Somalia lost 0:15 and 0:20 in their games in the first day. Probably they and China won't be in play-off. Tomorrow they plays to fight each other.

One of the completely forgotten parts of sporting history.

Possibly the first professional team sport.

It's a small link with bandy but fascinating....

    • Well. A lot of the music played in Denmark for Christmas is the same as most others (at least Western countries)   But I would say that most Danish Christmas music goes into one of three categories.   All three have plenty of different songs, but I put out some personal favourites   The old songs, mainly religious ones. Some have been made into more modern versions.  For this I pick Gasolin's version of Dejlig er Jorden, an old hymn of which the Danish text is from 1850:       The second is the more funny or sarcastic songs. Making fun of Christmas. An older one of these is Jul, det Cool, a rather funny "anti-christmas song"     English translated lyrics: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/jul-det-cool-christmas-its-cool.html   The third category is from the annual TV advent calendars whose theme songs very often become part of the christmas playlists.   These include both advent calendars made for the families and some more "grown up" versions   Lille Store Verden from the family calendar Juleønsket (The Christmas wish) in 2015     And from the "Grown up" calendar Jul på Vesterbro   English lyrics: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/jul-pa-vesterbro-christmas-vesterbro.html

    • Their fight for Klimov, however, is embarrassing. If they insist on him, they shouldn't be start at all. It's clear that when you help them, they start overreaching instead of thanking, that someone invites them to your country.   https://www.skijumping.pl/wiadomosci/37722/rosjanie-nie-przyjada-do-polski-z-oczywistych-wzgledow-pominiemy-zakopane/
    • Eenzame Kerst - André Hazes (not my cup of tea)
    • Wouldn't be a proper lead-up to an Olympics without plenty of fear-mongering from the media.  There are concerns, but not the existential crisis that some want to make it seem like everything is going to come crashing down.

    • Hi guys, Last minute plans to check off 2 items from my bucket list: 1. Watch the winter olympics 2. See the northern lights Contemplating going for some ski jumping action, have always been fascinated! May put in a few hockey games. Short track speed skating and figure skating are a bit too expensive. Is anyone here going to attend any ski jumping event? I am targeting Men's LH on the 14th and trying to plan my itinerary around it. Would it be worth it? Men's super team on the 16th is also an option but was hoping to leave for Tromso, Norway to chase the lights around that time too (hence preferring the event on the 14th). Please let me know if you have any opinions. Thanks
