  1. There is hardly a day in Ottawa where you can’t find a few dozen Falun Gong protestors, yet Western media doesn’t give them any coverage (for good reasons).
  2. Hey now, he’s the Silver Slovak now :P (This will never stop being funny to me)
  3. Crans-Montana will host the 2027 world championships.
  4. Ya but the IOC added the youthful, urban and gender equal sport of golf to increase 's medal output.
  5. Canoeing and Sailing have the advantage of still being Olympic sports until at least 2028, a luxury Modern Pentathlon wishes it had. I think both Canoeing and Sailing are in grave danger of having the size of their program significantly downsized but I think both sports will remain in some form long term.
  6. I feel it was already pretty dead once the IOC unceremoniously removed it from the list of core sports. Does anyone really think LA 2028 or Brisbane 2032 organizers are going to go to bat to make Modern Pentathlon one of their additional sport? It's undeniably the Summer Olympic sport that provides the least bang for the buck for the IOC, and more than any other Summer sport (and arguably *any* sport other than the sliding sports) it's entirely dependent on the Olympics for it's survival.
  7. Won't and be relegated anyway? There are already 16 teams set for next year without them.
  8. Every American cable news network does clickbait and garbage opinion shows. CNN, Fox News and MSNBC also all have a serious hard news department that employs really good journalists, but you wouldn't know it from scanning their website's homepage or from listening to their network most of the day.
  9. You may be the member of this forum most likely to win an Olympic gold medal one day :P
  10. Maybe Olympic boxing should use televoting?
  11. Shame on Putin for ruining this contest (also all the other stuff).
  12. The max possible number of televoter points is 480... lol. They averaged higher than second place across all of Europe.
  13. lol - 103 jury votes, 3 public votes, 123 jury votes, 2 public votes. Ooooof.
  14. Ya, the low number of jury votes they got is quite shocking.
  15. got zero points from the public, well deserved.
  16. with only one point from the jury is just baffling.
  17. and are being absolutely robbed by these juries so far.
  18. jury gave TEN points to ? Excuse me what?
  19. ...does that singer have a butt plug hanging from a chain from his pants?
  20. My favourite is obviously . Would also be pretty happy to see , or win. Or just for the sheer chaos. Obviously will win, I though their song was fine (top 10) but it's definitively not my favourite.
  21. Hopefully they get at least one 12 from someone. Won't win but pretty good song. The performance is insane and I kind of love it.
  22. It should certainly be the end of the IBA.
