Smith leads 5-3...

Yeah, I immediately recalled Ronaldo's Coke "boycott" at Euro 2021. This is obviously pure hogwash

Good result. Price is very annoying indeed.

Wright wins 5-4.

Rydz leads 3-1 so far...

Does NZ care about anything other than rugby & maybe cricket? Poland usually tries to enter as many athletes as possible and nobody really cares whether such athlete has a shot of making Top 16 let alone a medal If he/she makes whatever A or B standard they will be selected no matter what (sometimes it completely backfires as evident by our swimming entry mishaps in the last two SOG).

Dobey was 2-0 & 3-1 sets up on Humphries and also 3-2 up in the decider before losing the last three legs in a row.

Camila Giorgi turns 30 years old today!

I have to admit I can't count as fast especially when it comes to setting-up check-outs. At 182 he should have aimed for a triple odd-number or anything but a triple 20? (since the miss at single left him a non-checkout score)?

Michael Smith wins! He escaped with D6 earlier when Clayton had match D12 set up.

Clayton missed 6 darts to be one leg away from QF

Does Callum Rydz have some Polish heritage? It's the Polish name of red pine mushroom. Some athletics fans may remember middle-distance runner Malgorzata Rydz from 20+ years ago.

Because everyone is trying to manipulate the suits. In fact the richer nations are more willing to do so. The days when Ammann caught everyone off guard with new bindings in Vancouver 2010 are kinda over. Back to the suits, now it's even forbidden to clap hands on the thighs while sitting on the gate. It was done to stretch the suits and increase its surface. Ryoyu Kobayashi wins in Oberstdorf. Only one Polish jumper in the second round (Kubacki 28th). HC Michal Dolezal will not survive this season given how bad we're doing.

It has happened. Fatih Arda Ipcioglu will get World Cup points!

Legendary Oakland Raiders HC and later TV color analyst John Madden passed away at the age of 85.

In case someone missed my pre-season martial update, Burtasova is nee Pavlova

Carl Lewis admitted to using doping and WA won't do anything about it so those DDR records will stand or else WA would also have to address American athletes. This can of worms stays closed.

FIFA annulled some of the Olympic team matches in the 60s and 70s before - even though they were played before the U-21 eligibility era. This infamously cost Kazimierz Deyna his 100 cap milestone (his 100th NT game was the 1978 World Cup game vs Argentina celebrated as such at the time). I see they found new ways to manipulate the "official" statistics even in the era where everyone is a professional football player by design. Well, Algeria can still extend their streak during Afcon next month?

Maryna Gasienica-Daniel also tested positive (no sympthoms) and will miss Lienz.

Trevon Diggs gets interception #11 on Washington's first snap of the game. Last time someone had 11 INT in a single season was 1981 (Everson Walls, also a Cowboys player).

Yes, it is Flamengo. Apparently there was a bidding war and back on Friday the news was Internacional offered more money. Today it came out Flamengo outbid them

Paulo Sousa phoned our FA chief today and informed him of wanting to take the Internacional job. The only question is how ugly this divorce will be

Cleveland Browns might be looking for a new QB next season. Baker Mayfield keeps throwing stupid INTs and the roster is too good to have this happen so often.

Some rumours in the Polish press that NT coach Paulo Sousa might sign a contract with Internacional Porto Alegre as soon as Sunday. Given the tough WC playoffs draw he is a dead man walking here since he'd be fired if/when we fail to qualify anyway.

@heywoodu Why did Charlene Sloof stop competing for Holland though?
