NC

If you follow the Olympic Channel on Twitter/Instagram, they give you a free answer each day. Today, they told me how many disciplines there were. I’ve read numerous articles on the women’s Nordic Combined debut so that was an easy question.

 

I do feel like I have unfair advantage being a journalist, but hey, at least I’m good at something.

I see. Nice tip.

 

I was busy watching badminton and doing the job as a contributor to a website, so no time to revise.

 

(Well.. actually after that I watched the YOG figure skating)

What website do you contribute to, and why isn’t the answer Totallympics Media? :p

 

Speaking of Totallympics Media, both of our reporters have got a perfect score on 1 quiz.

    • I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments.   Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.
    • If this were Milan from 20 years ago, it would be a success but currently it`s just a European average team and on top of that it is not in top form. Milan's defense this season resembles Swiss cheese.
    • Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.
    • Four events with medals awarded halfway into the first day, and already six NOCs are on the medal table 
    • First day of sporting action today. There's livestreams available on the official website: https://www.bolivarianos2024.pe/envivo/   PanamSports Channel should be broadcasting events as well.
    • Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).
