  1. If she no longer belongs it will sort itself out pretty quickly.
  2. With the following restrictions: * one skater / pair per event * no team event * can only qualify from the last chance qualification event
  3. You can view the nations cup ranking (which will be what most of the quotas are determined by) here: https://www.biathlonworld.com/standings?DisciplineId=NC I'm assuming the individual Olympic qualifying points list is only starting next winter.
  4. Obviously Reagan Smith is in another league in this event, but what an impressive International debut for Summer in that distance.
  5. No need to constantly bash Modern Pentathlon like that!
  6. No, Lake Placid won the bid to be the back-up host over St Moritz and Igls. I don’t believe any other track expressed interest.
  7. Lake Placid is officially the back-up venue if the Eugenio Monti track isn't finished in time. https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/winter/luge/olympics-milan-cortino-lake-placid-sliding-events-backup-dec12-1.7408565
  8. He’s also , maybe having him on the Olympic team would immunize us against an embarrassing result against them.
  9. Deanna Stellato-Dudek has just obtained her Canadian citizenship.
  10. That sucks. She deserves an Olympic gold so bad.
  11. Doesn't seem like they've gotten much better at catching a sled after a crash.
  12. Oh ya. Forget impeachment and removal, Yoon should be in jail.
  13. So… second coup attempt this week in South Korea, apparently. President Yoon is basically guaranteed to be impeached and removed from office unless the military intervenes.
  14. I’m honestly not sure. I’m assuming not either since it’s being played under NHL rules.
  15. First Best-on-Best International tournament since 2016… it deserves it’s own thread.
  16. Really no sport where the world record means less. Don't they record the athlete's bodyweight before every competition? One would think it would be trivial to re-create the world record for each new weight class retroactively.
  17. Not surprising at this point (both because there hasn't been any noise that they were back in training and because of friction between them), but Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron have officially retired.
  18. That's a really, really old rule in FIS Big Air - the two counting jumps must be of a different direction (depending on the competition, either clockwise / counterclockwise or having every variation of forward/switch or goofy/regular and clockwise/anticlockwise/straight count as a unique direction). That is what the A, B and sometimes C on the result list refer to - not which direction (sadly that's not listed), but whether the jump is a repeated direction or not.
  19. I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments. Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.
  20. This was announced a few years ago. Sprint will be classical and team sprint will be freestyle.
  21. I think the biggest problem for Australian football is how big the roster size is. Rugby League Nines might be a more realistic "out there" selection.
