Japan once again invited, the fourth time in four tournament this season ... I don't see no invitational side there :) 

By the beginning of the new Challenger Series in 3 weeks they'll have had far more elite experience than the other teams, very fair ...

I know the Olympics are approaching but I don't see why it should ever grant privileges :wall:

 

While I'm okay with them giving non-core teams an opportunity to practice before the Olympics, it is a bit unfair that Japan is getting everything so far, especially when you have South Korea also competing.

 

Should have been 2-3 legs each for Japan and South Korea and the rest for other nations.

I was worried for a bit going here.  But I lived in Israel when busses were blowing up.  So I never stop my life for fear.   

 

My hotel is near lax.  In redondo beach.   

 

Gotta admit.  It's so damn weird.  I have been going here for 2 years for chargers games.  Now suddenly people are nice.   Parking is not 100$   everyone having a good time

Both hong kong and singapore sevens were postponed and will be made up in October.   Means that after canada next week there is 2 months without sevens, the sevens series will end after the Olympics and a new season will start a month after the end of this one

    • Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health. 
    • Marian Kasprzyk (boxing) - 1964 Olympic Champion & 1960 bronze medallist passed away at the age of 86.
    • It was removed the next day.
    • Someone made this Statue Trump---Epstein     mysterious bronze statue called “Best Friends Forever” has popped up on the east end of the National Mall in Washington, DC,    https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/us/politics/trump-epstein-statue-dc-national-mall.html    
    • Off to Milan for the 145th session of the International Olympic Committee. Although the agenda has not been published yet, there shouldn’t be any major items over these two days, apart from the election of a member of the IOC Executive Board. This will be the eighth time the session is held in Italy, the last one being during the Turin 2006 Olympic Games.
    • another wave of mega rain is coming in north Africa 
    • What is happening in Canada , people leave it  They say life is very expensive , you cant find an appartement , the salary is miserable    is it the multi tax of Trump? 
    • Weightlifting We now have six events per gender with a total of 10 athletes per event.   The Olympic Qualification Rankings will be based on the sum of the total results of five events (three from period 1 and two from period 2). The top 8 will qualify.   The 9th spot will also be based on the OQR, but it will go to the highest ranked athlete from an unrepresented continent.   The 10th spot will be split between the host and universality (3 each per gender). Should the United States qualify normally then their host quota will be reduced, first going to an athlete from an unrepresented continent then to the overall highest ranked athlete.   Additionally, a "Best Lifter" will be awarded which would give the nation the chance to qualify 4 athletes rather than the max of 3.
