Winter sport, of course :p

Yeah even the International Deaf Sports Committee wasn’t sure about that. That’s why they downgraded it to a demonstration sport. To be fair, Chess can be played anytime of the year.

And I think that's how their pad cover looks like - I use it for league only, normally I have another one for trainings and minor bonspiels.

Yes, in fact some kind of sign language is used by every team - to show which stone you should hit, where your stone should stop, with how big force you should throw... However, they need to use it al

It looks there will be livestreaming!!! They tried to livestream the first Curling draw, but ran into some technical issues, hopefully they’re able to figure it out within the next hour, so we can watch a match or two.

Not the best livestream, but it’s better than nothing. They’re still working out some broadcast issues.

Okay update on the streaming situation courtesy of the organizing committee. Tomorrow the broadcasts should be a full strength with graphics and what not. They also gave us an update on which sports will be shown live.

 

Sports Shown Live: Curling, Ice Hockey, Ceremonies

Sports Shown Delayed (probably meaning short/long length highlights): Alpine Skiing, Chess, Cross Country Skiing, and Snowboarding

Hey, I know the guys from :POL curling team - last month we beat them 8:5 in the league :) Keeping fingers crossed they'll do well at the Deaflympics, they're really good.

There one of the medal favorites after the first 3 draws. They beat Japan 8-5, and then beat the hosts (Italy) 12-3. They play China tomorrow evening. I don’t think that sheet will be the televised game though.

      big big news regarding Olympic bronze medalist and two time World Champion  Zurabi Datunashvili   https://ita.sport/news/the-ita-acknowledges-cas-add-decision-sanctioning-wrestler-zurabi-datunashvili-for-anti-doping-rule-violations/   to be honest everything was suspicious about this guy, his sudden improvement since 2021, his body, his sudden retirement in 2023 . its great to see him finally getting caught.   they will reallocate the medals later after the end of the process but his Olympic bronze will go to  Ivan Huklek, I think that will be the first ever wrestling medal for Croatia   his 2021 World title will go  Maskevich and the 2022 gold goes to  Bisultanov Bisultanov will benefit more than anybody else, he also gets a bronze from 2021 and  Kessidis will get a bronze from 2022.

      I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments.   Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.

      If this were Milan from 20 years ago, it would be a success but currently it`s just a European average team and on top of that it is not in top form. Milan's defense this season resembles Swiss cheese.

      Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.

      Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).
