Have a feeling the two Chinese meets are going to struggle to attract household names.

Not sure how sad that is, considering how dumb these rankings are :p 

No no, there is one of the most important ways to qualify in the OG . Not all athletes can make the entry standart

The thing is it makes it be more about having a good enough manager to get you in big meets, instead of simply being good. Not sure about the exact numbers, but for example a high jumper could get more for a 2.24m in a big meet than a 2.31m in a small meet, that's just weird.

I think, thai it's true. Competition score is the one of the most stupid things in athletics. But can we do anything else?

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
