    As in every year, people suddenly wake up & start thinking, "Hey, what bloody channel is the Diamond League on in {insert name of your country} this year?" Here's the list. https://www.worldathletics.org/competitions/diamond-league/news/how-follow-watch-diamond-league-2022 is YouTube streaming, btw.

    Were you the guy wearing the Borat mankini?

    It’s a safety measure. If they don’t all get the same time, then all the main contendors would be fighting to get to the front. However, let’s say it takes 15 seconds for 150 riders to cross the line & there is then a 2-second gap to Rider 151. He then gets a time 17 seconds behind the others!

    Thomas Bach (Olympic Champion, Fencing, 1976) shows he’s a more of a desk man than a fencer these days. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/othersports/article-10792299/Moment-International-Olympic-Committee-boss-takes-heavy-tumble.html

    There are grass markets in cities all over the world. It is where you buy & sell live cows, horses etc. So yeah, 18th Century probably.

    Well, that’s what I like about the Kenyans, they keep trying in events even where they have no history. And sometimes they turn up athletes like Yego & Omanyala, so it works out.

    I live here! My flat is the one with the dirty windows. But it’s paid for!

    Stadium goes crazy as Omanyala wins the 100m! 9.85!

    Injured! Celebrating the new spelling of their name by beefing up their middle distance running squad with some transfers. Luckily, no name changes.

    How many sports in the world are there where & are the two main contenders?
  15. Grassmarket
    Grand Tour Cycling is not about one prize: there are maybe 30-40 different prizes in a three week race.

    Two good televised (or streamed) meets this weekend from Nairobi & Tokyo, but lots of complications about what’s on where. https://www.worldathletics.org/competitions/world-athletics-continental-tour/news/how-follow-watch-continental-tour-gold-2022

    Also known for finding the best-looking women in any crowd, even nuns.

    Feel sorry for the athletes, but this is just hopeless. Should have tried to rearrange at least a few sports months ago, but didn’t want to annoy .

    Phillipe Gilbert turns the clock back on the third stage of the six stages of the Four Days of Dunkirk - wins a typical climbing sprint.

    All teams now named. https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/giro-d-italia/2022/startlist/startlist
  21. Grassmarket
    Nacer Bouhani is not in the 4 Days of Dunkirk this year, so Sam Welsford steps up and challenges his crown as the biggest idiot in World sprinting, gets relegated & probably should have a time penalty that would take him back several years.

    Certainly this is the way most decisions are made in politics, business, universities etc nowadays. Small cabal decides it wants to change something. Pretends there is a crisis. Launches a “period of discussion.” No conclusions are reached because everyone disagrees with each other Small cabal goes ahead & does what it always wanted to do.

    Quick Step team named. Includes Mark Cavendish, which makes him unlikely for the Tour, barring accidents. Bike Exchange also named: Simon Yates will lead, https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cycling/61293957

    Modern Pentathletes mutiny against the moronic leadership of MP, appeal to Thomas Bach (Gold Medal, Fencing, Montreal 1976) & the rest of the IOC, who never won a gold medal. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/modern-pentathlon/61296363

    Sam Bennett gets his big comeback win in the Eschborn-Frankfurt up against a respectable selection of the big sprint names.
