I disagree with Ban: Totalitarian dictatorships tend to use sport in politics anyway, often with disregard for all human considerations (as evidenced by Russia, which has never hesitated to dope massively and officially).

 

Banning countries that do not respect the basic rules of the Olympics seems necessary to me. As long as Russia prefers results to rules and human life, they have no business being at the Olympics, in my opinion.

A respectable opinion.

On the other hand, I understand (even if I don't agree with) those who believe that sports should not ban people for non-sporting reasons. In large part because I recognize that it is almost impossible to objectively determine when it is justified and when it is not.

Also world cup 

 

Trump says 2026 World Cup matches could be moved from Boston, and – if “not safe” – the Olympic Games from Los Angeles!

some of what coe said IS nonsense in that article, but it we are just talking about, for example, hosting pole vault and shot put etc in a more accessable city center venue (like the set up they had at the diamond league finals) i think its a great idea

In an incredible show of efficiency, the 2026 FIFA World Cup matches scheduled for Boston have already been moved more than 30km away from the city! Trump is the most effective president ever!

 

(For anyone who doesn't get the joke, Gillette Stadium, where the "Boston" World Cup matches are scheduled to be played, is famously not anywhere near Boston)

“I could say the same thing for the Olympics, we have events that are in different locations for the Olympics. It’s based in LA. If I thought LA was not going to be prepared properly I would move it to another location if I had to,” Trump said.

“But for that one I would probably have to get a different kind of permission, but I would do that. Gavin Newsom has got to get his act together.”

Trump would need the IOC, and its new president Kirsty Coventry, to agree to any move, but it would be unprecedented in Olympic history.

Unless Eurosport comes back they might not be any full coverage in the UK. TNT will be owned by Netflix while the rest of the discovery group in Europe is being spun off.

Currently in the queue to sign up for a slot to buy tix for LA28!  Anyone else in the queue?

Got in and registered, though they put me in two separate queues.  Hoping to get into the early Southern California purchase slot, though it seems nothing is certain.

    • I will try for Croatia:    Archery (1) : we never had a representative, but were two times very close. I think we have a chance in Recurve for a single male quota, and in mixed compound,  Realistic one quota    Athletics (8) : difficult as many things will change in the next 2-3 seasons, but let's. say 8, I think that could be a realistic number   Badminton (1) : hopefully our Indonesian import will manage to qualify     Basketball (0): small chances in both male and 3x3 male teams , but somehow I doubt it    Boxing (2): two male quotas    Canoe slalom (1). maybe with a small chance for two places, but one is realistic    Canoe sprint (1): similar to slalom, maybe two, but one is realistic, but lets see how the new qualification system plays out    Cycling (2): would bee very happy with a quota in BMX freestyle and male road race    Diving (1): hoping that Matej Nevescanin will qualify    Fencing (0): very small chance in mens foil, but I guess will not happen.    football (0): there is always talks about our male team, but never succeeded, I am afraid will be the same for LA 2028    Artistic gymnastics (4): Kovtun plus two additional male quotes plus one female   Handball (14): the mens team should qualify    Judo (5): four female quota plus one male    Rowing (5). difficult to say as boats/crews are not defined yet. But I expect 4 mens places plus 1 female. Maybe more, but let see    Sailing (6): somehow not a good development in this sports, could be even less than 6 quotas.    Shooting (5): hopefully two trap and two male rifle quotas plus one surprise    Swimming (6): will be brave here and say 5 male plus one female. I think we have a realistic chance to qualify a freestyle relay.    Table tennis (5): hope for 3 male and two female quotas incl. mixed doubles (Arapovic/Ban)   Tennis (6): still too early, and always the question who is really interested in playing.   Taekwondo (3): I am seeing two females plus one male qualifying   Waterpolo (11): mens team should be safe, small chance for our women's team.   Wrestling (1) considering the Russian expansion, one quota would be great     in all other sports hopeless case for Croatia. But 88 would be a great delegation, probably too optimistic
