Maybe this is not over. I wonder what happens if FEI was to hasty in awarding the spot to Argentina?

 

In any case, Canada will be taking this to CAS...

If you discount Nicole's score then Canada finishes with 84.07 points (seventh place). The disaster of a first qualifier from Lisa Ann Carlsen would count as Canada would only have a team of three athletes so no scores would be dropped. The only way to save Canada's quota would be to argue that Walker shouldn't be disqualified.

Yeah, poor Lisa Carlsen didn't have the greatest championship comeback (first since Seoul 1988). Her score was the one you get for elimination in speed competition (worst finishing score + 20 penalties).

Piggy French dropped a bomb today by announcing that Quarrycrest Echo, a real stalwart of British eventing team, has been sold to Japan.

 

Deadline for horse transfer is January 15th. Horses that change nationality after that will not be eligible to compete in Tokyo.

:LUX Umbach must be on a nice French payroll. He was already ridiculous in Madrid, and now again in Frankfurt.

 

I just can't stand these complecent cheaters anymore. :sick:

Have you tried showing the FEI evidence?

Probably nothing can be done without some hard off-competition evidence (which I have no doubt exist).

 

The sadest part is that probably all of this will be for nothing, as both Austria and France will likely go through anyway. Nevertheless there are people (Saleh, Umbach) ready to make complete mockery of their own profession, just to help some terrible mediocrity that is French dressage team. Ugh.

What nationalities are the judges?

    • Not sure yet, this is not the final ranking + there's still an elimination after 30 votes - all will be revealed at 19:00 GMT in the closing ceremony. 
    • They claim the other side to be fascist and dictatorial but themselves aren't willing to accept the popular mandate. 
    • Congrats to @Hipooofor a well deserved win. Amazing song.   Congratulations to the 3rd place @Erigert. So happy for you and well done.    Thank you @Cinnamon Bunfor all your hard work. Well done. 
    • It’s always kind of fascinating to me the extend to which MAGAs hate around half of the country.   Not that this current doesn’t also exist on the left, but ya know, just seems like an odd posture to take for someone who claims to be a patriot.   Anyway, unfortunatly I don’t have any tears to donate because I’ve never cried over politics, the only times I’ve cried as an adult were when my dad died and when I was divorcing my ex. The extend to which I don’t cry is actually a bit unhealthy and I’m working on it!   Anyway, Stitch is super queer and neurodivergent coded, and he’s an illegal alien living in a deep blue state, so he probably voted for Harris. And unlike me he can give you some tears.

    • I think this is the least good of the games since… either Salt Lake or Turin.   I still like it, we don’t really get bad looks of the game anymore.   Pictograms are solidly okay imo.

    • Given Trump wants a law saying that only gender assigned at birth should be recognized, I wonder how such a law (along with any laws "protecting women’s sports") would affect athletes with DSDs. Because it would make it illegal to consider athletes like Caster Semenya or Imane Khelif as anything other than female, since that’s their gender assigned at birth and that’s apparently immutable.   There is an interesting tension there.
    • I honestly don't like them very much, but that's because I prefer a minimalist approach on the Rio 2016 model. I loved those pictograms. But hey, at least they are definitely better than Paris 2024
    • Can't imagine being anyone better to be on top for the Olympics and the world cup.  Someone who loves America so much and will demand a full spectacle to show our strength and power.    This is the unsung benefit of his amazing elections.    I wasnt going to go to the opening ceremony.  But now I definetly will!
