World cup rankings, only world cup rankings.

People tend to forget that not only favorites win medals.

The prediction for the US looks really weird, but Norway should indeed win the medal table, they will win tons of golds in biatlon, cross-country, snowboard, freestyle skiing and maybe even alpine skiing, nordic combined or ski jumping.

20 golds would be historic, but who knows?

Here are some other predictions:

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Norway team went to the Olympic Games-2018, taking with them over 6,000 doses of anti-asthmatic drugs, NRK says. In terms of the amount of medicines imported into Korea of this type, Norwegians are ahead of Finland, Sweden and Germany, and the first two they outperform in dozens of times.

The publication claims that the Norwegian delegation took 1800 doses of Symbicort, 1200 atrovent, Alvesko and Airomir (another name is salbutamol), and 360 - Ventolin.

 

Bjoergen can be swallowed up from so many..All the same, the dirty Russians are to blame

It's all. IOC didnt agree to expedited consideration of the appeal in the CAS of Yuskov and Kulizhnikov. They will be considered after the Games. The reason for not allowing Yuskov to the Games - 11 years ago he was caught on marijuana. The main favorite for gold IOC frankly killed. This will remain a stain forever. Her who was behind this decision will burn forever in hell

Though I do agree that it's a lot (I've even seen Norwegians feeling that it's suspicious), they don't plan on using it all. It's to be sure, where the Swedes are planning to buy extra medication in Korea if needed. It would however be interesting to hear how much they have left after the Olympics.

The same kind of virus that wreaked havoc on the athletics world champs last year.. 

 

It's getting closer. Stina Nilsson's coach is down! :cry:

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
