Not sure this has been addressed before but I just found out Honduras has changed their flag to a turquoise shade of blue in January 2022, following the inauguration of Xiomara Castro.

:AFG has a new flag (or are reusing their old flag). However, some sport federations are still using the old one (actually I'm not sure if any of them are using the current flag).

nobody uses the Taliban flag, except themselves. Taliban government is not recognized by anybody yet. so the old flag is still the official one for international federations.

 

as far as I know the only sport Taliban cares about is Cricket and they let the Cricket NT played the World Cup couple months ago under the old flag. at least for now they are not insisting on using their own flag but since they are starting to do their normal Taliban things, I think that will happen eventually.

"Germany........? Oh, Spain. Well they're right next to each other. Kind of."

 

:rolleyes: 

 

Videos of people filming themselves doing some quiz or having some reactions always make me feel like "Sure, you didn't practice this and all your 'reactions' at all" :p 

 

On the bright side: national anthem quiz, I'm always in for that :cheer: 

 

I went wrong at Turkey..

    • We never beat Canada in the WJC so yeah that would be a major upset... we were mega close in that goddamned quarterfinal when Bedard "Bellinghamed" us in the last overtime minute. I doubt we will be any closer of that in the next decade.   won in all its history only 3 matches in world juniors preliminary Round and never over a top tier nation so this win over Canada in CAN is certainly one of the biggest upsets of this sport comparable to - QF in Salt Lake or - Katowice madness or Squaw Valley MOI
    • But if we would have done it, no one would call it a surprise :(

    • The Italian team bought a wax- bus from Sweden before the season and acquired head of their serviceman, so maybe that's the reason? The investment hasn`t been successful so far, because there is still a void beyond Pellegrino and these young skiers aren`t mentally ready for a tough fight.   Once there was a skier from Poland - Justyna Kowalczyk, who fought with the whole coalition of Norwegians at that time: Bjoergen, Johaug etc. Thanks to her strong psyche she was able to win difficult finishes with Bjoergen. Diggins is doing the same now - she gives 120%. This is the only way you can win with Norwegians. Apart from Pellegrino I don't see anyone in our team who has the ambition and the will to fight.
    • Diggins and Pellegrino have never had great physical conditions but their mental have always been on point. The entire American team is brave and ambitious. On the other hand the Italian team is physically weak and has no ambition. There is no visible will to fight and progress is born in the head- that`s says once Filippo Ganna.
