IJsbrand :cheer:

 

 

Is it really "IJsbrand" and not "Ijsbrand"? Seeing that capital J more often than not annoys me. :p

 

But anyway, IJsbrand/Ijsbrand kind of flopped on yesterday's marathon...

Yes, it really is IJsbrand :p 

 

The 'ij' is considered to be one letter in Dutch and so both are written in capital form in a name or at the beginning of a sentence (when a sentence start with 'IJshockey' for example, ice hockey).

Look! Apparently an Olympic fencing champion from 1976 has randomly appeared at the presentation ceremony.

No, that's just silly.

 

Spoiler

'Brand' means fire, so his literally translated name would be 'Ice Fire'.

Why does that lady on the right have one of those cheap airline flight attendant scarfs around her neck?

Well, flight attendant randomly appearing only fulfills this random picture of randomness.

By the way, is it me, is it this picture or has Bach gotten really much fatter lately?

 

I don't think it's the picture. Probably just all those mixed gender meals he's been devouring.

    • That was known from the start for  and will be planned for.   Sadly just the reality of sports in North America. Canada and the US are both huge, a flight from Vancouver to Halifax or from Seattle to Miami is north of five hours. Every sports league in North America has to deal with this kind of travel logistics on the regular, so none of this will seem particularly unusual to a North American player.
    • That’s not a long distance, it’s barely a 2h flight and there is no difference in timezone. Easily doable for fans as well.
