c'mon! we all know that all the NOP athletes should be banned for life (and Nike should be banned from being a sportswear supplier)...

 

and we all know what are the names that should end up in the blacklist...a Shelby Houlihan, among others, isn't just enough...it looks she's just the typical scapegoat...

NOP, Federico Rosa's gang and a whole bunch of others like that are shadier than a cave at night :p

I have a bad feeling GB could end up with no medals in Atheltics with KJT and DAS underperforming and none of the other decent chances succeeding. Even no gold medals would see funding becoming a big issue.

I'd be shocked to see no medals at all. Wouldn't now be surprised to see no gold medals though.

How is KJT underperforming? Isn’t she injured?


Also DAS should win 3 medals and you could also medal in women’s 800 m, women’s 1500 m, women’s 4x400 m, maybe women’s pole vault, men’s 800 m, men’s 1500 m and men’s 4x100. I think without KJT you have no safe medals, but overall you should still win 4-6 medals. Your future looks pretty good (thanks to Reekie, Hodgkinson, Hunt, Burgin and some others), but your Problem might be that you are best in the most competitive events (track), where it is the most difficult to medal.

Sara Errani used the same "contaminated meat" excuse (from a tortilla) and it didn't work either :lol:

Jarrison Lawson and Ajee Wilson got away with it, so it wasn’t unreasonable for Hooligan to think that she would get away as well. You also shouldn’t forget that she (coincidentally) kept the receipt from the taco truck, which surprisingly wasn’t enough to prove her innocence ...

If you dope on purpose then of course you'll have some papers ready in case you get caught :lol:

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
