I guess it's different in Italy, since it's very good here. Plus it's absolutely dirt cheap in February, so even though many people here like to complain about ES and the player, it works absolutely perfect (at least here it does).

 

I think it's more about personal feeling...;)

the ES Player here works as good as in the rest of Europe (provided you have a good internet connection), but to me a 720p/5000kbps/25fps stream is not good enough...as I wrote before, I'm used to MLB.tv, NHL.tv, NFL GamePass, Amazon and Netflix streams...1080i/p and 60fps for sports streams are a "must" for me (I'm OK with lower fps rate only in movies and tv series, since they were born with that features)...

and I guess they also have some encoding problems, because the difference in the viewing experience between ES Player and the other services I mentioned above it's really too big (and not in favor of the ESP)...

 

about being cheap...there's no doubt about it...I got a 12-month offer for only 15€ :yikes::lol: (and here in Italy they also have our National Basketball Championship and the Euroleague as exclusive rights -actually our BB league also has a 1-game slot on our FTA public channel Raisport+, but that's just a marginal part of the whole tournament)...

Well then I do think there's a difference in quality, since the qualify here is basically the same as it's for Netflix or MLB.tv ;) 

 

If there even is a difference, it's as good as invisible. Even the HD on my TV is not better than what the ES Player is showing here, which is as clear as I could imagine. Oh well, the main thing: it's dirt cheap, great quality and shows an absolute shitload of stuff, so no complaints here.

probably your TV is better than mine (it doesn't take that much...my TV is a old cheap model...I'm just waiting the big offer on the 2018 models later in the year to get a new 4K one :lol:;)) and adjusts the pictures more effectively...:d

I follow the Olympics obsessively, so I decided to build this database so I can track every event, every athlete, every medal, everything, myself! Thought you guys would enjoy as well.

The scheduling of tomorrow is a total joke apart from other days , in 10 am local time we have ice dance , ski slope style and big air all in the same time , then we have only some curling and USA vs. Finland match till 8 pm local time , in a day with no many finals like this , it was really possible to divide qualifications over the whole period

    • Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina   Let's do this for a country that is not actually that good in winter sports as well as our Olympic Committee Declining lots of places.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
