They have to be economical with their letters these days.  It's all they have left.  

 

Note: I've been to Sri Lanka and I'm not trying to mock it.  It is absolutely beautiful, and the people are incredibly friendly.  I recommend it to anyone, at least when things calm down.  It sucks what they're going through, they deserve better.  

But it can’t be denied they spend a lot on toner cartridges.

Honestly, got into watching weightlifting in Tokyo and have enjoyed it here, too.  Great sport to watch.  Full of strategy and explosive athleticism.  Lots of fun!  

Let's hope we'll get to see it on the Olympic programme after Paris and with more than 10 events but that's too much to ask right now.

Perry :ENG and King :NZL into a fifth game for the bronze in squash.

 

A tale of two different matches really. Perry did well to rally back in games 3 and 4. All to play for in the decider.

It is a genuine all-continent, poor nations’ sport, unlike many.  Just need to sort out governance.

I feel like this is a warning like how wrestling was taken off the programme for a brief moment a few years back.  Faster Higher Stronger.  If breakdancing is in there and weightlifting is not, this old man will riot.

Damn, Feuillet :MRI and Petgrave :ENG went for the same throw in golden score, and Pergrave won out. :MRI was so close to a gold medal.

    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event 
    • In bed with the flu and few hours of sleep, but at least the insomnia will let me watch the first World Cup stage
    • The news then is that she has not yet been arrested? I suppose Camila when she returns to Italy will have a very unwelcome visit from the Guardia di Finanza.
