It looks certain now that Sushil will miss Rio Games. I am very disappointed with him for giving qualifying tournaments a miss. You can't stay injured for 4 years com'on! You don't become greater than the game even if you achieve so much. You just can't expect everything served to you and you won't give any try from your side.

 

I still want Sushil to be there and win a medal coz he is the best wrestler we ever sent to the Games and a medal is sure but he shouldn't have taken things for granted. Very unprofessional

@Smit Well described incident...I think Narsingh is going to get us the meal...We are totally ignoring him..He earned this by winning the meal in world Championships n not in qualifying tournament, that too it was first chance and all participated. So give him his share of glory.

I'm surprised that people are still in support of Sushil(probably India's best athlete of the past, I don't deny that). Medal or no medal, Narsingh should go. Moreover he has improved a lot and now is a consistent performer. How long will we keep living in the past. What has Sushil done, since the London Olympics? Look at countries like Japan how they suspended a sure shot medalist like Momota in Badminton, of-course for different reasons, but the point here is if we are to grow as a sporting nation, we have to abide by some principles, Sushil clearly seems to have lost focus on what he was best at. Just now in women's boxing we have realized, that we have to look beyond Mary and Sarita, to the future like Sonia. Think about the Australian cricket team of the past, how a world cup winning captain was removed in year or so after winning the world cup. Sports is ruthless, and that is the beauty of it, the earlier we realize that, the better for our future.

My Point is crystal clear, if Narsingh is better than Sushil, then he can go through the trials , just dont understand the crux behind this... why there is a fear...

    • One of the best-ever Women's Relays this afternoon in Ruhpolding.  Unfortunately stuck away on a midweek afternoon so not many people will have seen it.  Must watch though.  No spoilers yet!
    • The IOC is very TV ratings and ticket sale focused when it comes to sports to add / drop, seemingly. Which is probably not the best metric to use, but it does explain why alpine snowboarding is in more trouble than something like aerials or ski half-pipe (which should probably be closer to the chopping block if we go by competitive depth).
    • Thursday January 15th, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +1)   13:00   Japan vs France 16:30   Denmark vs Norway 20:00   Italy vs Germany
    • all races are shown on public tv in places like Italy, Austria and streamed all around the Continent on the Discovery+/HBO Max popularity, instead, is another story... except maybe in Austria, tv ratings are marginal and the athletes are basically unknown, like in all the non-mainstream sports (which means, here in Italy, football, ferrari and -the newcomer in the last few years- Sinner, who replaced Valentino Rossi in this very poor list)   ps at least, there are quite a few kids practicing the sport in our mountain villages
    • Finally got in as well after about an hour-ish in line.
    • Nobody in the US watches it is the problem the IOC has. That and it's kinda dead as a grassroots sport - I ski and I've only seen one Alpine board in my entire life. It was displayed in a store as a curiosity and it was *old*. Much easier to participate in snowboardcross at a recrational level.   I don't think it should be removed, but Alpine snowboarding has a perception problem as a dead sport, at least outside of Europe (I don't have a good sense of how often Alpine snowboarding is shown on TV in Europe and how popular those broadcasts are).
    • Got in and registered, though they put me in two separate queues.  Hoping to get into the early Southern California purchase slot, though it seems nothing is certain.
    • Parallel Slalom Team WC Bad Gastein    Mixed Team Gold-  Italy 2 (Lucia Dalmasso/Aaron March) Silver-  Switzerland 1 (Dario Caviezel/Julie Zogg) Bronze-  Italy 3 (Gabriel Messner/Jasmin Coratti)    Karner/Pichelkastner in 4th    Full Results
