Eh Bibic will miss this :( Pity really. He was our main hope for medal on 1500 and 5000.  Now only Gardasevic and maybe Micevic can win medal.

They should let that 15 (?) year old javelin thrower girl compete :smash:

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Great to see your enthusiasm for the performance of a foreign athlete! :yes

Röhler and Vetter make 90 m almost seem normal ... at this point it would be really disappointing if they wouldnt finish 1-2 in London.

German javelin throwers have never been that strong, amazing progression, sadly we are in a very bad spot in pretty much all other throwing events.

Also 64.21 for Hussong in womens javelin throw today and 21.53 for Storl yesterday, overall i am pretty happy with the current state of german athletics, despite the "absence" of Schwanitz/C.Harting and the recent retirement of world class athletes like Heidler, Obergföll or Stahl.

Obviously at the world championships it's always possible a non-German wins, but man, if they have one big chance for a gold medal...it's definitely right there :d (stating the obvious, I know :p )

    • I remember that in 2017 i do a medal table excluding all the athletes from the big four ( ) and Mongolia won (14 gold, 2nd Taipei with 7). I'm curious to see if this will change.
    • 3 NOCs won their first medal: (in an Olympic event!), and    
    • I have been told these are the 34 NOC's who attended the Chefs de mission meeting recently (doesn't mean these are the final 34 scheduled to compete)    (did not compete in 2017)   (did not compete in 2017)     (debut, curious to see what they will compete in) (debut)         (have only competed in hockey before, but will be in a new sport this time) (debut)        11 NOC's not present:     (the most surprising as they have an active skier atm)          
    • The CANCER  is attacking Lebanon     
    • Copa Libertadores, Copa Sul-americana ans Brazilian footbal league - Football   Nascar Cup playoffs   Thats all I think.
    • Really relaxed week (at least for me), off the top of my head I’ll only be watching the Bills-Jaguars game in NFL, WTT China Smash, Athlos in athletics, the GSOC Hearing Life Tour Challenge and maybe some Canucks pre-season games.    No ATP/WTA tennis. 
    • Wait they are hosting a Skater XL event as their esport thingy? looooooooooool, that's hillarious.
    • After 3 months UEFA have finally acknowledged, that there was a huge mistake in the Germany - Spain match and the Cucurella handball should have been a penalty  Well la di da, that was evident for everyone and their blind dog, except for one fraud named Anthony Taylor and his helpers. Give that man more awards.
