A small bit of personal news, if y’all don’t mind me sharing… I made my debut at Around the Rings this week. You can check out my first article here if you’d like: https://www.infobae.com/aroundtherings/articles/2021/09/09/vaccinations-to-be-required-for-participants-at-the-2021-winter-universiade-in-switzerland/ As always, I appreciate the support I have received over the last few years from this community.

and it is official. Best on best tournament woohoo !!!

Quite happy with the outcome of these qualification tournaments tbh. Slovakia and Latvia have some of the best hockey fans in the world and Denmark is by far the best hockey nation that had never qualified for the Olympics.

Congrats for the very first historic qualification for the Mens Ice Hockey Olympics tournament - 0-2

All 24 qualified teams confirmed. Host Defending champions CEV CSV Norceca CAVB AVC FIVB World Ranking

Olmos is in the mixed doubles final, partnering with Arevalo

Yes, I've seen that, but apparently it's not true. There is a college volleyball (!) game in the Philippines that attracted more and also a world championship game in Brasil in 1994 like this calm and very rational tweet would like us to reminder.

And the memes start to appears....

is it me, or there's a strong English-speaking bunch of people trying to get the full command on the "new" weightlifting world, so to get as many free passes on doping as the old guard have (and as they have now in sports like swimming, athletics, cycling)? what they're doing only looks a classic West vs East ideological and political battle, not just something "for the good of the sport"... I don't think Miss Davies and her friends are totally "beyond any reasonable suspicion" too, when they try to manouvre the weightlifting politics for the next few years...

Done ! every single TV covered second of the Tokyo 2020 on one place (They also added the missing Day 2 Swimming Heats and Badminton Court 1 action of both sessions) so we have really everything in this database. All Days Links are in the opening post of this thread. Enjoy ! and good re-watching

Rwanda was disqualified by CAVB after participating 4 ineligible Brazilian players in women's African volleyball championship , the day after the decision Rwandan authorities upheld the tournament due to Corona virus

And Simona Halep

I like it more, the venue is 3.5 k from my house

Unlike Serena Williams I think he will still go on to break the record, though.

TISC Open 2021 Bidding Process: Just a reminder that we are still open for receiving bids for hosting the Totallympics Open International Song Contest 2021. The bidding remains open until Wednesday 15th, September, 21:00 GMT so anyone interested please post on thread before then. Thanks to @Dnl for putting his hat into the ring TISC Open 2021 Host Candidates: Israel

Today, on my 30th birthday, pretty much all COVID restrictions have been lifted in Denmark! We're free!

the main point also is that Leylah hasn't got there by chance , she earned this final by defeating the top possible opponents in each round , Osaka , Kerber , Sivotlina and Sabalenka all in 3 sets which makes it even more awesome as the experienced player is always the favorite when it comes to a 3rd set

Filipino athlete Fernandez (pirated by Canada) wins again. Good job.

Chinese media quoted BBC reporting that Beijing2022 is expected with full capacity of spectators. Let me put this clear, if authority wants to promote something with controversy then mainstream media will firstly report them quoting from foreign media. If it finds that people support the decision then it will do it. If if finds people oppose it then it will said it's rumor from overseas. Chinese national games will be held from 15th Sep. to 28th Sep. with at least 50% spectators and I bought tickets already. It's also a major test event to decide if spectators will be allowed for WOG.

After silver in London and bronze in Rio, Brazil finally gets the gold medal in Men's Goalball

ABBA WILL COME BACK WITH A NEW ALBUM WITH 10 NEW SONGS!!!!!!!! Love it!!! One of the new songs!! https://www.expressen.se/noje/uppgifter-abba-slapper--ny-musik-i-kvall1/

Yes, because making an appeal against an athlete - a mental disabled athlete - for the sole reason oh him being late is the true definition of sportsmanship of course. What a complete load of bullshit. Could they at least have the minimum decency to shut the fuck up ?

this sounds a bit positive https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1112328/weightlifting-congress-vote

The world famous winter resorts of Beijing and Milano obviously.

ROAD TO BEIJING 2022 Slovaks off to the Games The 12th and final men’s ice hockey berth at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing went down to the wire between Slovakia and Belarus. Before a sometimes delirious, often nervous, partisan crowd of 7,105 – the maxim allowed under public health regulations – at Bratislava’s Ondrej Nepela Arena, Slovakia won 2-1 to gain the spot. In fact, Slovakia only needed one point to gain the spot, and that’s essentially what they got, with Libor Hudacek scoring the game-winning goal into an empty net as Belarus went for it all in the late going. With the stakes so high, it’s no surprise that the teams came out full of energy, but Belarusian defenceman Sergei Sapego got carried away when he checked Juraj Slafkovsky from behind into the boards at 4:05. Sapego was assessed a major penalty and game misconduct and put enormous pressure on his team’s penalty-killing units, which had already had to kill off one penalty early on. It took little time for the Slovaks to strike, with captain Marek Hrivik from the blueline setting up former Leksands IF linemate Peter Cehlarik for the one-timer that beat Danny Taylor over the glove to the near side. There was still 4:27 to go in the five-minute penalty, but if there was any relief for Belarus, it was that a double-minor for high-sticking to Adam Ruzicka negated the last 2:03 of the major. Slovakia outshot Belarus 18-6 in the opening period but, thanks to the netminding of Taylor, it remained a one-goal game at the intermission. And just over a minute into the second period, the game was tied. Shane Prince spun away from a check in the corner and fed the puck out front, where a wild scramble ensued, and captain Yegor Sharangovich was apparently the last Belarusian player to touch the puck before it crossed the goal line. In general, the second period was played more cautiously than the first but there were chances – the best going to Slovakia’s Kristian Pospisil, who in the 28th minute blocked a shoot-in attempt at his own blueline and was off to the races. In alone on Taylor, he interestingly chose to wind up and take a slap shot, which didn’t fool the Belarusian keeper. The more time that passed, the less margin for error there was on either side, and the more nervous the fans in Bratislava became. As long as the game remained tied, Slovakia was okay, but just one goal against could put them in deep trouble and with each shot on Konrad, the Slovak fans held their collective breath. As the third period moved into its last five minutes, Belarus began taking more and more chances, and with under three minutes to go and play headed into the Slovak end, Craig Woodcroft decided to pull Taylor for a sixth attacker. The move backfired as the puck bounced out into the netural zone, Hudacek gained centre and fired the game-winning goal into the empty net with 2:17 to play. IIHF.COM

First ever TT medal for Bhavina Patel gets Silver in TT class 4

I somehow missed Kate O’Brien's life threatening injury. That silver paralympic medal must be really sweet.

What US and some its value sharing allies don’t understand is that in poor countries with poverty what people urgently need is not freedom or democracy. They may even never think about that. What they need is food and clean water. The next step is meat, shelter and land. The next next step is money, education and healthcare. The final is step is dignity, recognition, freedom and democracy. But the west just skip all this and tell them democracy cures all and you should fight and die for it.

First ever Israeli-Arab athlete to win a medal in OG/PG and with gold!! and now it’s all over the place and publish in every Israeli platform there is, everyone is happy and for a day now less worries so it’s a big win for us today

Situation about the Belgian men's team: https://www.hln.be/sport/grootschalige-fraude-3x3-lions-organiseerden-fictieve-wedstrijden-om-op-olympische-spelen-te-geraken-boic-wacht-af~a808e67d Basically it says there's been a major fraud, in which Belgium entered 27 tournaments in the FIBA systems where their players gained enough points to get into the OQT and eventually qualify for Tokyo. Mongolia-style, basically, but as far as I know the tournaments in Mongolia were at least actually played, whereas here it says the Belgian tournaments were entirely made up and not a ball was actually touched...

Hey fellow Totallympians I have an announcement to make about my role as Prediction Contest manager and the future of prediction contests. From the beginning of the next year, I would like to step down as sole Prediction Contest manager. As my time at the university is coming to and, I would like to focus more of my time on applying for job positions from the beginning of next year. Also one of the reason behind my decisions is that I have been much less active in the threads since I became Prediction Contest manager. Especially during the Olympics with five prediction contests which took most of my time during the day. I felt quite stressed during that period. But I knew the period would be short and end a couple of weeks later. For Beijing 2022 I definitely need some help, as there would probably be more predicton contests than during Tokyo. I know my life will change with more time focused on applying for a job position. Plus I have a personal life that means everything to me and I would like more time for that. I plan to still be part of the prediction contest group, but I would mostly only be able to manage 1 contest per month. I would therefore like to ask if someone or more people on the forum could be interested in being my co-manager/s from the beginning of 2022. I would guide the person/people in how to run the prediction contests. Make prediction design, etc... And by time, that person/people will take over the role as manager/s. I hope by getting a co-manager/s, and by time stepping more down, I will find a balance to both manage my work and private life. Also additionally, have more time to be active on this forum in other ways. My passion is athletics and I want to be more active in that thread and also have time for especially winter sports who also gives me great pleasure to follow. In short, I would like to seek for one or more co-managers at first by the beginning of next year. If anyone is interested to become co-manager or hear more about it, you can send me a PM and we can talk about it. I hope there will be at least someone who would like to take over my role by time. I really enjoy these prediction contest and I know many really appreciate the work me and all those before me have made to make these contests possible. I hope these contests can continue to bring together the community on Totallympics. That's all from me, Wumo

Malta won a medal at the European Championships for 49er FX.

With 4 points after Group stage, we had joined the round of 16.

Why does it seem like we say this quite often?

this will be Canada vs Canada , China vs Philippines , Ecuador vs Romania , GBR vs Canada OFC a lot of people can enjoy the party apart from 2 totallympics' members

So does it mean that North Korea is banned to participate Beijing 2022? Actually many North Korean live in Beijing and they don't have to travel or quarantine, some of them can participate if granted wild card.

Speed Skating Canada has just announced the composition of their 2021-2022 Special Olympic Qualification Competitions - (SOQC) Racing Pool Composition The members of the SOQC Racing Pool will represented Canada on the World Cup circuit this fall.

First best-on-best tournament since 2014 (lets forget about the abomination that the 2016 World Cup was)

A medal for ! I'm surprised! After I didn't expect any new countries to win medals for the first time, especially because in 2016 and 2012 only one new country earned a medal in each edition: in 2016 and in 2012.

I just wanted to share one of my favourite interviews ever. Silver medal winner Nicole Turner’s joy is infectious

Hi All I’ve been dipping in and out of this forum as a guest for a while so thought it was about time I signed up. I’m always a big fan of the Olympics when it comes round and already looking forward to being part of the journey to Beijing 2022 and beyond.
