ah cool, :) well you hardly can find something much more important in this world than SVK - CZE hockey match is :d

 

yeah divorce...well,  except hockey matches we still feel that we are like the same nation,:d  no. it´s hard to explain, but big majority of peoples there and here still regard us like two brothers, which few retarded politicians tried to convince that they can´t be together. the problem is that this bunch of corrupted bastards managed to split us without asking anyone if we agree, no referendum, nothing, just hey peoples give us few minutes of your attention! since next year we will be 2 independant countries. yipee !  ....

 

That is insane. It should have been put to vote. It was too big a decision.

Where did you get this, if I may ask? :p 

 

I might use it on a Dutch website to update an article about the Australians moving out of the Village because of unliveable conditions :)

Australian athletes arrived at the Olympic Village and have moved back out to hotels, because conditions are "unliveable"...toilets barely flush, showers flood the rooms and so on. Wonderful start.. 

 

Just a little correction... the australians athletes haven't arrived yet, they will start to arrive this week. As far as I'm concerned, there are problems in the Australian and New Zealand buildings, and the Rio committee will try to solve them as soon as possible.

Oh, I thought the toilet was really right next to the bed, like in the place of the nightstand. That would have been interesting :d

    • Yuna Aoki was fantastic and defeats both Chiba and Nakai at 4 Continents. 
    • Apparently now Uhlaender is appealing to the IOC to add another spot and give it to her    Good grief, it's a US selection issue ultimately, they qualified two, how they award them is up to them... but she doesn't like their answer, and knows she has no legal standing to go thru those channels or CAS, so goes right to the IOC looking for special treatment. 
    • ICE Police killed him , he was a nurse , 37 yo ... fking USA of trump     
    • @hckošice Do you agree with me to some extent, or am I hopelessly dreaming? 
    • Interesting forecasts, I like 'em! I think the US wins the most medals, but Norway tops the standings (most golds)... have Germany neck-and-neck with Norway for medals, but fewer gold.    Then have Canada and Italy fighting it out for 4th in 5th   Then have Sweden, Austrian, Japan, Netherlands and France rounding out the top ten, with them all within a medal or two of each other. Of course reality will differ significantly 
    • A huge day for the very young Italian Bertini: despite a very tough draw, he beats Szilagy in the round of 16 and Gu in the quarterfinals! First career podium for him! 
    • Time for more personal and detailed predictions:    will have it hard this time.   I'm trying to stay realistic about our chances. We're not going there as favorites in most events, and deep down I know it would be a big surprise if we suddenly overperformed or even dominated. Still, sports have a beautiful way of ignoring expectations.   We're never predicted to do amazingly well at either edition of the Olympics, so I’m desperately hoping for moments that will stay with everyone in the country for years, whether it's a final that keeps people glued to their screens or a performance that will make us proud. Just one medal could mean so much. It would bring real emotions and something to cheer for to a country that isn’t going through its best period right now. And on the rare occasion of a hockey miracle, celebrations in the streets wouldn't be an oddity.   It all comes down to four sports, the rest are out of reach:   Alpine Skiing is a big mystery, and it will all come down to Petra, whether she'll compete and eventually shock everyone with a heroic result. That's the best-case scenario. Biathlon can be the dark horse, you never know how things turn around. The women's relay is probably our biggest chance, but all four of them need to deliver great performances. As for Ice Hockey, our national sport, I'll always believe in another fairytale. I'll always believe we'll pull off a miracle. Since I wasn't alive yet when we won gold at the World Championships, I can only resort to watching old videos and imagine how amazing it must have been to watch as your country is the champion of the world in something. Best on the planet. Even the silver years later was amazing, but I was too young to actually remember it, so it's time for another hockey euphoria in the country. Ski Mountaineering is a bit overlooked in the media right now, but I believe we have a huge chance of winning a medal in one of the events. Our athletes aren't minnows.   We're a small country, still relatively young. There's not much we're known for in the world, but sports are a perfect way to build a national identity, to stop people from thinking you're still part of a state that ceased to exist decades ago. Doing well in sports is one of the few things these lesser-known countries can show off, not just the ones in Europe.   I'm desperately hoping for a medal, and we all want those two weeks of the Olympics to be amazing and full of unforgettable moments.
