Well, I enjoyed the ceremony. I imagine reactions will be mixed again, but it worked for me.

It was ok, of course such ceremonies have to focus on disabled people problems (i guess so having no comparison). In that perspective i really enjoyed it. 

I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it

:JPN Satomi/Yamazaki on a mission, that was a great first set from them and the South Koreans weren’t even playing that badly :d

 

WR #4 compared to #10 which is a lot in pretty much any para sport but still…

By “everyone” who exactly do you mean? The Slovenian para volleyball federation? Because of course they’re going to be saying that :d

Everyone as in staff and players.

Oh. Well I’d hope so :d

 

It’s good that they have self belief in the team, but there was maybe less than a 5% chance of a Paralympic medal at best (and a likely 5th/6th match), I can’t remember the last time they beat one of the big 4 or Italy.

:JPN Kaneko finds the gap between the two Chinese players and ties the game up!

 

6-6 :CHN v. :JPN with just over 7 minutes to go!

 

Edit: Great, CBC decides to stop the stream right in the middle of the match, you’ve got to be joking :facepalm:

    • I won't write about injuries (Fede) and non-sporting matters (Colturi), but the fact is that Italy has its worst start to the season in alpine skiing in over 10 years... Just one victory, and podiums- if any, they're mostly 3 places. We're also not leading in any of the season standings, no in the women's or men's categories. This isn't how it should be in an Olympic year, where you're having your worst season in years.
    • Plaisier blew 3 match darts and Ratajski comes back to win!    
    • Yes, she was unlucky, but it could just as easily have happened during some training, like with Gut, etc. Brignone has been essentially injury-free throughout her long career, which is very rare in this sport. It's unfortunate that this happened after her best season ever and just 1 year before the Olympic Games in home, when she just missing of win the Olympic gold medal in her great career. With the gold in Cortina, she would have become a legend of Italian skiing, on par with Tomba. Now she's still the best Italian woman in history, but the miss of Olympic gold will likely haunt her for the rest of her life. 
    • It sad to see this season, as I remember, that Fede last year was winning everywhere, when she competed and finished and now we haven't even managed a single podium in the giant slalom, and it'll probably stay that way until the end of the season. Without Fede and Bassino, unfortunately, we're out of good cards in this event. For me Goggia should probably skip the giant slalom at all, becouse she has no chance of a podium and she risks further injuries. If even Goggia finish 8th or 10th? What difference does it make? If she couldn't get a podium finish today with so many DNFs at the top skiers, she probably never do. Della Mea is OK this year, but let's be honest, she's not World Cup podium material. Overall, it's a sad picture, and we have a 0% chance of anything in Cortina unless a miracle happens in Brignone return.   We have two chances for Goggia in DH and SG + maybe a dark horse in Pirovano/Curtoni in SG. That's all. In technical events, we have a 0% chance for medal and that's sad. Our federation also lost Colturi in this situation... In any normal country, the head of such a federation should be dismissed for disciplinary reasons and this case should be investigated by the minister, or even the prime minister, but not in Italy...
    • Mikaela Shiffrin  off the podium today (Edit: Oops...I thought this was slalom, not Giant Slalom.).  Nina Astner  entered the 2nd run in 30th place, but had the best second run, jumping up 18 places to 12th.
    • Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel with a 5th place PB in Semmering GS! 
    • Today RDC will defeat Senegal  and Tunisia 0-0 Nigeria
