Black year for sports already. Freestyle skiing world championships, snowboarding world championships and alpine skiing world championships have all been completely pointless, all those results have absolutely zero value going forward. Maybe in another decade or two we wont have professional winter sport at all anymore.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

You don't have to watch winter sports if you dont't like it. Stop being massochist and annoying others.

I am unashamed, at getting nothing done.

First part of these World Championships was pretty terrible. Not the results and winners, of course.

 

I can't get excited with a minute of downhill/super g, no matter how excited Eurosport commentator gets.

Same here, but at least I'm kinda happy to see two greats end their career with a medal.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Yeah that was a terrible race. A one minute downhill always sucks but at least those races tend to be super close and are exciting that way but today even that wasn't the case. There was some sort of excitment when Venier and Mowinckel almost beat Vonn's time but after that it was just Stuhec easily beating Vonn, then nobody getting close to Stuhec or even the podium before Suter easily got 2nd without being really close to Stuhec. Add to that changing weather conditions so the race wasn't even fair. Of course from an Austrian perspective I'm not happy either, (2nd 4th place, no speed medal for the women after dominating the world cup downhills) but even aside from that this wasn't very enjoyable today.

    • The relation of Trump with Russia and, more specific, with Putin is probably the most controversial (being generous) thing of the presidence of Trump, i dont believe the same but is clearly that China help democrats in that election, both are playing their games.   In Argentina the society is clearly divided, the people who are in the left side of the politics, peronist and kirchnerism are very against the goverment, propably the only genuine "rigth-wing" goverment since the recovery of the democracy in 1983. For me and the most part who are in the rigth wing: libertarians, nacionalist and conservatives, is probably the best goverment we see to this days, he made in his first year with a very few legislators in the congress some big and good changes:   1) In the economical: the inflation is only 3% per month since a more of 15% in the last months of the last year, Argentina has now fiscal, financial and comercial surplus-   2) Our country didnt have fighter planes and the goverment buy 24  American F16  -   3) He chances the electoral sistem for a "single ballot" sistem, we have an obsolete electoral sistem that doesnt change from the 19 century and specially, the peronist use for make fraud.   4) In my personal case, he really update the tax sistem for smal/medium profesionals and traders.......and that save us to pay the 50% of our earnings to the state.   With a big expectations in the goverment, its better than i thinked before.
    • It could be better, or it could be much worse, for example, if the accusations that he has been accepting large amounts of money from Russia since 2017 are confirmed. Now let Harris win, which will end Trump's political career and I hope that in 4 years the Republicans will put up someone more predictable.     btw, how is this controversial president of Argentina doing?
    • More predictable is not always better, for me the goverment of Biden was one of the worst of the History of USA and i cant imagine what can happen with even a worse version like Harris is.   I hope, for the contrary, Trump be elected and "may be" the things changes for the better in the world.
    • I once read that Harris had never been to Europe before 2020, when she became vice president. On the other hand, her foreign policy will be more predictable, because it will be a continuation of Biden's policies. That is why I hope Harris wins, although the bookmakers are betting on Trump.
    • Harris is totally green on foreign policy. It will probably be a policy 100% led by Biden's people. Harris' main campaign emphasis is on abortion and women's rights.
    • So much for "everybody's laughing at us if we elect Harris"
    • My favorite tennis tournaments of the year (wta/atp finals)
    • was also invited to the special edition of the Bolivarian Games and seems like  is not participating.
    • Yeah this was amazing, the entire weekend was one massive rollercoaster every which way for everyone
