Yeah, plus it fits perfectly in Russia's earlier pattern of sabotaging their pipe lines to other places (Georgia, Central Asia) to get what they want, and to sow division. But no, it's not the country that started this war in the first place that did something, but the big bad west :lol: 

 

And even if it's dumb from Russia, it wouldn't even be their dumbest move of 2022. I mean, they started a war which made everyone see that the 'feared' Russian army is nothing but a rusty pile of decades old crap, manned by a bunch of insanely unmotivated war criminals and nobody's.

still, if they start a nuclear conflict, it would erase the entire world...

 

don't underestimate the real power of all the weapons (not only on the Russian side) that haven't been used yet...

 

stupid human beings still have the chance to make it a global disaster (more than it is right now...and it's not a little thing already)...

Luckily Putin doesn't literally have a red button on his desk that will launch all missiles, so the chance of a true nuclear conflict is still as good as zero in my opinion.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

he cant launch a nuclear attack in such a close distance t russian borders, this will have consequences to its own territories and people. He considers that he will scare ukrainians using nuclear therats

I really don't think Putin cares if it'll have consequences to Russian people :p 

 

But yeah, I still think it's highly unlikely to see nuclear action, luckily.

Yeah, I still think these threats are just screams in the dark.

 

Firstly as we know the Russians, their nuclear weapons are likely out of order and rusty for like 30 years or so, or pieces of them just stolen and taken to nearest pawn shop 5 straight meters from Kremlin. Probably also the so famous Putin´s push button doesn't work either, the cables were likely stolen too or more likely never actually been working ever.

 

Secondly, Putin may be dangerous and stubborn obsessed maniac, but I doubt he´s that crazy. He know very well, this may very likely be the last think he did in his life and all that just for some kms of land whom still nobody outside of him will ever recognize

don't take it for granted...

 

if this one really works, that's enough for all of us to disappear soon...

    • those who say that in the future, due to global warming and lack of snow, all sports at the Winter Olympics will have to be held indoors. Do you even think about what you are talking about? The FIS Cross-Country World Cup distances are 20 km skiathlon and 50 km mass start. Is there even a facility in the world that can host 20 and 50 km races? Is it possible? Well, let's imagine that such a facility was built somewhere in Paris and Monaco. Les Rousses spent so much money on building the tracks and infrastructure and then kicked it out of the FIS Cross-Country World Cup because Paris and Monaco, which have more money came to the FIS Cross-Country World Cup. Places like Les Rousses would simply go bankrupt trying to popularize the FIS Cross-Country World Cup, do we really need that?
    • Any word about TV Coverage?  Discovery has the five senior races as normal, but no sign of the age group races.  Locked away on Belgian payTV?
    • Ah good, was wondering what the relationship of Endurance Rowing was to Coastal Rowing.  They're wimping out a bit holding it at Genoa though, would prefer somewhere a bit more storm-tossed.  
    • This was pretty fun to watch  Coverage was fine, racing was fun, no problem at all.
    • Thanks @phelps for gathering information   but World Skate is an Olympic federation now, yet they can't provide a basic result system for their main event.    OK I'm not asking for a live score system, but how hard it is to post results in PDF after each event ?    not talking about the sport but this IF doesn't deserve to be in the Olympics. 
    • from Thursday, Sept. 12th through Sunday, Sept. 15th,  Genua hosts the Coastal Rowing World Championships in the Olympic Format (Beach Sprint)   it's the first championship since the discipline has been elected to the Olympic stage   last week, the Endurance World Championships were also held in Genua     the champions:   CW1x:  Monika Dukarska   CM1x:  Finlay Hamill   CW2x:  Katharina Lobnig, Magdalena Lobnig CM2x:  Igor Khmara, Stanislav Kovalov CW4x+:  Anna Sarah Sophie Souwer, Kiri English-Hawke, Marieke Keijser, Karolien Florijn, Dieuwke Fetter CM4x+:  Yuriy Ivanov, Mykola Mazur, Ivan Futryk, Ivan Dovhodko, Anastasiia Kozyr CMix2x:  Patricio Rojas Aznar, Amanda Gil Camacho
    • One more nation to reach decent number of 30 participants.
    • Inline Slalom   women's Slalom   Gold:  Mona Heller Silver:  Lorenza Cesaris Bronze:  Manuela Schmohl   men's Junior Slalom   Gold:  Mattia Pè Silver:  Christian Rondi Bronze:  Marcos Arias Sanchez
