Very entertaining :CZE & :USA.  :CZE Doing very well in spite of labouring under the same handicap as Dutch Alpine skiers & Jamaican bobsleigh pilots.

 

Also, great late-night party atmosphere in the crowd.

BBC (especially) even bothering the Italian players this morning, trying to take away their joy in the win :facepalm: 

 

Do they simply not do their job, and just now, after years of regular international play, start forcing every single athlete to give their opinion (with a 'no comment' as the angry Italians rightfully said, undoubtedly followed by 'they support it!')?

Did you watch the match? I want to know if the crowd was booing him or not :p

As per media,

 

Steven van de Velde, the Dutch beach volleyball player who served time in prison for having sex with a 12-year-old girl, received a mixture of boos and applause when he was introduced before losing his opening match on Sunday at the Paris Olympics.

    • I really hope Nordic Combined doesn't get scrapped. Actually, I believe the Winter Olympics should keep growing with new sports and disciplines (3x3 Hockey, Ice Cross, Speed Skiing, Ice Climbing), otherwise they won't feel like a true celebration of sports like their summer counterpart.
    • In fact, well, no. Hockey is extremely physically demanding, I even think it is the most physically demanding winter sport of all. I mean keeping more than a minute on ice is just cardiac. The shifts are there for a reason.   25 players rosters are absolutely justified. You must have 4 lines to keep the stamina the whole game.   Hard to persuade people who never watched hockey though, I can understand your point, but sadly, the point is wrong
    • Stats are ok, but the time she losts on the range every time... My point was that she is more likely to make us losing the olympic relay than to make us winning it.  
    • I'll jump on the off-topic with an unpopular opinion - ice hockey isn't so stamina demanding to justify 25 people rosters. And it doesn't have big playing fields like football or rugby for example, where you'd require so many reserves. 15 field players + 3 goalies should be good. Or 18+3 at max. But 25 is too much imo and the constant substitutes are too much as well.
    • But her shooting surely never was horrendous, or even bad for her standards.
