I hope the Rabat stage (and the European Champs, too) won't be cancelled, even if Italy would have all the interest in frozing the situation as it is today... it wouldn't be fair for all those athletes who are on the edge to make their dream come true and won't have any other chance in the future because of that bunch of idiots running the IOC sports commission (opting for the senseless breakdance instead of one of the most ancient, most popular and participated disciplines in the world)...

Vic Liu 1,558 Posted March 1, 2020 #126 Share Posted March 1, 2020 May I know when and where is the European Championships, that could give us a guess if it will be canceled. Gong Li won 2 stages to almost catch up with Elena Quirici. I have confidence in her but if both EC and Rabat are both canceled, all of her effort will be in vain.
