Can you believe that Benedikt Doll has an Olympic medal in pursuit??

 

If there ever was a proof of how ludicrous that event really is...

I don't need that proof :lol: I like it as a World Cup event, not as a separate Olympic medal event

Mixed feelings for Lithuania today, the shooting was off for Vytautas Strolia, but the others shot well, just not enough pace on the skis.

 

Takeaway result here is the 66th place from Linas Banys, with 0+0 shooting. It's his PB result, previously it was 76th from Soldier Hollow, so it's nice to see that he's improving.

 

Pretty respectable from Maksim Fomin, knowing that he was thrust into World Cup earlier than expected, due to Kaukėnas illness. Good to see he kept it together on the shooting range today and only missed the final shot.

 

49th and 60th for Karol and Vytautas. I'd expect Karol to at least get to 40th if he's missing one shot and as for Vytautas, nearly all of his missed shots are the second shot, he needs to fix that. Doubt he's gonna run in the pursuit from that 60th place.

    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
    • More information has been released on the first edition of the World Athletics Ultimate Championships in 2026, including the events. Mixed 4x100m relay will make its global debut.    https://x.com/worldathletics/status/1859915183071662442?s=46&t=_XjleMNZelg_AVmJy7FfWA

    • is considering US born goalie Joey Daccord for the upcoming 4 Nations Face-Off.    https://thehockeynews.com/news/team-canada-is-seriously-considering-usa-born-joey-daccord-for-4-nations-face-off   .923 SV% in 13 games, and 9-3-1 on the season. Would be a big pickup for our goalie issues. 
    • Anyway...let's hope that this is the last time this year we see a brownfield competition!  
    • But if you go to her Instagram, you also get the impression that she is more of a celebrity than a volleyball player.
