I never said you shouldn’t watch NASCAR. 

It's really not that far away from exactly what you said :lol:

@heywoodu You are missing nothing by not watching American Football, Baseball, or NASCAR. You actually get brain loss from watching those.

 

Unless this means you wish for me to get brain loss, but that'd be sad and I'm inclined to go with the 'he probably doesn't actually wish brain loss on other people here' angle :p

Kind of like when I talk about Dutch sports huh? Don’t be hypocritical. 

Quotes please, because I have no idea where I more or less suggested you shouldn't watch stuff after you asked where you can watch this or that :)

I find WEC to be the most exciting series. The only motorsports I watch anymore are WEC, IMSA, and the famous races (Monaco, Indy, etc.)

 

A busy motorsports weekend for me consists of this, mostly, for what it's worth:

 

- NASCAR (Cup Series only)

- IndyCar

- Indy Lights

- Formula One (plus qualifying)

- Formula 2

- Formula 3

- Porsche Supercup

- Formula E

- MotoGP

- Moto2

- Moto3

- MotoE

- Red Bull Rookies Cup

- World Superbikes

- World Supersport

- World Supersport 300

- Australian Supercars

- DTM

- British Superbikes and the entire side program (although using the Eurosport Player +30 seconds button quite a lot there)

- CEV Repsol junior world championships

- ADAC Formula 4

- British Formula 3

 

Probably forgot something somewhere :p

@heywoodu So look, I’ve said some rude things in this post and in posts. I also realize what I posted right before this is counterintuitive to this post.

 

I’d like to offer out and olive branch and apologize. I’m not good at solving conflict, and I often start drama. I should have though about the post more before I made it. I’m sorry. I try to be a positive member on this forum and build other users up. This afternoon I failed at that. That is my fault, and again, I’m sorry. 

 

:beer: Cheers to being a great user.

 

If you were older and I drank beer, I'd offer you a beer :beer:

I must admit it's not like I watched every episode ever, but this was definitely one of my favourite ones :d 

 

Definitely the best one after the teenagers cars challenge episode with Clarkson and his anarchistic flag trying to drive as quietly as they could back to their 'parents' house and "accidentally" pushed his car into a shed , man I was laughing so much watching this one. My top episode of the whole show :lol:

 

but that one in Alabama is a real gold too. Hillary for president lol :lol:

If you’re talking about the Ju-Jitsu in the World and Asian Games, it’s not the same as Brazilian Ju-Jutsu

 

maybe there are minor differences but this is more or less the same.

 

you should know there are 3 different styles in Ju-jitsu. Duo (something like Kata), fighting and Ne-waza. we have all 3 of them at the World Games. but the ne-waza style (the only style we had at the Asian Games, because that was the only style UAE wanted) is more or less the same as Brazilian ju-jitsu.

    • Russia was never a super power in women's wrestling, they are just another decent team.   why ? that's simple. most of top Russian freestyle wrestlers are from Dagestan. probably 7-8 from the current team in Albania. and I assume in that region women are not encouraged to take this sport. if you remove Dagestan from Russia, their men's freestyle team will do more or less the same.   I'm not familiar with the Russian culture in general but I assume even nation-wide (and not only Dagestan) this is considered the men's sport.    of course in the World Championship those 3 teams you mentioned can go toe to toe with Russia or even do better. from this Russian team I only see Sadulaev to win the gold at worlds. (+ Sidakov if he returns and maybe Uguev depending on Japan's squad )   still the depth of Russian freestyle is unmatched. they can send their #5 guy and be still competitive for a top 6 finish, can't say the same about any other team.
    • In the women's, however, Russia took a strong beating from Ukraine, but surely there wasn't a all top-tier Russian girls here? Judo, in my opinion, is developing better and more countries are at the leading countries, than wrestling. Situation is slightly better in the world than in Europe, because we do have the USA, Japan and Iran. Unfortunately in Europe, this sport is a joke and is becoming a second table tennis, where people from other countries are naturalized and win medals for others, even though they have nothing in common with them.
    • You are rigth, i dont discuss that, Panama is "Colombia junior", and they have only one year for organize this event, a particular edition without doubt.
    • Turienzo is developing! She's still away from the level of Nolot, Moroz and Kampman but I expect a good performance at the WCh. Her peak years are still to come (not even 20 yet).
    • in the first night of freestyle finals, Russia won 4 out of 5 golds. they have 2 in the final tomorrow, I think they can reach their pre-tournament goal of winning 6 golds.   but interestingly all 20 medalists of tonight were either from Ex-Soviet countries or Russian mercenaries representing somewhere else   I think it's fair to say men's freestyle wrestling is dead and buried in Europe unfortunately. (I mean the old Europe excluding Ex-Soviets) hopefully the new UWW policy pushes some of these countries to restart their own program instead of just buying mercenaries but that will take time.
    • It was rather a little joke on my part - she never competed on a bike, like Sablikova, but rather combined skating with roller skating. I very like her character- she is very similar to Longo Borghini and unfortunately not every our women`s cyclist has something like that.
    • With the strength of the Netherlands and their good strategy you can be confident about the good future, which can`t be said about Italy, where everything is and has always been a great unknown and improvisation
    • Okay, mental strength and ambition are importatn thing, but you still need a lot of money for preparation and training, and working in Ukraine for the last 4 years has been very risky. Also, there is certainly more money going into to higher the army than, say: 10 or 15 years ago- sport is simply not a priority there anymore, like in the USSR years, or around 2000 - at least I think so.
