hckošice 13,217 Posted December 4, 2022 #12 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Ninis So close of Top 10 (Well, in theory it is a Top 10, even a Top 6 in the Sprint, but I have hard time to take this sprint stuff seriously, the classical individual race is more prestigious ) Also nice 13th place to start the season for Veverčák/Zmij, I really wish a good season for them, they had to pass very hard times after what they did to our relay in Beijing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grassmarket 2,749 Posted December 8, 2022 #13 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I notice on YouTube that we are now going to be treated to an official FIL pre-game show! In fact two! I’m guessing some sort of coverage of the Nations Cup, plus celebrity interviews (well, to the extent that those luge riders who haven’t done TV reality shows are celebrities).

heywoodu 13,540 Posted December 12, 2022 #14 Share Posted December 12, 2022 This feels like there's a luge game where you can't change the name of the player, so you're listed as 'You' phelps, hckošice, intoronto and 3 others 6 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!

dcro 10,179 Posted December 16, 2022 #15 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Park City is hosting this week. I will definitely tune in as it is a nice track not seen very often. But what a dreadful season this appears to be. Men's singles field must be at the record low. There are like 10 more spare places left unclaimed in the Nations Cup. And don't get me started on the women's doubles. Grand total of 8 crews, 5 of whom contain athletes from singles. Totally not worthy of the Olympic inclusion. Britcher/Sweeney qualified for the WC in Park City by virtue of getting DQ'd in the NC race. They didn't even include women's doubles in the relay last week. I guess there would be no point in having like 2 teams. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
