Azerbaijan and Armenia are once again on the brink of war over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. 16 soldiers have been killed after three days of fighting: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-53402476

 

Add that to the list of ever growing international conflicts this year, though this one has been somewhat continuous since the end of the Soviet Union.

But the good news is that the local Covid outbreak is over, then.

Surprised Mexico is number 1 for Russian people.

Man, between the World Cup Schedule announcement, Dakar 2022 (2026) announcement, and the World Games 2022 announcement; it’s been a busy morning. All on a random Wednesday as well.

More importantly, what about the Rose Bowl Game?

There’s a good chance the entire season will be postponed. Some leagues have already announced no fall sports will take place. There’s the possibility of a spring season, but it’s a rough outlook for college football this year.

    • I don't know if anybody but me cares about this, but this article about Santa Monica ( a snotty beach community near LA) really peeved.     https://www.smdp.com/as-los-angeles-looks-to-2028-santa-monica-positions-itself-as-a-global-stage-for-sport-storytelling-and-community-impact/   It's all about how Santa Monica is going to be such a leading force for the games:   “Santa Monica is not just showing up for 2028,” James said. “We are shaping the experience. From our coastline to our infrastructure, we offer a globally recognized stage with the ability to deliver authentic, well-executed experiences that benefit both visitors and our local community. Our focus is translating global interest into meaningful, well-managed experiences that means thinking not just about visibility, but about legacy.”   Well, Santa Monica can just fuck all the way off.  Besides the vaporous word salad in the quote, they were asked to host the Beach Volleyball tournament, but refused, saying (literally) that they should just free ride on all the other places that are hosting events and just reap the rewards of the increased tourism.  
    • there were lots of talks about it, AWF once again pushed for this idea but looks like OCA rejected it once and for all. which is good.    only total medals will be awarded in this sport as it should be    https://oca.asia/media/attachments/memberships_subcommittee/5/Decisions_109_EB_Meeting.pdf
