I guess @Olympian1010 talked about reliving  games . Well I'd prefer Beijing 2008 but I don't think there are enough replays for all. 

Reliving any other games is sorta difficult for me since I'm afraid i won't be interested to watch when I know the results .

 

The other option I decided was having a random multi sport " games " having 50-60 sports both summer and winter. I have already made a basic plan like sports should have no more than 4 golds or no more than 5hours of finals  for individual and 2 for team maybe I'll watch knockouts only. The events must be after 2016 Olympics till date . So it can be any WC or world championships or even continental event (spread evenly like 6, 12,18 sports so that all nations have equal share of continental medals)

I have so many replays to chose from, that I haven’t watched a single replay one week into my summer break :p

 

It’s too hard to chose, so I chose to not make a choice.

If we were to relive an Olympic Games I think it should be Rio 2016. All the finals replays are put out & it is the 4 year anniversary in August. 

 

I like your idea for the Wch games. I would just stick to Wch instead of continental events or world cups. You could do the latest Wch event for each sport & put it into a schedule. Honestly, this probably won’t happen, but it is fun to think about.

Yeah that's what... 

So I trimmed  down  the number of events and also important will be accessibility . In case you have time we both can divide some work and @Olympian1010 can do some too if he's willing .

Another great nostalgic discovery!  Petanque!  Pour nous autres rosbifs, it’s a sport you play on the beach when you were on holiday with your parents, but in France it’s second only to Le Tour itself.

 

 

 

Hey, it’s a World Games sport too. It has been played at the GSSE, Mediterranean Games, African Games, SEA Games as well. Pétanque is unique because of the best countries are the likes of Madagascar and Cambodia.

Like Darts it’s a sport which used to be played only by people with a cigarette glued to the corner of their mouths and a dink on the table beside them.

    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
