Here’s the five designs the Bermuda Olympic Committee is considering for their new logo (which is a shame since I love their current one :(

If I had to choose, I’d go with 1 (blue) or 3 (red)

Ugh, looks like it’s time to get rejected by Inside The Games again. They have another junior reporter opening (I don’t think they actually filled the position after the last round of applications), and I’ll apply once again. It’s rough applying for all these positions. I know I have what it takes, but I’m shutout because of my lack of a proper degree and age. I’m sure who ever they hire will be a great addition, but it sucks knowing that the job you feel highly qualified for shows absolutely no interest you :(

 

I love what I do for Totallympics Media, but it’s impossible to be anywhere near successful when I’m the only web journalist left, and when I have to do all the heavy lifting week after week. It’s times like this where I’m really happy for the support we receive, and for @Vojthas as my right-hand man (and fellow Co-Editor)

That's more a less summary of my last two-three years on that field.

Yeah, I love communications, but man, this field of study is depressing on the job market.

Whelp, my dad has a slightly high temperature. Time to kick him out my damn house, and put his ass in quarantine.

Damn. Looks like all Olympic Twiiter pages (and plenty others) have been hacked :yikes:

It’s either been fixed now, or I don’t see the problem.

    • Franchi had a similarly impressive performance at the 2023 World Championships on the same distance but later she completly missing. I hope that with Gismondi will be different, especially since she was already a great talent in her junior years. The problem in Italy is that for the past 15 years, aside from Pellegrino, there has been a miss of stability in other athletes: there are bursts of excellent form, but later they disappear. I also worry that funding for cross-country skiing will be cut after the Cortina Olympics.
