Rough for Mona Brorsson :( Swedish women's team is the hardest to get into at this moment. 

I think she is still recovering from illness.  I might be mistaking her with someone else ... but I did remember reading an article about her.

Vanessa Hinz quit, injured or demoted?

 

Edit: nevermind, saw her in ibu cup thread

Hinz was sick and injured in the preparation, and could not prevail against Frühwirth, Schneider and Weidel in the test races now. Therefore, she must first in the IBU Cup.

This is weird - Eurosport / Discovery schedules for next week do not show any biathlon.  Surely nobody is going to do anything stupid….:question:

Seems there have been intense last minute negotiations going on.  Think of the cemetery gunfight scene in The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.  Anyway, deal done.  :surprise:

Discovery have done a lot of stupid things, so it wouldn't have been surprising for me. Thankfully we have dodged the gunslinger this time, but the article didn't specify how long is the "multi-year deal"

it should be 4 years, through the 2025/2026 season (but the only article naming the lenght of the agreement is behind a pay-wall, so I can't read it in its entirety).

:ITA Lukas Hofer is out of the 1st World Cup stage (and maybe even more than that) because he has an inflammation of the tibial tendon of the left leg. :cry:

 

he also had a lot of troubles through the whole Summer, so I fear it's gonna be a very difficult season for him (and considering that Windisch and Bormolini stopped their career at the end of last season, I fear it's gonna be a very difficult season for the whole Italian men's team). :facepalm:

    • In cross-country there were never mixups like that. And trust me, the cross-country calendar/results page has been one of my most visited pages on all the internet for a few years now, for obvious reasons

    • More AI visualizations of the venues.         
    • I can count for you, but what I will say is that I don't think it was a lot. 
    • Off-topic, when I lived in Beijing there was a park across the street that had all the 2022 pictograms along its fence on the street. They were big and lit up at night. It was really cool, especially because the 2022 pictograms were very unique and creative. 
    • They're not very creative or unique to Italy/Milano, but like others have said, at least they're understandable unlike Paris. These are very generic, though. 
    • National law and sport rules are completely different. Like, there's a law in Canada that if you punch someone in the face you will get charged with battery. But if you're playing hockey and do it, you'll only get 5 minutes in a penalty box. Japan only recognizes gender at birth and this was not an issue in 2020(1).    Any law Trump and the Republicans pass can only apply to governmental organizations, i.e. school competitions. Private sport events, like the NHL, MLB and the Olympics, can still decided who can and cannot participate in what events. If the NHL wants a female goaltender to play, they can do that tomorrow if they want. If the IOC decides Semenya can participate in the female category, then that's their right as a private entity. I'm sure Hitler wasn't happy that Jews, black people and other groups were allowed to participate in 1936, either.    Of course, I've been saying for a long time they should do away with "male" and "female" categories and just have "Over/Under X amount of testosterone" categories. 
    • Yeah, if they have all their FTA* live streams on one page, announced in advance, life will be easier. Before you had to sub to about 7 or 8 YT channels to.know what was on every week.   But the results/events Page is also easier, because previously they used to mix up World Cup & say, Balkan Cup events together.
    • UWW's new rules for change of nationality   this doesn't look great for likes of Bahrain, Albania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Serbia and few more.    still it won't make a huge huge impact for the next Olympic cycle because each NOC still can use 2 mercenaries per style in each tournament but after 2028 it will be reduced to just 1.    some of those countries already have 3 or 4 (or more) Russian mercenaries per style. from now on they have to pick 2 of them for each tournament. I assumed the new rule applies to previous mercenaries too . https://cdn.uww.org/2024-11/change_of_nationality_regulation_eng_oct2024_final.pdf also you can't wrestle for another country without a passport. (UWW allowed that for some years) current non-national wrestlers can continue like that until the end of 2026 though.   it could be better but in general I'm OK with new rules. good job by UWW. 
    • Roki Sasaki has been posted for MLB transfer. Dodgers vs everyone else Part 175?
