heywoodu 13,560 Posted February 17, 2020 #472 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I would like an 'Ugh' reaction. Since we don't have it, I'll just go 'Ugh'. Ugh.

It’s how we cure disease, come up with new technology, etc. That’s what set you and me apart. I move forward towards the future, while you stand still. I think wind compensation points were a good compromise to a difficult issue. Wind having an effect in outdoor sport? That's not an issue, It's called Mother Nature Biathlon enters 100+ athletes in World Cup and even more in IBU Cup thru junior events. If someone wants to fix something that is not broken it's an automatic "NO" from me. If we have like 60 athletes from 8 countries in biathlon World Cup then you might call for a change. But not when we have 100+ competitors from 20+ nations. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s between 190-220 countries in the world depending upon your beliefs, 25-30 seems rather low. While 100 countries can’t reasonably compete, the number still seems low then. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Mostly practical stuff like, have recycling drives at events, clean up after yourself, clean up the bullets, cut down less trees when making trails, etc. “Sport has the power to change the world.
