Greece is now a 4-member multi-jury, matching the ever-populous Italian jury

We're Greek. Last-minute preparations are our forte/thing. Don't worry, guys. We're getting there.😂

Woo! More cheap gold medals for Norway? How exciting

Czech Republic: Ondrej Palat (Tampa Bay Lightning), David Pastrnak (Boston Bruins), Jakub Voracek (Columbus Blue Jackets) Finland: Sebastian Aho (Carolina Hurricanes), Aleksander Barkov (Florida Panthers), Mikko Rantanen (Colorado Avalanche) United States: Seth Jones (Chicago Blackhawks), Patrick Kane (Chicago Blackhawks), Auston Matthews (Toronto Maple Leafs)

Can't wait for the mixed team super g to replace the super g proper.

Nothing new then. FIS is nuts. The only federation that is consistently planning to kill off their fully recognized Olympic events. Not to replace them, to kill them.

yeah he acted like a crybaby but serious Iran was in big trouble after losing two matches in the first round and since then we changed the coach and his team won 10 matches (7 WCQ matches + 3 friendly) in a row and set a new record in Iran's history and he is not even a great coach

I'm in for Greece!

I am in for Because if I do not do it, @rybakwill not stop sending me messages, and I will have to go to Poland with a mission and some golf equipment on hands...

Fis will be introducing mixed team sprint and relays soon...

Denmark The Danish Jury has after a long and thorough selection process chosen the folk band, The Rumour Said Fire, with the song "The Balcony". The Rumour Said Fire is a Danish band that was founded back in 2008 by singer, songwriter and guitarist Jesper Lidang. "The Balcony" was the breakthrough song for the band back in 2009. The same year the group won the P3 Guld prize in the category, "The P3 Talent of 2009" in Denmark. I hope you will all enjoy this year's Danish entry for TOISC 2021.

Pretty Cool photos of Snow Farm in NZ. It makes me excited for the season.

Human Growth Hormone and EPO? Hey, leave some drugs for the rest of us, Blessing!

Malta will participate

I will represent

And they were right to take care of the athletes! Anyone who is an active runner knows that it's a lot harder to do in the heat.

I feel like these stories come back every year and usually don't actually happen, so I'm still holding out hope

It doesn't matter Super G is exciting. The schedule has favored the technical skiers for years. Super G is back to pariah status? They need to get rid of this to put more of these parallel city events IMO. I feel like I might not watch alpine skiing in 5-10 years time if the schedule will be 50% parallel slaloms and three downhills per season. Not to mention parallel events where one course is clearly better than the other and you can guess the winner before the start already.

Especially dumb considering the Super-G is consistently one of the best event.

I'm not really surprised with this loss, Italy was already suffering in Euro qualifiers, it's always really hard to renew your motivations after a big win, off Spain has the larger motivation, who needs nations league when u have the Euros

I am in!

Apparently the FIS is thinking of having world championships in all non-Olympic years, having A and B races for the downhill at the world cup level (limiting the A race to 24 skiers) and getting rid of both the combined and the Super-G.

Mario Moccia has been elected as the new President of the Argentine Olympic Committee (COA), succeeding Gerardo Werthein.

i cant understand why Mancini insists to start with "false 9" and not a pure forward

Well that's it for the streak. Who knew Italy can lose in 2021

Things getting very bad for Italy very fast. That Insigne miss could really be a pivotal moment..

Well, it's over. Congrats to the Spaniards

Sweden has also named it's first three players to its team: Mika Zibanejad (New York Rangers), Gabriel Landeskog (Colorado Avalanche), and Victor Hedman (Tampa Bay Lightning). No surprises there.

You are most welcome to join, the more the better I suggest you create a private message thread with @Ted and also include @Yannakis and @Makedonas both of whom participated in the previous TISC edition for Greece and decide together which song you would like to present. It's wonderful to see another nation with many jury members!

I would like to participate for Greece or to join the national jury if @Ted also wants to take part. In that case, I can make some song suggestions to him in a personal message, if he hasn't decided yet.

Damn, the “steriods in my burrito” defense is shot down in flames. These people are harsh! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-9947853/US-distance-runner-Shelby-Houlihan-LOSES-appeal-against-four-year-drugs-ban.html

Juan Pablo Vaulet signed with AEK Athens

(El saltador largo Emiliano Lasa estuvo a 1 cm de avanzar a la final...) Los de voleibol lograron el bronce, ¡felicitaciones!

Plenty of girls, but no one to match Krupeckaitė and Marozaitė in the same team. During Nationals and Baltics Lithuania had several 3-women teams going for the title, but results failed to match federation's qualification standards. Just like our federation refused to send men's team sprint team, despite sending two male sprinters to the championships.
