"The best ever" Takanashi 0.5m shorter than both :POL girls! :mumble:

You have a serious problem ...

1) Why can't you let it go?

2) Why can't you accept facts?

3) What's wrong with your logical reasoning skills? One result > All other career results?

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

Russia is out of it surely, but wonderful jump from Nika Kriznar, and Slovenia is very very in the fight for the bronze.

If Prevc brothers get their shit together, then Slovenia could fight for gold in 2022, together with possibly Norway, Japan and Germany.

When you're the "best ever" you should be expected to slaughter some 17 yo juniors from Poland who have never been to World Champs before IMO.

I agree with you that Takanashi is not the best jumper ever. It's simple, IOC and WCh are most important, World Cups are only some competition between them. But in the other hand. Come on, it's only one jump you talking about. The fact that Stoch didn't advance to final round in Zakopane this year doesn't mean that he is not one of the best Polish jumper ever only because he lost that day with Wasek, Wolny or Kot ;)

6th place for :POL which is a huge result considering our women's jumping is openly ignored by our Federation since like forever. We're years behind the best despite having a good potential on the men's side. We should be sending girls to these champs pretty much since 2013 and this was the first time. Can't stand this idiot Tajner who runs our Fed. He cares more about his 20+ years younger mistresses than female ski jumpers.

And this poor Takanashi jump basically cost Japan the bronze IMO. They only lost 9.8 pts to Norway in the end. Another choke job on the global stage for her. I'm out of excuses :rolleyes:

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
