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

    • Snow and wind in Ruka this morning, so the scheduled Ski Jumping round was cancelled - good news is that they did manage a provisional round yesterday, so that's going to be used as the base for the race later this afternoon.     Nightmare for Ilves  who won in Norway last week - he starts in dead last place, down among the dead men in the Wave.    Viessmann FIS Nordic Combined Provisional Round Ruka (FIN)    
    • Interesting remark by the  Comms - apparently FIS have restructured their definitions of Cross Country wins, to reduce the impact of all those semi-wins in stage races with a start advantage, so Johaug is now put on 82 wins.   Obviously prompted by Shiffrin on 99....
