Just a reminder. NATO started brutal campaign of bombing Yugoslavia in 1999, today is 24th "anniversary". I wonder how Totallympics users would react in these days, would they condemn civilian victims and protect human rights... I faced those times personally, banning of Yugoslavia athletes in 1992-1995 likewise. Every time i will say - let the athletes compete, as long as they take neutral stance. I dont have simpathy for Russia but this level of xenophobia and hatred is indeed shocking.

All speculations about Liu Brothers are clear now. They will participate Chinese national championships on 2023/03/31-2023/04/02 and represented Team Tianjin where their father is from. This event is also served as trials of national team for next season. Their performance will definitely be the spot light of the event and they need it to convince fans and team.

Despite a Feeder event in starting in a few days, there is a break in the action before the Champions events begin in early April. Couple that with me needed something to do to pass the time today, I decided to go ahead and do a quota sim for Table Tennis.

In hindsight I think this is a big win for Russia. Lifting that state-sponsored doping ban would always be the more difficult task and could have been extended indefinitely. Now it's gone and people don't notice it since the war is more important. After the war ends you will be Russians reinstated into competition and many people will wonder what happened with the doping ban.

Very nice photos @Vektor thank you! Tickets have been bought, we have a place to stay, we are coming 100%. Should be fun!!!

Josh Liendo won 100m Butterfly, and 100m Freestyle bronze at the 2022 World Aquatic Championships. Plus you have Illya Kharun, who’s one of the of the most promising junior swimmers in the world at the moment. Sure they don’t field as strong of a team as their female counterparts, but saying they’re “almost nonexistent”

Hey @rafalgorka, I was in Budapest very recently and had a chance to go near the stadium (other side of the Danube at Kopaszi gát), so I thought I would share it here. I took the picture with the shity camera of my shity phone, so yeah, it is what it is. And also, the best view from Kopaszi gát was at an old boat, I didn't plan this to compare the two. Also, Kopaszi gát was lovely as always. Such a nice place near the stadium. You get a nice view of the new tallest building of Hungary as well, the MOL Campus, the first structure near the size of a skyscraper in Budapest.

2023 Pan Am Games Qualification Tournament for Taekwondo took place from March 22-23, 2023. Here’s where Canada secured quotas; Poomsae Women’s Individual - 1 Men’s Individual - 1 Kyorugi Women’s -49kg - 1 Women’s -57kg - 1 Women’s -67kg - 1 Men’s -58kg - 1 Men’s -68kg - 1 Men’s -80kg - 1 Men’s +80kg - 1 We missed out on qualification in the Women’s -67kg category via Rachel Fountain. Anyways I’m bored, so I’ll try to predict the team that’ll be representing Canada at the 2023 Pan Am Games in taekwondo. Poomsae Men’s Individual- Jinsu Ha (WR #9) Poomsae- Women’s Individual- Michelle Lee (WR #12) (Not to be confused with Michelle Li ) Poomsae- Mixed Pair- Jinsu Ha/Michelle Lee Kyorugi Women’s -49kg - Viviane Tranquille Women’s -57kg - Skylar Park Women’s -67kg - Ashley Kraayeveld Men’s -58kg - Nicholas Hoefling Men’s -68kg - Tae-Ku Park Men’s -80kg - Jordan Stewart Men’s +80kg - Marc-André Bergeron

3-0 Czech Republic! Kuchta scores in 65th minute Made Kiwior look like an Arsenal bench player indeed.

Sadly there no more 50km races, only the name remains as Dudinská fifty. But the races will be 35km for both M & W However the start list are pretty well packed as such prestigious event like the Dudince race deserve https://statistika.atletika.sk/prihlasky/zoznam-prihlasok/65194 PS: : the weather forecast for tomorrow predict strong rain and cold, gonna be fun

And that's 3 Are they trying to honour Just Fontaine by scoring his amount of World Cup goals today? Apparently this is the fastest 3-0 deficit the Netherlands has had since a match against Sweden 1919

Mel/Brandie are through to the quarterfinals at the Elite16 in Tepic, Mexico after finishing first in their pool. They’ll play the winner of Cannon/Sponcil (USA) v. Menegatti/Gottardi (ITA) on Saturday at 1pm PST/4pm EST. Pavan/Bukovec advance to the round of 12, after finishing third in their pool. They’ll play Clancy/Mariafe later today at 7pm PST/10pm EST.

Pat & Mat couldn't have done it better. leads 2-0 after THREE minutes!

First Poland squad from Santos. Linetty & Bielik as DM with Krychowiak not called up and Moder still injured. Also random Czechoslovakian cartoon trivia on social media

Sol Fainberg suddenly decided to retire. gymnastics back to ground zero 🤡 tons of young talents from amateur sports abruptly retiring here in the last few years.

In Poland the mandatory retirement age is 65 for men and 60 for women. When Civic Platform raised the retirement age to 67 & 65 they were swiftly voted out of power at the next elections Law & Justice lowered the retirement age down to the previous/current mark.

I know, good for them. This is rather political issue but its good to know that they entered Kingdom Yugoslavia voluntarilly. No one forced them to unify.

The only thing that annoys me is that certain people use this as a spread of victory of their political agenda. Well, it can't be helped, this step was just necessary.

Marchand killing it in NCAAs. Phelps record in the 400 IM will fall this year at this pace.

It's honestly scary how many people don't have a strong position against Belarus and Russia entering sport competitions. If they managed to take over Ukraine, then the Baltics would've probably been swallowed too and their friends in the East would've probably started a crusade on their neighbouring country. We would be in an all-out war and sports would be the last thing on our minds Not letting them compete is the least we can do, when Ukraine is keeping the world safe.

Well, Kostyuk couldn't handle Potapova at all. Played a terrible match and lost 1-6 3-6 Handshake ignored like expected.

as an old proverb here says: more people can fit in an East German Trabant than we have in the stadium today

Hopefully it will remove the biggest problem, which was that there was a suspicion that certain federations were searching these individuals out as a policy.

World Athletics reaches a strong position on protecting women’s athletics. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athletics/65051900

Ah yes, then there is a loser bracket iirc from previous years to determine the last few spots. Of Note +80 and +67 have only 10 quotas each.

Mesut Ozil officially retires from football at age of 34

Amazing results for Brazil in the 5 hoops, with a 35.000 and a 3rd place in qualification ahead Italy, Bulgaria and Ukraine (!!!) @thiago_simoes

23 nations qualified in taekwndo, including and each qualifying 2 athletes! and did not qualify any athletes, and should receive one wildcard each, which will leave 4 wild cards open. I suspect one of those will go to Talisca Reis, defending silver medalist and second seed at the qualifiers, who missed out on qualification. This is also the first time since qualification began (from 2011), fails to qualify a full team.

Italia won't screw this qualification right, RIGHT ?
