    The change of format is really baffling.
  2. NearPup
    has really good taste when it comes to selecting which World Cup to boycott tbh.

    That’s more an acknowledgment that the gender of the coxwain doesn’t matter than anything else. But ya, in Tokyo for the first time two men ( Caleb Shepherd and Zhang Dechang) actually won medals in women’s events, which is def an interesting piece of trivia.

    That seems like a pretty important step for the long term survival of artistic swimming as an Olympic sport given agenda 2020 tbh. Wouldn‘t be surprised if in a decade or two it becomes a 50/50 split.

    has a good chance to get the quota eventually, this event is a lower priority than the 2024 Olympic qualifiers series. So as long as gets two of the six quotas on offer it will get redistributed.

    TBH I’d argue that in short track winning the 4Cs is more impressive than winning the Europeans. Like sure it‘s just but that’s, what, two of the three best countries on both the men’s and women’s side and consistently four of the eight best countries in both genders?

    It’s because Europe already had a continental championship and there isn’t enough depth to justify a standalone North American or Asian championship. The Four Continents is basically the continental championship for everybody else. Curling and all skating sports have two “continental” championships like this, one for Europe and the other for the rest of the world.

    The Liu brothers were born and raised in Hungary and had significant Hungarian ancestry so…

    John-Henry Krueger will also no longer compete for Hungary.

    Christine de Bruin, Bobsleigh athlete and Beijing 2022 bronze medalist in the monobob, received a three year suspension for using an anabolic agent. She has waived her right to an appeal and admitted to the violation. This doping violation does not affect her Olympic results. Her career is now effectively over.

    Ya I’m… going to refrain from commenting about the scoring, beyond saying that the top 2 is obviously correct.

    Congrats to Andrade, that was a very well deserved title.
  14. NearPup
    What a historic result by . Obviously took a lot of luck, but still.
  15. NearPup
    Great battle for second place, with it coming down to 0.001s.
  16. NearPup
    That would actually be funny if not for the injuries he caused.

    Based on initial reports it appears Nancy Pelosi’s husband got severely beaten in what was an assassination attempt on the House speaker. Cool, cool. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-63430150.amp

    Eh, I like Breaking as a spectator event so will def be watching even though I don’t believe it should be in the Olympics.
  19. NearPup
    Let compete you cowards! ( :P )
  20. NearPup
    It would almost certainly be Russian athletes that just don't reside in Russia.
  21. NearPup
    You just want Spa to host the Dutch GP don’t you?
  22. NearPup
    Badminton, Tennis and Table Tennis all awarded two bronze medals in 1992 (and also in 1988 for Tennis).
  23. NearPup
    I am, once again, asking why the heck there are two bronze medals in these mixed shooting team events.
  24. NearPup
    Gotta love this format.
  25. NearPup
    Pretty sure he’s from Yugoslavia. It’s easy to confuse those folks with the Czechoslovakians.
