That is real ROFL )))))

 

Russia has a "Friendship cup" in Perm these days.

 

They announced 4 team: 3 national teams - russia, Venezuela, Colombia and "Parma" (local basketball club).

Propaganda described it as an international tournament to show that russian sport is not totally blocked.

Kirilenko was happy to see national teeams from South America.

 

And...

 

"Parma" won the first quarter against Colombia  - 41:2

Total score - 155:53.

 

And... Colombian basketball federation stated that they did not send national team there )))

Furthermore - they even  did not receive invitation ))))

 

P.S. It looks like none of that players played for Colombia ever ))

    • By finishing in top 3 Anderson Peters   Neeraj Chopra  & Julian Webber  have all qualified for the Diamond League Finals.  Jakub Vadlejch  had already qualified .    The top 4 Men’s Javelin throwers have all made it to the DL finals. 
    • I think after today's last throw he thought that he had done it. It is like there is an invisible force on the 90 m line which always pulls his Javelin before the mark 
    • Thanks, I must’ve missed it. Oops. 
    • Indian race walker Bhawna Jat handed 16-month ban for ‘whereabouts failure’ by NADA panel.  Bhawna, who was provisonally suspended last year, will see her ban end in December this year.
    • 89.49m for  Chopra in the men’s javelin thro in the 6th round! Another mark over 89m, but still can’t break that elusive 90m barrier.     Peters continues his strong stretch of form with 90.61m in the 6th and final round to take the win  (probably one of the most intriguing men’s field events at the moment IMO)
    • That's about the 132th time Chopra gets to around 89.50m but under 90.00m.
