Also, hosting olympics to win no medals would be too sad, so I hope it's just some wacky rumor :p it's not possible to make elite athletes from ground zero in just 8 years.

U can naturalize some athletes in this period and win medals :d

Calgary’s bid to host 2026 Olympic Winter Games will survive at least until November 13 plebiscite after City Councillors rejected a motion Wednesday to cancel plans and dissolve the bid corporation.  The vote to approve the end of the bid lost 8-7.

Take the money and invest it in sports. The politicians seem like they are on a high after Ba2018 lol.

And before you know it, the same thing happens as in Brazil: huge investments in the run-up to the Olympics, even big investments in winter sports despite them hosting the Summer Olympics, and once the Olympics are gone....investments drop to below zero :p

    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
