Thanks to Malago that he couldn't force in IOC for this competition to be at the Olympics, instead of a team event in snowboardcross. If it were in Russia or the USA, they would add the competitions they wanted. 

Gold & silver for the italians

99%.

She wasn’t amazed like us 😅

oh, c'mon! we don't need to be like Qatar or Bahrein...we don't need to go shopping in places where there's no sign of a true connection between those people and our Country
 
one thing is trying to take advantage of all the athletes with Italian heritage grown up in other Nations, but just "buying" Russians or Africans here and there to win a couple of medals here and there, no thanks! 

According to ITG, camel racing was officially added in the 2025 Youth Asian Games

What an athlete Tove Alexandersson. Finally she can compete for olympic medals after her previous 21 world championship golds in orienteering, 10 WCH golds in ski orienteering, 1 WCH gold in sky running and 1 previous gold in skimo.

Cerioni non me lo aspettavo, poi nn si sa mai, però ora come ora, dopo la caccia fatta per riportarlo in Italia, mandarlo via così, boh

Cool start to the Worlds with a nice Italia win.  Vinatzer manages for once to stay on the track and look what happens

I think it's all about politics and the new Federation's executive board 

I don’t get why we fire trillini though, he accomplished something unexpected and came home fired

It seems to be entirely driven by time zone issues.
 
From the IOC's standpoint the whole reason to include cricket in the Olympics is to (vastly) increase the value of the TV deals from India. It isn't to grow the game in the US or w/e.

I hope the French are not so stupid to give up on Ski Mountaineering, they are the heart of this sport (together with  and ) and they also have great medal chances
 
but after they got rid of Karate to host Breakdance in Paris, I shouldn't be surprised their (senseless) decisions

Russia should be banned for 24 years because of the state doping affair between 2008 and 2014 
 
then, they should be seriously investigated for what they did in the following years
 
and only once they have paid the prize for their cheating (a true prize, I mean...not that farce of the no name/no symbol/no anthem "punishment"), they could return to action in the world of international sport 

Hosting Olympic Games isn't an honor anymore. The old fashioned bidding contests are dead. Democracies are no longer willing to spend money on the "show" unlike the Middle East gulf moguls plus China. It is what it is. Professional sports is business now and it has to invest money from somewhere to make a profit later. We can mock how NBC dictates the swimming programme with finals in the morning local time but that also falls into "authoritarian" style of organzing these Games. And it will only get worse as the big pockets will only have more influence going forward. There will come a time when Bach won't be viewed as the worst anymore because just when you think it can't get any worse, it can and probably will

no, it's that fuckin' agenda 2020 (and following), that fuckin' gender equality, the fact that they got rid of iconic events (and made some more of them just ridiculous), the senseless mixed events (most of them, at least) and the fact that they filled the schedule with an unacceptable amount of non-sports  

still, it's a discipline with very little depth at the very top of the rankings (in terms of Nations, not singles) and it also doesn't make a lot of sense to me (basically you see a lot more fails than exciting runs/tricks in a competition)
 
still definitely not a fan, but Park makes a lot more sense, at least
 
gotta be honest...I know Speedskating already is a core discipline at the Winter Olympics, but I think also the Inline Speedskating should become Olympic (in Summer) and replace the Street events
 
World Skate should make something about it!

These Paralympics have been a blast, it’s such a shame that it’s almost over 

Rogora dominate the lead and finally won her frist golden European Medal! 

Today, we will face the Germany 

I had to admit that I liked the skateboard park event, it remind me the games I used to play on my ps2

Counted it by myself, was hoping that someone out there is compiling something since the FIS probably won't until next season.
