Enna pa .. We have wind to blame for every sports.. Lets agree we cannot able to handle the pressure

Haha. Not every sport. Because the two sports we are good at, archery and shooting depends on lot of factors. We have only less medal hopes so become upset when they dont win and total pressure is on them. In other countries its not the same. We should develop multi sport culture thats the only way

Double digits was anyways not possible. For that we should have picked atleast 3 in shooting. Now none is sure. May be wrestling because we have a rechapage round.

 

 

Kirupa.. I would be happy if we get 2 medals (or Just 1) now ..but definitely our govt will wake up now ..

Somehow last olympics we got lucky medals in shooting from Vijay Kumar , Gagan narang was bit expected.... This time only jitu rai was prospect and he failed.... This is the result even in World shooting championship where India get mostly 1 or no medals... so expected but those who hardly follow shooting and expecting miracles will consider this as a failure...

But ur larger point is absolutely correct...Most nations that win several medals in shooting win world championships medals consistently....

Whereas in our case, one shooter wins a medal....without much consistency...

I guess this disappointment was bound to happen at some stage.....

Unless we start picking other world event medals consistently, the dream of picking up multiple medals in olympics would remain a distant dream....

That...right there...that's the kind of knee-jerk over the top reactions that needs to end....

Yes, results are bad...yes lots of changes need to happen...

All the changes need to be well-plan and implemented over time.

officials and administrators manage things.......dont go and perform themselves....

we have our biggest contingent ever, something is definitely right......

Making sweeping changes would undo whatever has been done over the last 5-10 years

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
