Dear Lord, 6 pages or so overnight. Just before going to read everything: it's someone sucking Trump's dick vs someone who doesn't? Because if so, I can save myself the time of reading that  

Wrong anthem chapter 26643186
 
 
Moscow, Russia.
 
During the Ice Hockey Euro Hockey Tour match in Moscow the Russians played the wrong anthem for . For some reason they decided to play them the anthem, thankfully at least not the Potassium exporters one but the correct Kazahstans anthem.
 
funny enough, they didn´t found the right one so the fas had to sing it acapella

Story on Brazil losing their dressage team
 
 
It's like I suspected all along. What a bunch of amateurs! Brazil had a long tradition of hosting 3* events, and this year they for whatever reason downgraded them to 2* events. It's the purest form of ignorance.

I heard that. Give it, now.

I'm not from South America, but I can tell you the following are quite good:
 
 Bandeja Paisa
 Ceviche & Lomo Saltado
 Churrasco
 Chivito
 Asado, Milanesa & Cordero al Palo
 Chorrillana

First Day quotas go to Australia, with Shixin LI winning men's 3m springboard and Nikita Hains winning women's 10m platform.

Oceania Championships will be live streamed.
 
Day 1
 

 
Day 2
 

For anyone interested, here's what my prediction model suggests on medal chances for each event in athletics. I may have to change to a hybrid model for long distance (5000m, 10000m, walks and marathon) events as quite often the pace/strategy is different in each race. The low number of competitions for some athletes caused a couple of weird results so hopefully they continue to compete in 2020. Below are the athletes with a greater than 50% chance at winning the gold medal in an event.
 
Caster Semenya - Women's 800m - 99.21%
Katarina Johnson-Thompson - Women's Heptathlon - 81.91%
Daniel Stahl - Men's Discus Throw - 79.45%
Kenenisa Bekele - Men's Marathon - 74.30%
Yulimar Rojas - Women's Triple Jump - 69.93%
Shaunae Miller-Uibo - Women's 400m - 69.11%
United States - Men's 4x400m Relay - 64.21%
Pawel Fajdek - Men's Hammer Throw - 62.18%
United States - Women's 4x400m Relay - 57.65%
Will Claye - Men's Triple Jump - 55.80%
Malaika Mohambo - Women's Long Jump - 55.50%
Brigid Kosgei - Women's Marathon - 52.18%
Shaunae Miller-Uibo - Women's 200m - 51.51%
Karsten Warholm - Men's 400m Hurdles - 50.75%
 

Time to smash those bulbs!

Apparently one sick man just killed 6 peoples in a hospital in Ostrava, Czech Republic He entered the waiting room of the Surgical department and started shooting to the patients sitting around, then ran away...

Summing up the chances of each surfer in Pipeline.
 
 
 
Michel Bourez and Joan Duru are going to decide the last french quota. Duru needs to win the competition. There is no other way for him.
If Bourez finishes on 9th or better, Duru is automatically out.
 

 
Up this moment, John John Florence has the last American quota in his hands. If he finishes the event in 3rd or better, he'll get this officialy.
 
Kelly Slater can grab this quota:
 
if he wins the competition, and Florence finishes 5th or worse
if he finishes on 2nd place, and Florence finishes 9th or worse
if he finishes on 3rd place, and Florence finishes 17th or worse
if he finishes 5th place, and Florence finishes on 33rd
  Seth Moniz also has a small chance to get it. He needs at least the third place and bad results from Kelly and Florence to have a chance to qualify.     the fight fot the title will be, likely, between the Brazilians, and the Olympic quotas as well. The pontuation difference is
very small, because of that only one heat can make a huge change in their positions. So, Basically:   Ítalo has to finish the event on the same position, or better, than Medina or Toledo to qualify. Medina needs to finish the competition on the same position, or better, than Toledo Toledo needs to finish the competition in a better position than Ítalo and/or Medina(his first contender to the Olympic quota)   There are other possibilities, but we need to wait the waves, to check it up.
  The most complex competition for Olympic quotas. Six surfers for two spots. Owen Wright has a good pontuation, with 5.000 points ahead of Julian Wilson, the second Australian surfer in the ranking. He's in a comfortable position for his quota. As for the other five surfers, the situation is similar to the Brazilians, one heat can change everything.

South Africa performed well here, but I still think Romania will move up.

that someone is caight for doping only show you cant afford the best doctors or that your doctorn turned on you or ypur doctors is bad.

I was bored so I tried to see if I can come up with a better system for predicting medals. Places like GraceNote essentially take the top three contenders and give them gold, silver and bronze. That tends to cause situations where a nation with a 50% chance to win say 12 events would be predicted to win 12 medals, but in reality they would only win six. Usually this is masked by the overall medal count, but it becomes apparent if you look at the details for individual sports.
 
Currently my model is quite early in development, it doesn't take into account the maximum athletes per nation in a specific event or the chances of an athlete to fail (DNS/DSQ/DNF etc). It also only currently works for events where you can obtain a score/time/measurement (placing/head to head events will have to wait).
 
Here's a sample of the men's 100m (top 5) that I was using as my test data.
 
Men's 100m
Gold
- 76.4%
- 17.8%
- 1.9%
- 1.5%
- 0.9%
 
Silver
- 60.6%
- 17.8%
- 5.8%
- 4.4%
- 4.2%
 
Bronze
- 46.0%
- 14.7%
- 9.9%
- 7.7%
- 6.3%
 
 
As mentioned above, the United States is currently a bit inflated due to more than three athletes contributing to its chances (removing them manually and redistributing it would give them 73.3%, 53.5% and 38.6% chances respectively).

IOC changed Olympic parade order, with future host nations entering right before the current host, how stupid is that.

Greatest announcement in the history of the IOC!

This team quota and the one from North America are a complete joke... there should be a single team quota for the winner of the PanAm Games and no team quota at all for Oceania.

Entries for the Oceania team qualifier:
 
Men -
Women -
 
Australian women are up against an almighty opponent...

Stefan Ritter (only 21) has retired. He is a former world junior champion, but suffered a huge accident last year (brain injury) and decided to end his career in the interest of his long term health.
