LDOG

The team has great guards but 0 presence in the paint because we have only one good tall guy, so if they aren't scoring 3s like crazy we can't beat any elite team. That's why I said "depends on the day".

Little chance in both. Depends on the day, but I wouldn't bet money in either.

I don't want to talk about results and particular players so, to sum up in one sentence: IRL because they aren't good enough, GB too much youth and not as much talent as in the past.

I don't like to give 1,2,3 that much but I can give advice on these... Hockey M - BEL clear medalist, then you have 3 teams (AUS, NED, GER) probably going for the others. Then IND is my personal dark horse. GB and ARG with minimal chance. Others have no chance IMO. Hockey W - NED clear medalist and likely gold (but not as sure as, for example, USA in women basketball). Then IMO ARG, AUS, GER and NZL to share medals. Spain possible dark horse. I don't rate Ireland and GB, for diverse reasons. Waterpolo M - I always think SRB is favorite but this time is big toss up between 5-6 teams (SRB + ITA, ESP and whoever come out of OQT alive). Waterpolo W - USA and ESP are CLEAR candidates for medals. Then other team between RUS, AUS and OQT 2 teams will complete.

Great channel. Few months ago he had a video of Argentina's provinces which was awesome and better than the original country video.

Most awards were cancelled. As for my opinion, I'll leave it vacant. Nobody did anything remarkable enough (for my standards). At least not in olympic sports.

I think the only pot 1/2 team Italy could possibly beat is Japan, but yes, it can't get harder than that. Same as 2019 (NZ/RSA). All in all the pools ended up pretty balanced, unlike previous editions where there was always an obvious "group of death".

Rugby World Cup 2023 draw was made today: Pool A (host) Americas 1 Africa 1 Pool B Asia/Pacific Europe 2 Pool C Europe 1 World qualifier Pool D Oceania Americas 2

Honestly the only top team I have doubts to qualify in first place is the Netherlands. All the others should be easy. Even the most vulnerable pot 1 teams like Denmark or Croatia got weak or poorly managed opponents.

I love the "rats the size of cats" article displayed as one the most important news.

I'm not a super big fan of him but watching his best games and goals always brings me joy. The last goat from the good times of football.

Don't tell me Ireland won't go to pot 2 because they couldn't beat Bulgaria at home

I didn't want to comment before to not bring negativity to a happy contest but... despite serbian song was also my favorite it's sad to see that a non-anglophone country has to bring a song with irish music and english lyrics to win. To my personal taste this was the lowest quality contest to this day. Also sad to see old-ish songs still tend to be very underappreciated in the open contest which is supposed to be for them. As I always say: You're a bunch of teenagers with awful taste. Go listen One Direction or something

Serbia Another failure.

You're pro China and pro trump at the same time
