Well, Peter Sagan's wish is their command it seems.

 

well, Sagan has nothing with yesterdays decision of the cycling federation to select Patrik Tybor over Haring. apparently both knew the rules, that the results of tour de Slovakia will be the decising clue, who of them both will finish higher in the GC will go to Rio, and unfortunately for Haring it was Tybor.

 

also about Sagan competing in MTB, well, as it was said many times, this was just a choice for the best result from SVK view, anyone can deny that Sagan is just a true jewel of our sport, when we didn´t won 2 quotas and Sagan didn´t received a wild card, our federation had to make a decision for the best possible favor of Slovakia. that´s all. 

 

ofc all the case is a bit unfortunate. but we must see it also from other perspective. Sagan did nothing wrong, he qualified Slovakian cycling to Rio, still must repeat the trouble with the motoride crashing him in Vuelta in this famous stage, with these points SVK would have 4 riders and we haven´t about what to talk today. Sagan would compete in road race with 3 team mates and one of the 2 MTB guys would compete in cross-country. but unfortuanately we are not living in a perfect world

    • In my opinion, the maximum period in power should be 8 years. Next to, it's already too long, especially since Hungary's economy is much weaker than earlier. Just as Italy has too many changes of government, Orbán's 16 years in power is definitely too long for me. Perhaps only Erdogan and Putin have ruled in Europe longer, but those are semi-dictatorships.    In the USA, just about two weeks before the election, bookmakers were betting heavily on Trump, from what I remember good. They were more wrong in 2016 with Trump and Clinton – then, Clinton was expected to win clearly until the very end.
    • Fraud hopefully not, it's true that everyone says it will be like 50-50% as far as the winner is concerned. Hopefully the moron (ov) loses but honestly don't know what will happen.  My main concern is that it was said about the 2024 US election that it will be very close and then what happened... (I mean hopefully these opinion polls are more reliable than the American ones)
    • According to our bookmakers, Orban could lose after so long time, but I've read that there may be electoral fraud. What do you think?
    • Good to know there will be a women's hockey wch in Budapest this year. Admittedly I was out of the loop for many sports recently (only followed the winter sports world cup circuit prior to the Olympics and not everything from there even) According to Wikipedia the first day of the competition will be Election Day (12 April) Hopefully this will not be a bad omen for any of the teams involved.... 
    • This year, Italy will play against Slovakia in the women's hockey World Championships in Budapest in April. Who do you think will be the favorite?
    • Don´t want to speak about Slovak politics amigo. They all were, are and will be greedy, uneducated and corrupted bastards. Point.   Back to sport. We suck as hell, but we know it, However, that´s not a reason to not enjoy the Olympics, it is a once in a 4 years time holiday of sport 
    • You are easily in NBC´s medal Tally Top 10 mate. No worries 
    • In that time in Poland was ruled by a some center-right government with the support of liberals but a president was a post-communist. It seems to me that in Poland, the president has much more power than in Italy or Slovakia. Btw., during the Yanukovych era, Ukraine also wanted to organize the Winter Olympics in Lviv in 2022
