How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026? Road to Milano Cortina 2026

Cheering for our southern neighbors to win a medal (hockey & Fialkova being the realistic options :whistle: ).

Actually, TV coverage will be huge here, the main TV channel will broadcast lot of things live

The promotion done by CazeTV on Instagram is strong.

 

I hope they don't just focus on sports where there's a chance of a medal. I hope that Curling, Hockey, Skating, and the 50 variations of skiing also get a lot of attention.

Does Brazilian media even realize who Braathen in? Or just typical Campeonato Carioca/Paulista news in January? :p

For me, it's great to live in a country where there are no expectations, and if you win something, it's a celebration for a big event. On the other hand, as a fan in the USA, you don't really get any joy from those medals because you win 5 or 6 every day in the summer, and probably 2 or 3 in the winter. When I lived in Poland before 2000, winter was a similar situation: no one expected a medal and any place in the top eight was a major success. That changed after Małysz show up, but it was still just one person- an outstanding master, but only one.

Hah! I suppose Slovakia doesn't pay attention to speed skating much :p I live close enough to the southern border to get old Czechoslovakian TV off my ground antenna back in the day (Nova TV even in early 90s) and the Zakopane/Jasna OG bid is viable even if there is literally one road from Krakow-Balice airport to Zakopane hehe.

 

Forget A Je To! or Krtek, I even recall hazeni houbou in Hip Hap Hop :p

Certainly, any Brazilian who wins will receive a lot of media attention here in Brazil, even if it's in Alpine Skiing. It also helps that he's dating a well-known actress from the country's biggest television network.

 

Of course, it's difficult to reach the level of stars like Gabi Guimarães, Rebeca Andrade, Isaquias Queiroz, or Hugo Calderano. But I would say that for a tropical country, he's more popular than one might expect.

Well, you Italians are quite pessimistic, from what I see. 

 

At least you have the statistics on your side; the host country always does its best at home.

naaa...our friend goes beyond the concept of "pessimistic" :lol:

 

I really hope one day he can change his attitude and enjoy the sport a lot more than focusing on who's going to win and who's going to lose :pope::dunno:

Thanks and good luck to our northern neighbors as well 

 

You killed me with that Hip Hap Hop :lol:
