  2. @dcro @Jur @Makedonas @JoshMartini007 @LowerSaxony I'm thinking of writing a story about World Athletics denying non-100m athletes universality spots... people deserve to know about it. If anyone knows of any other cases where athletes were denied spots and replaced by sprinters, please let me know! So far we have Tyrone Smith (long jump) and Gopi Chandra Parki (marathon), but I bet there could be more. In the 100m start lists, eight athletes I found are specialized in other events, according to World Athletics records. Women: (400m/800m), (triple jump), (100m hurdles), (400m hurdles) Men: (5000m/10000m), (1500m), (110m hurdles), (800m/1500m)

  3. Tokyo 2020 is offering two different Fantasy/Prediction contests in their Fanzone, and so I’ve gone ahead and set up leagues for Totallympics users. You’ll need to create an “Olympic ID” to play (this is your olympics.com account for use at the Olympic Channel and in interactive zones such as this, it is completely free). I recommend using your Totallympics username as your Olympic ID username (if possible), so that we can identify you more easily. Here’s a link to the fanzone home page: https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/en/fanzone/ The first contest is known as “Fantasy.” Here’s a link to the home page for the contest, where you can join the Totallympics league: https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/en/fanzone/olympic-fantasy/. You should be able to begin selecting your team members in about 8 days, make sure to read the contest rules. Use the following code to join our league: 3HK4YMTY The second contest is known as “Brackets.” Here’s a link to the home page for the contest, where you can join the Totallympics league: https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/en/fanzone/olympic-bracket-challenge/. Again, you should be able to begin making your predictions in about 8 days, make sure to read the contest rules. KTEDNARJ I’ve tagged some users that might be interested in playing below, but any Totallympics users are welcome to play of course! @Henry_Leon @Griff88 @Vojthas @Gianlu33 @Agger @Wumo @heywoodu @Pablita @Dunadan @tuniscof @toulousain @SteveParker

  4. Despite this questionable penalty I'm very disappointed with the danish coach, removed all his attacking threat for no reason in the 67th minute when the game was 1-1 and it looked like it was going to be a long affair.

  18. Spain has a great squad and they are in my opinion the favorites for Gold. However, I wonder whether especially those players will perform as expected. They had a long season with their clubs, the European Championships right afterwards and now, after a break of a few days, the next big tournament waiting. So it's absolutely possible that they are reaching their physical and mental limits and are not able to perform on the level which they showed us during the Euro. Still, if Germany manages to reach the QF I really hope we can avoid Spain there

  21. For Canada, I think 24 total with 4-5 golds would be expected. This is probably the most unpredictable Olympics since WWII, even at the Games there could be an outbreak which sidelines half the athletes competing.

  22. @ahjfcshfghb the guy from is a long jumper, who has also competed in the sprints in the past. My gut tells me he asked for a long jump entry, but was given a 100m entry instead. I can’t confirm this, but this is something you could look into. I’d absolutely recommend pushing that story ATR’s way.

  23. Personne ne veut vendre la mèche, mais tout indique que c’est le scénario qui sera présenté à la presse mercredi. À tout le moins, les gens sondés dans le milieu lundi étaient tous très optimistes pour [elle]. My quick and dirty translation: Nobody wants to talk about it on the record, but everything indicates that this scenario [LVL competing in C-1 and C2] will be announced to the press on Wednesday. In any case, insiders we spoke to on Monday appeared to be optimistic [for LVL’s chances].

  25. my all time favorite wrestler Heiki "do nothing" Nabi is now facing 2 years ban for doping violation. Estonia still uses the quota sending another wrestler "Artur Vititin" I hated him for being extremely boring. for killing the sport with his "doing nothing" style. but I didn't know he is a cheater as well. good for him.

  26. I think the result itself is deserved, just not like how it went down with that "pen". England was clearly the better team for the second 60 minutes of the match once Denmark sabotaged itself with those subs. One way or another England would have scored anyway during the extra time. v seems to be about right for this tournament, the two most consistently solid teams of EURO 2020.

  27. I really dislike the current format for repechage. I’d prefer to see the 4 quarterfinal losers face off in two repechage semifinals, with the winners facing the semifinal losers for bronze.

    This CBC article confuses things even more: https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/summer/canoe-kayak/canoe-sprint-team-laurence-vincent-lapointe-1.6092940 "Canoe Kayak Canada told CBC Sports on Wednesday it would enter a C2 500 team, though it was still waiting on approval from the International Olympic Committee." I would be surprised if ICF allowed Canada to announce LVL if the spot wasn't confirmed.

  39. Yes that’s exactly it, Brendan Hyland achieved the OST and was invited by FINA so he and Shane Ryan will swim the relay along with the 2 relay-only swimmers (McMillan and McKeever). Swim Ireland said that Hyland was the only invitation they received from FINA for an OST swimmer and that was fortunate as it allowed them to participate in the relay. It was also fortunate for Hyland as Swim Ireland said in any other circumstance they wouldn’t have accepted any OST invitation from FINA

    Korekcija vezana uz Tomic, jer izgleda domaćin automatski dobiva mjesto 4 nositelja. Tomic sada pada na 6 mjesto i dobiva možda lakši ždrijeb: kolumbija u prvom kolu , pa Yildirim iz Turske pa Bogdanović iz Srbije. Teško ali za nju vjerovatno bolje. kod ostalih nema Japanaca tako bez promjena.

  42. I've said this like 100 times already, but the Armenian girl used to be a Greek triple jumper. She switched to Armenia a few weeks ago (probably has distant Armenian roots based on her surname and the fact that many Armenians settled in Greece after the Armenian Genocide), then ran her first 100m a week and a half ago. It seems like all she wanted was to get an Olympic chance, hence the switch to Armenia and probably at that point she was willing to do 100m. No way was she going to decide not to go to Tokyo simply because she couldn't get into her preferred event after she already switched to Armenia (presumably only for the Olympic chance). With Greece she never would've had a chance of getting a universality spot.
