Well shit, another major earthquake hit basically the same area 15 minutes ago :yikes: 

 

Yes, another. Not just an aftershock, which is usually weaker, but one of basically the same strength....7.8 was the first one, 7.7 is the one of a few minutes ago. That is very, very bad.

No no no no no don't go posting super moron Frank Hoogerbeets :lol: 

 

He comes up with hundreds of predictions for terrible earthquakes, based on planets X and Y being in some angle with the sun or some pseudoscience bullshit like that, and now that he finally 'hit' one, he is just basking in the dopamine rush that the likes and retweets are giving him today...

 

Several times a year he comes with some nonsense prediction for a civilization-ending super earthquake and nonsense like that.

 

As the old saying goes: even a broken clock is correct twice a day.

I didn't know he is one of that kind...I thought he was a somehow reasonable scientist...:mumble:

 

it looks I was wrong big time, so...he's just a catastrophist looking for worldwide attention...:facepalm:

It works for him though, I guess he went hard on the dopamine from his 124 thousand likes, 53 thousand retweets and 35 million views of his tweet :p

For the last few days I have seen some info (some posts) from totallympics.com almost copied/pasted in Polish sport press & websites.

 

Well, maybe I'm a lunatic, but I believe that my effort in promoting this forum among Polish journalists, coaches, official and athletes can bear fruit...

 

And among some lawyers who specialize in sports law :-)))))

@Vojthas you share some interesting info on your twitter account, thanks!

 

Szymon Ziółkowski's recent words are particularly interesting.

Sports law?

 

Yes, exactly. And believe me, you can make a lot of money here if you know sports law. As an attorney-at-law or sth similar. Endorsement deals, doping cases, CAS, sport meetings organization, sports events transmitions in TV or internet etc., etc...

 

Which things are translated?

 

Generally speking, BLRUS in Paris or not, boycott or not, doping issues and match-fixing are the hot topics here now. Some people use this forum to prepare their texts, some of them even in the most popular Polish websites and press, and i think this is good.

 

Hopefully one day they will mention totallympics.com as their source as well...

To be fair, BLR/RUS in Paris is one of the main overall topics in sports at the moment... :p

    • Disappointing end of the race, wanted to see history this year 
    • A lot of sports have been ruined with rule changes, modern pentathlon has actually better with these rules I think. I would never watch something span over 2 days. Short and quick finals is what most audience want.   Obviously can be optimised further, but this is definitely an excellent job and that's how a sport should be.
    • World Cup 1     Cairo, April 7-12       Women: Gold: Blanka Guzi - 1,488 pts (New World Record) Silver: Anastasiya Malashenoka  Bronze: Viyaleta Hureyeva    Men: Gold: Moutaz Mohamed  - 1,608 pts (New World Record) Silver: Mathis Rochat  Bronze: Mihaly Koleszar 
    • Felt the athletes didn't give it their all in swimming, it was slow
    • China was not at the Olympics. You played Japan.   Taking any conculsions after 1 match is too early and premature. Norway is definitely by any mean not a punching bag, They are a team relegated from the Top division. Nobody is going to blown them. In the opposite China yes, they were piss poor today, totally harmless, this is not China from the pre and Beijing era, any naturalized player is not in the team anymore, only local girls who had issues even with normal skating and puck control, Was quite embarassing to watch this, but kudos to China they decided to go this harder way and reform their team with local players.   Italy is still the number one favorite for promotion, 3 points against Norway are the first and very important step. Your main games will still be Hungary and France as scripted.
    • Italy today beat Norway only 2-1 (and also was a draw in the all shots stats: 28- 26). It doesn't look good for us– our form has probably arrived in February, not now. In my opinion, Slovakia will be the favorite tomorrow – they won 7-0 against China today – and they'll probably were a peak of the form. Personally, I wasn't expecting Italy to advance and I think I was right – it's good that the minimum goal – no relegation – is almost certain. Certainly, today wasn't the same form as in February at the Olympics in the matches against France and China.
    • looking at the video and knowing Australia, I think the wind reading was wrong, it was surely a lot more windy than +1.7, but we all know that sometimes these things happen (you're so young, I don't know what you know about the 1988 Olympic Trials in Indianapolis and Florence Griffith Joyner records -still standing )
    • I call bullshit on the performances from this race    20.01 to 19.67 would be one thing, we all know how good Gout Gout has been hyped up to be, even though it feels like ridiculously impossible with how steep of an improvement it is… but almost everyone from the race has had ridiculous PB’s, I mean Murphy who’s a 20.41 guy at best is now 19.88. McHugh broke 21 seconds for the first time a month ago, and now he’s going 20.23.   Either an extremely fast track, wrong timing, favourable headwind, not sure what it is. 
    • This also kind of showed, like last year, the biggest flaw of Pogacar: technique and bike control. The way he was wrestling himself through curve after curve where natural talents like Van Aert and Van der Poel (cyclocross greats, no coincidence) were flying through.
