  • 4 weeks later...

We’re going into the Spring Dead Zone - those five or six weeks between one sports season ending & the next beginning. So what do we have from now till mid-May?

 

  • Last week of ski jumping & Ski Classics.
  • Would you believe the Norwegians have got another 30km/50km race today! 
  • Still the men’s & mixed doubles curling to come
  • Rugby League both hemispheres.
  • Can’t be bothered with baseball anymore so it’s NCAA softball for stick sports.
  • No rest for NCAA track & field, early season meets already.

 

And some things prudently saved.  
 

  • Only up to 16/12/2022 on Russian Biathlon
  • Whole of the Cross Country World Juniors & U-23s to go.

Yeah, forgot about cycling. :red:
 

Shooting….used to like it, but they’ve changed to formats again & I haven’t caught up.

 

Really have no interest at all in soccer anymore, it is all way too predictable in every country.

 

Judo & Fencing are Olympics only for me.

 

Would love to watch Modern Pentathlon if not for stupid PayTV now.

 

As I said about baseball before - bring the games back to 120 mins as they were as recently as the 1960s.

i don't understand how anyone can care about soccer,what the hell are you watching there,lol.I cannot believe  Pentathon is on paytv now,there needs to be a revolt to knock out the leadership there right now,Lithuania won the mixed relay last world cup and i can't even see it online,i have to hope to see it on tv in about a week,andthen i have to hope that it will actually show that,cause who knows.

    • Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina   Let's do this for a country that is not actually that good in winter sports as well as our Olympic Committee Declining lots of places. In Beijing we had 7 quotas and used 2      (also I am a very optimistic person in relation to sport in general and always hope for the best. )    Ski Sports   Alpine Skiing  (2) - Emilija Djurović and Aleksa Tomović Cross Country Skiing  (2) - Anja Ilić (the olympic committee cancelled her participation just before Bejing) and Andrija Tošić Ski Jumping  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Nordic Combined  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Freestyle Skiing  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Snowboarding  (1) - Matija Milenković  Biathlon  (2) - We had two juniors at the YOG 2024, maybe they can get better, I will be optimistic  (Lamija Salihagić and/or Hanna Jelena Braun) Ski Mountaineering  (0) - I don't think it will be existing      Skating Sports   Speed Skating  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Short Track Speed Skating  (1) - Out first EYOF winter medal in a long time came from Luka Jašić Figure Skating  (0) - Maybe we will have a good junior come      Sleigh Sports   Luge  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Skeleton  (1) - We had two juniors at the YOG 2024, maybe they can get better, I will be optimistic Bobsleigh  (0) - Not existent anymore      Team Sports   Curling  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Ice Hockey  (0) - Qualifier for women's team cancelled, and mens team eliminated       Total  VERY Optimistic Prediction  -  (9) Total Pessimistic Prediction  - (3)   Total Realistic Prediction  -  (3)
    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
