  1. Johanna Larsson (tennis) has retired at the age of 31. She fell out ouf WTA singles Top 200 but still had a chance to play the doubles at the Olympics.
  2. Americans think their democracy is the best in the world though?
  3. But we're talking about events? The FIM Qatar Grand Prix itself isn't cancelled or postponed!
  4. Yep, Moto2 & Moto3 teams are in Qatar already because their pre-season testing happened one week after MotoGP testing. Qatar GP will go ahead only without MotoGP.
  5. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lechia It's basically the same as some German clubs using the old Prussian name Borussia. We have clubs called Lechia in Poland instead
  6. How about starting a new party then? Political parties split and form a new body all the time in the world. Why can't USA do that?
  7. Well, Poland is still called Lechistan in some countries so let's don't get overexcited by the Holland/Netherlands deal
  8. Well, in wrestling you can distinguish two styles (but not for women) but yeah, if we go purist then different weight classes are different events. Finn replaced Firefly as the dinghy class in 1952 so Elvstrom had no choice like Ainslie.
  9. Ben Ainslie and Kaori Icho must be among the six Only Oerter, Lewis and Phelps did it in the same event. Elvstrom and Ainslie in two different sailing classes (but still the same sport) and Icho in two different weight classes. That is all. Question is whether a different weight class in a combat sport is a different event? Methinks not.
  10. Is Pays-Bas correct? I always liked that version
  11. Half of the 2000/01 season was held in Anterselva They hosted three rounds in December 2000 replacing Hochfilzen, Pokljuka AND Osrblie Then in January they hosted their own scheduled round.
  12. There is no snow in this part of Europe so what did you expect? We had more rain than snow this 'winter' in Poland so I suppose Czech Republic is no different.
  13. Pete Buttigieg has pulled out of the Dems nomination race even before Super Tuesday. His inability to attract black voters was the obvious killer.
  14. I read a US political piece but that was over 10 years ago that everything Netanyahu does is fuelled by his anger over his brother's death (esp. when it comes to West Bank settlements). Ramallah, Gaza Strip and Hamas are the resident bad guys but world terrorism has moved forward a lot in the last few years to the point these guys look like complete amateurs. Car bombs and knife attacks don't mean a thing in the global terrorism picture anymore.
  15. The Thailand FIM motorcycle Grand Prix round (March 20th-22nd) has been postponed indefinitely. It's funny, the first two editions were held in October and they moved it to March this season to bounce off the virus wall.
  16. I was registered on the old forum as well and registered here on March 2, 2016 so one can say I'm here from the start. And my first post was in the Biathlon Discussion thread because obviously it's biathlon Gotta say I had my doubts when the old forum folded but it seems this community has survived the wipeout after all
  17. Yes, I'm well aware of that. Obama wanted none of Netanyahu's aggressive politics and actually didn't fold to the Jewish lobby back in the States. Netanyahu still hasn't gotten over his brother's death and he never will even after 40+ years. This is a bitter old man these days, a complete contrast to what Obama was during his term in office.
  18. It's a sport dominated by Asians from the Far East and that's the problem.
  19. Another above-par showing for me in a sport I don't really follow Picking medals for Netherlands and Germany (home advantage) actually worked Also I managed to pick a gold for F.Ganna in the pursuit (which was probably obvious for a cycling fan but not for me ).
  20. finally wins individual gold - in a non-Olympic event
  21. Because it was Trump who opened the US embassy in Jerusalem and pissed the Arabs right off. Last time I checked pissing the Arabs off is more suitable for the Jews than whether a politician is a left- or right-wing
  22. I kinda noticed I achieve better prediction results in sports I don't follow on a daily basis. I haven't watched bobsleigh & skeleton since WOG 2018 Hell, I don't watch these events outside of the Olympics in general. If luge wasn't on ES, I wouldn't have watched this either! 2nd place is waaay above my expectations. The only bigger shock would be a medal in water polo predictions
  23. Kruchinkina moves from 3rd to 1st after last shooting.
