THE PROBLEM

is if you are still not adult, you´ll not be allowed to gamble, because according to our new strict anti-Gambling laws, you have to create an account (and here come the real problem, you have for that to send a copy of your ID Card, so  People under 18 don´t have any chance to outwit the system. If they want to watch the matches of their favorite teams, they will be left to the help of their elder relatives.

 

moreover, if you're a fan from a foreign Country (like me, for instance), if they decide that you can't have access to those broadcasts, now you can't fix the problem with a vpn and still watch your favourite sport...now, with the ID card request, there's no chance to overtake the barrier (unless a friend like @hckosice opens an account for everybody :rofl::lol:)...

Ah, right. That sounds like a bigger problem for some young people.

 

you understand, young boys all over the world follow their idols Messi, CR7, Mbappe, Neymar etc... wear their jerseys, wants one day to be like them, follow all their matches, that´s normal, I was young too and had my idols as well (one of them was Van Basten for your info), here young boys follow hockey stars, now the idiotic leaders of the league denied to those kids the chance to watch their favorite players of their club playing a match away.

 

I mean such things should remain for the National TV and their website (even paying something "normal" per month) The betting companies shouldn´t be even allowed to fight for the Streaming rights of any sport

Honestly surprised :LBN and :UZB weren’t members already. I thought they’d both played at the Asian Winter Games, but I guess that was wrong.

Great to see Ice Hockey getting bigger and bigger in different countries. I only started watching it 3 years ago with GB massive clutch to get promotion, and then this year against France to avoid relegation

So a Chinese club made up of prospective national team members lost 19-0 yesterday against a 3rd-tier Czech team (Příbram). :lol: They’re playing in that league and have lost almost every game by huge margins

In 2018/early 2019 China has also played a bunch of friendlies against 3rd-7th tier Swiss clubs. They've only won 6 of the 27 games they played. 

Here's the results: https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.233.5/44c.cc0.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/China-Men-Unofficial-Results-1.pdf

 

I do think it was a mistake to allow China a free quota at the next Winter Olympics.

    • They do have the by far best current Dutch NHL player though  
    • Took a couple of videos, but completely forgot to take even a single picture and the file size of the videos are too big for Totallympics so I had to find a site to upload it to   https://streamable.com/ga23lv   Vibes at the game were good, place was loud, and I downed a $6 poutine from Costco before the game. Unfortunately, the game didn’t go so well, it took us a solid 45 minutes to actually start playing hockey besides some bursts here and there, and after coming back from down 1-3 we gave up the OT goal less than a minute in (Typical Canucks fashion), but  Lankinen stole us a point, they had so many solid opportunities on him and we had no business staying close.    Really mediocre start to the season for the Canucks so far, even with 11 points in 8 games, a lot of players not showing up (Petey, Soucy, Myers, Hög, Miller, DeBrusk, although for DeBrusk he’s been known to have a streaky game) and our power play and overtime have been fucking dogshit (power play has been like this for years). Shoutout to Garland, Hughes, Sherwood and Lankinen though they’ve been incredible so far 
    • Hi I see this now. When is the draw? What do you need me to do? 
    • North Korea and the US played the first semifinal at the U17 World Cup last night:      
    • Happy New York Yankees elimination day to those who celebrate!   
    • Sorry, I was at work. Starting tomorrow thru Sunday is busy busy days here with Halloween, All Saints Day, Día de Muertos, so I might no be around the whole weekend. Good thing the final got postponed.
    • Announcement   It is with regret that I have to postpone the final till at least 10th November. This is not a fixed date and is likely to be moved to the following week. The delay is due to jurors not having voted yet and preparations on the final weekend still not having been completed. The draw is still set to take place tomorrow but there is chance this could be moved day by day until preparations are complete.    With this latest announcement @Gianlu33 and @LDOG if you would like to rejoin the contest with this recent change then you are more than welcome to do so. 
    • While we're waiting, let me casually drop the music from the two countries I mentioned earlier. I wasn't sure if Mongolia has ever been featured in a festival of music segment, but East Timor / Timor Leste never has, plus I've been watching their English-language TV stations lately, hence the choice for both countries   Anyway, here's       And     I haven't decided on two other countries, but I'll get back to you on that
    • Haven't done this in a while.   Count me in, I'm game.
    • I just need you to pick 2 teams from each of my tables once I've set them up, should be ready to go in 15 minutes (taking longer than I thought) and hopefully by then more people will volunteer so that we can get things moving quickly.
