Which Sports Events are you Currently Watching?


Recommended Posts

Time for my usual calendar rant... It appears the holy week in February is 12-18th, when we have the Swimming Worlds, the Biathlon Worlds, the Weightlifting Euro and the Wrestling Euro. And to be more "fun" all of their evening sessions are someway colliding in the 18:00-20:30 (BG) timeframe or so.

 

It can't be the week prior, or the week after, no, everything has to be in this exact week. UWW and EWF are doing this a second year in-a-row, as if they are in cahoots.

Here’s my day by day schedule for this week:

 

Again these times could be a bit off. Great prep for Paris where I’ll be switching between approximately 15 streams all at once  :p

 

I don’t know how I do it to be honest. I’m normally tired when I wake up (not really a good thing), as my sports schedule is quite packed, but I’d rather get less sleep than miss out on some of my favourite events live (not recommending it though)

1:00- 2:25 AM: Doha 2024 World Aquatic Championships- Women’s Waterpolo Group Stage - Canada v. Italy

3:00-4:45: Doha 2024 World Aquatic Championships- Artistic Swimming - Duet Free Finals

Concacaf Women's Gold Cup tonight. Watched Paraguay upset Costa Rica with a pace change in 2nd half and right now crowed supported El Salvador tries to get something out of their match against Canada in Group C fixture in Houston .

 

PS: Canada only needed a few minutes while I post this, to increase its advantage to 3-0 so I guess no more a contest this match.

Rest of the time needed for 😴 so I pretty much missed anything else.

I haven't had much time at home the past few weekends, but this weekend was a great weekend for some sport viewing: Strade Bianche, World Championship Indoor Athletics  and PSV-Feyenoord!

 

Looking forward to (highlights from) the first Beach Pro Tour tournament next week, and mostly the week after: Borussia Dortmund - PSV, World Championship Shorttrack, Milan - San Remo and handball champions league (highlights).

this week my picks have been Athletics (Indoor Worlds), Shooting (10m European Champs), Fencing (M+W Sabre World Cup tournaments), Judo (Tashkent Grand Slam) and some Wintersports (Biathlon and Alpine Skiing above all)

 

unfortunately I didn't save enough time to follow as much Hockey as usual (and as I would have liked) :cry:

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
