Poland squad for the Albania match. Four changes compared to the disaster on Friday.

The combined number of years Netanyahu has served as PM is probably the reason. He's been in power longer than some authoritarian regimes, no wonder people are tired of this guy among other things

Setting aside the Sprints debacle, the people at Dorna have also fumbled the calendar.. Why have these people put half the calendar in September - November
I don't know what genius thought, that only 3 races in April-May is good, when this is the best period. Spring-summer is the most exciting period in the motorsport season, after the long winter layouts. By September things are winding down and when October hits people are switching their interests to other things and are just waiting for the end of the season. 3 of those Asian races could have been slotted in the March-May period easily.
Well, all these Far East races can't be held in April-May since this is the monsoon period AFAIK? Japanese Grand Prix used to be held in April in the 90s and it rained literally every other year
Malaysia was either scorching hot or rain. Putting Argentina and COTA in April is actually reasonable enough. Austria used to be in the spring in the 90s but now the F1 Grand Prix isn't held in August anymore so they can't really stack up Red Bull Ring in back-to-back months? Adding a second UK race in May would make sense but it's not really happening since most UK riders are focused on Superbike racing these days.

Lots of injuries during the first weekend in Portimao. Pol Espargaro crashed into the wall in practice, Enea Bastianini suffered a broken collarbone in the sprint after Luca Marini took him out and now Marc Marquez with a total bonehead move in the GP which took out Miguel Oliveira at high speed. Let's see if he gets a penalty for that one. Should be pitlane start since that was highly dangerous.
Down in Moto3 Joel Kelso suffered a broken ankle after he crashed into the back of race winner Daniel Holgado after the finish line. He was busy taking down his tear-off visor and didn't look what was ahead of him

@BelleAt least you're not Norway
Former Stoke & Newcastle "legend" Joselu - who turns 33 on Monday - scored two goals on
NT debut as they beat
3-0
UEFA will have to create some super special rules so that Haaland could play at a major championship. Totally looks like Jari Litmanen 2.0 on steroids.

Germany in off-season mode already? Entered one Felix Hoffmann in the Team Event - who has never competed outside of the Four Hills domestic pool and one-off trip to Sapporo four years ago
-
I don't remember the exact RR results however I have an impression curling is more competitive these days? How is
looking w/o Muirhead though? I seem to recall there was a minor dust-up few years back that Muirhead got all the championship selections by default instead of some domestic prelims like they have in Canada?

Is Chen just taking a season off or he won't show up until the next OG if at all?
-
So, Sweden started 2-3 and still made the SF while Germany missed out?

If you want to see two goals (one off a throw-in
) in less than 3 minutes from kick-off here's your chance:
Apparently it's the fastest two goals conceded by Poland NT since Sweden scored two in opening six minutes back in 1964
-
Consolation goal off a corner in 87th minute. Doesn't matter.
wins 3-1. One of the worst matches from
in the last decade or maybe even XXI century
-
3-0 Czech Republic! Kuchta scores in 65th minute
Made Kiwior look like an Arsenal bench player indeed.
-
It's also a record for us as the Krejci goal after 28 seconds is the fastest goal ever conceded by Poland NT
I don't have access to Czech history books but Tomas Cvancara scoring three minutes into his NT debut could also be some record?

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.

King Charles state visit postponed due to the street riots
Can France even protect a cup of warm urine these days

More details on the

ban:
The Good News! Your doping suspension has been lifted!
The Bad News! Your war suspension is beginning!
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.

Biden is against asylum-seekers after all. So much for the liberal & progressive politics

0-0 draw vs Luxembourg. Yeah, I'd say Slovakian football is not doing great here.
Poland plays Czech Republic in Prague tomorrow so let's see how the Santos era begins

Julian Nagelsmann has been fired from Bayern Munich. Thomas Tuchel of all people is the new manager

as an old proverb here says: more people can fit in an East German Trabant than we have in the stadium today
Ah yes, Trabant jokes. Sadly I'm old enough to remember these vehicles being operational
The last one I saw moving from point A to B was 2006 IIRC

Plus as far as I remember, the Torun events are often more than excellent, in terms of organization as well as atmosphere.
It's kinda funny since Bydgoszcz has the big outdoor stadium which is basically the #1 facility for athletics in Poland (save for Chorzów for historical reasons) and Toruń has build the indoor athletics arena. Both cities are separated by like 50 km distance and they have a long-standing rivalry for exposure in the region

Meanwhile SNP has a new leader - 37-year old Humza Yousaf. Guess the Scottish nationalism will go into hibernation now unless Muslims are suddenly a majority up there?
