It doesn't develop around the world and there's only the same 4 teams with the same expected result.

 

Women's ice hockey has more rotation. :d 

It’s not like baseball, cricket, or flag football are much better though. I think those four are the “frontrunners” from what I can discern. 
 

LA28 has held their cards very close though, so who knows? :dunno:

Cricket is still the most diverse among them with any of the top 14 teams able to beat other and then if you consider suprises like the then 20th rank Namibia beating Sri Lanka at T20 WC who won Asia Cup a month ago or even the world cup finalist England and Pakistan losing to 10th and 11th ranked Ireland and Zimbabwe at the same WC.  Pakistan reached semis only bcz the Dutch stunned South Africa. Can you tell me such instances in those 4 sports ? I mean outside the Americas I guess it's difficult

Quotas-wise, that's not possible unless IOC change its rules.

    • I'm all in favor of this and it was about time. Wrestling has become table tennis 2.0 and in some cases even worse. In European Championships from 20 wrestlers in a weight you were seeing 7-8 foreigners. Yes, it's mostly Russians, but there are also Ukrainians, Georgians, Cubans being naturalized.    I've said it numerous times, that i don't approve the tactic our federation started of naturalizing people left and right. Which actually wasn't paying off that much, until the Olympics. If it leads to worse results, than it's just a wakeup call for the destruction of our wrestling system (which has been evident for 15 years).

    • New season streams are posted for the weekend if you need to get your schedule organised.     Remember, it's a double bill from Pyeongchang  on Saturday and Sunday this weekend, then a single race from  next weekend. No bobsleigh yet, so I guess they will get double races with no skeleton later in the season.      There were two Asian Cup races on the Pyeongchang track last weekend, and another scheduled for tomorrow, so no excuses for poor performance, everybody should be used to it by now.     IBSF Bobsleigh & Skeleton - YouTube
    • races also on Saturday and Sunday.  These are sometimes FTA, other times you will need your VPN.   Skidskytte: Idre | SVT Play
    • So here we are....pre-season races ready to go.  Always important for the big teams to get some last minute promotions for the first trio of pre-Christmas World Cup races, or even for club skiers to get some kind of promotion into a professional training group.      races on Saturday and Sunday morning.  Usually these are globally free to air live, although you sometimes have to wander round a bit to find the right link.   Sport - NRK TV
    • Anyway, for those who were following this discussion a few weeks ago,  has an excellent chance of first-ever World Cup podiums, possibly even wins, this weekend.  Roche Silveira won and was second in two full-scale rehearsal races last weekend, and has two chances in Pyeonchang on Saturday and Sunday. Then Pinheiro Braathen has another chance in the Levi slalom on Sunday.
