I am! I live in Seattle so going to LA is sort of a must for me.

Well we have like 3 years to start planning but let's talk once tickets are released.  But I live nearby the valley sports park where they will have the urban stuff and archery

Ok guys who is coming to L.A? I can host a few people in my house   

 

 


would love to but i need to think about it, mostly because:

  • way more expensive - not even the flights but everything, from accommodation to tickets, after all it's USA so i expect to be way pricier than Paris
  • difficulty to move around - what i did loved and enjoyed on Paris was the ability to go everywhere quickly and easy, going through the center while passing multiple venues or just going from A to B by metro/rer with no problems. My experience in LA and public transport was not that good (2016 so things might have changed) so i expect it will be super car-oriented olympics, which sucks.
  • organization - french did an outstanding job organising everything, help was provided almost literally everywhere in the city and entrance in the venues were incredible smooth. americans... i dont know, somehow i feel i'm gonna be disappointed based on how copa america was organised for example.

I really wouldn't put this latest Copa America on the US, that was directly organized by CONMEBOL with minimal involvment from any American organization.

    • There are currently no grounds to consider Ghiotto as a favourite for the 5000. He has never won any important 5000 event while dominating the 10 km at the same time. Roest always won the same pattern, with Ghiotto losing all his advantage in the last 2 laps. We will see what the Italian's form will be like now and how tactically he wants to play it. I would also not forget about Eitrem from Norway, who is much younger from these two and has a lot of room for development.
    • Some good news: Matt Gaetz is out from his position as attorney general, basically two months before he'd even start.
    • Maybe small but this is our worst performance at the European Championships since the post-Covid period and that's a fact. Germany and Norway surprised with their form here. However, only in Italy are things like this possible, such as changing the head coach of the team with less than two years to go before the home games...
    • In my opinion we can lose to Argentina, if it's 0-1 in a moment. This Davis Cup format is a lottery, especially with the shortened doubles. It's no coincidence that all the favorites can/will can be eliminated in the quarter-finals. The second thing is that Argentina has a very solid team: 2 players in the top 30 + a strong doubles. If you sure to will win with them, you would have to have 2 Sinners in great shape.
    • Both Edin and Retornaz at 6-3 just like rank 2 and 3. Just very small margins on h2h and DSC
    • Godun has been training in Italy and Hungary for over 2 years. It's strange that she didn't take a Hungarian passport. Our predecures are so long that it probably wouldn't make sense.
    • Our worst European Men's Championship in this cycle: no promotion to the 1/2. Retronaz has been in poor form since the beginning of the season. The change of the head coach in the Italian team last spring may have had an impact. Unfortunately, the closer to the games, the worse it gets for us and it should be better because we are the organizers.
    • Sport climbing qualification system: https://images.ifsc-climbing.org/ifsc/image/private/t_q_good/prd/a0ga7v4gwmamb3gxouni.pdf
    • Daniel Huber picked up a kee injury during training at Lillehammer.   Piotr Żyła will skip the season opener because of a knee injury too.
    • Agree with you on this. The only missed category was Long Track Speed Skating where Cornelius Kersten and Ellia Smeding have done a good job getting us involved in this event again after many years absence. He won a Bronze medal at 2023 worlds but both are realistically fringe contenders and main goal is to grow the sport here.   As for our general chances by British standards we tend to do well at the various world championships before a Winter Olympics to raise hopes and then several dont quite deliver when its time. Would prefer the reverse to happen where we save our best for 2026 and help boost our Winter sports growth.
