Looks as though here we'll have both Eurosport Player, which will remain until at least early 2022, and Discovery+. Not sure whether one or the other will have more streams, but it does appear that the Player will still remain an option at least for Tokyo.

 

I might get a month subscription for Discovery+ (I mean, I'll get two fewer bottles of guaraná this month and the money is back) just to try it out and get used to it in case I do have to suddenly switch :d 

We should start a crowdfunding campaign…. “Raise funds for Totallympians to reach their dreams of watching hours of coverage of the Olympics”

I didn’t see Ireland mentioned but I thought for us is was going to be on l Discovery+. I still don’t have certainty on whether it will be on the Eurosport player or Discovery in Ireland,l. I’ll probably end up subscribing to Discovery just to be sure :wall:

well, Ireland is not mentioned there, but the article claims 11 european markets, so who know ?

 

Anyway, you still have time, In the coming days there will be more informations I believe, so you can still wait a bit and see. or do you think the price will raise every day coming to the games ?  :d

Reporting from America (the continent)

 

About options of legal streams here in North America.

 

FIRST, consider having a VPN, this has been my source to watch everything and at a reasonable price, right now I am using MULLVAD VPN and I recomend Windscribe, with those two cheap options you will be safe, hey with windscribe you could even chose single or specific servers like only wanting to pay for USA, Spain and the UK (they have 30 countries) each is one dollar per month. Mullvad has about 30 countries to choose from and is like 6 dollars a month and is non auto renew.

 

USA: For streams of NBC, forget about it unless you are client of an internet/tv/satellite/cable company based in the US, the NBC streams will be unlocked to those who provide their user credentials. 

 

Canada: CBC Sports, usually they do very very well with their streaming. In Rio and Pyeongchang they had a dedicated olympic website with Live and On Demand streams of every sport, every session, english commentary or no commentary. I am very confident this time they will do the same and have everything live and VOD for later watching. High quality streams.

 

Mexico: We will have Clarosports with almost same scenario of CBC Canada, live feeds for every sport, every session with the on demand option. Plus they will have another 4 live channels via Youtube with spanish commentary (sorry but many of our commentators are bad but if you dont speak spanish then no problem).

 

My advice? buy one month of the vpn I recommend and I will put in time the link for the Canadian and Mexican websites where you will be able to catch the action

My hope is that Eurosport will allow on demand for everything it broadcasts. With the time zone it would be useful to even reschedule the television days a little.

I agree. I think it will be the best level of coverage (at least, the best coverage for the type of person that goes on Totallympics) that I've ever seen in the UK

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

I will probably use VPN to connect from Mexico to my nbc account.  Doubt I'll be able to authenticate using hotel internet to use live feeds

Yes, you will have to get a VPN in order to be able to connect while staying in Mexico to the NBC streams

 

Also, ask in advance your hotel if they have high speed internet, last one I stayed in and though they had internet all across the hotel but the speed was soooo low

What will I need to connect to local streams?

      The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.

      Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....

      The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.

      The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR

      That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.

      How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026？

      By JockCartier · Posted

      I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird

      So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,

      The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.

      I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
