Scotland is not an independent country. They have less autonomy than an American state or a Canadian province. They have devolved powers, but they can be taken away at will by Parliament. The confusion is that Scotland (like Wales, England and Northern Ireland) is a country within the context of the United Kingdom, but that’s just what the UK calls it’s top level subdivision. It isn’t a country in the sense of being an independent nation.

You know what, I'm would be super okay with snow volleyball, cyclocross and cross country running being added to the winter games. They don't require any permanent venues and they would open up the winter Olympics to regions who aren't traditionally very involved in them. -
They should be encouraged to skip stages when they may have COVID, not punished for it.
-
I really think they need to modify Olympic qualification, too. The current system isn't particularly fair given COVID.
-
TBH I find this even more impressive that the game against New Zealand. Not because the result itself is that impressive, but rather because they came back just a week later and fought extremely well. Argentina has a real shot of winning this tournament now.

The second run for the women was a ridiculous splatterfest, everyone either crashed, DNSed or aborted their run.
-
Georgia has certified it's results, after the hand recount was completed. Biden wins the state.
-
Nice to see two Canadians qualify. Going to enjoy it because I doubt it will be happening super often xD Soukup got out of qualifying in a world cup for only the second time in his career. Solid job from Boyd-Clowes, too.

That post didn't age well :P

I knew it, Hugo Chavez rigged the election for his close ally Joe Biden. Even from the grave Chavez delivers, what a guy. I bet George Soros is involved to. Once all is said and done Trump will win well over 500 LEGAL electoral vote.
-
They are just embarrassing themselves at this point.

Thiem reportedly now plans to compete in the 2021 Olympics. https://olympics.nbcsports.com/2020/11/14/dominic-thiem-olympics-tennis/

LA has a big Armenian community, the LA Times is going to have that bias.
-
I had faith :P He’s always been quite good in the wet.
-
The qualifying session in was pretty dang good. Stroll finally has his first pole.
-
Took a while but we got to the obvious outcome. I was told by some that Biden couldn't win :P
-
I’m old enough to remember when Harris seemed like a good bet to be the next president. Though I guess that did sort of turn out to be correct.
-
He lived by the upper Midwest in 2016 and he dies by the upper Midwest in 2020.
-
At this point I would be extremely surprised with any other outcome than Biden 306 - Trump 232. Pennsylvania and Nevada look done. Arizona and Georgia both seem to favour Biden, too. I don't think Trump will have any issues winning North Carolina or Alaska.
-
AP called Wisconsin for Biden. If he holds on to Nevada and Michigan Biden will crawl across the finish line.
-
Probably not. We were well prepared for this outcome. The media spent a lot of time explaining to people what states would have red and blue mirages, i.e. states that would appear to go for Biden (Ohio, Florida, North Carolina) or Trump (Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania) before tightening later on.
-
I definitively would rather be Biden than Trump right now, even though it looks like Biden will barely crawl across the finish line. Not very unlike Trump in 2016, really.
-
Biden is now ahead in Wisconsin by 11,000 votes.
-
I am confused about the results.
-
I mean given 100,000,000 people voted already (yours truly included) it’s probably already been mostly decided. I think some people on here will be pretty confused by the results tbh.
