  1. World Champs & Olympics are always a big chance for the small nations because of the restricted numbers for the giants. But it’s one thing to have a chance, another to take it.
  2. Curling Junior World Championships are on this week, from Krasnoyarsk. Russia. Here’s the live schedule https://worldcurling.org/2020/02/broadcast-wjcc2020/ Showing on the World Curling Federation’s YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/user/WorldCurlingTV And if you can get the BBC, coverage of the two Scottish Championship finals today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/winter-sports/51401156
  3. It was a mess. Administrators could not budget, so they cut money from the women’s team & hardware going into the Olympics. Hopeless. Also there was a big cultural collision between the pilots - all from the military - and the pushers, all unsuccessful sprinters. Things are going much better this year with 100% military teams.
  4. Thing is, as we in Britain have shown in skeleton, nations that do not have a track can sometimes over-perform at the Olympics, because they are more used to learning unfamiliar tracks.
  5. I think the whole Romanian bob programme is funded by one guy, so he can spend his money as he likes, I suppise.
  6. Non-geoblocked Berlin meet on now. https://www.rbb-online.de/rbbsport/themen/livestream-leichtathletik-istaf-indoor-2020.html Berlino is there! All field events & 60m runs - no 200m track! Also Glasgow tomorrow afternoon, live on the BBC if you can get it. https://www.worldathletics.org/competitions/world-athletics-indoor-tour/news/indoor-tour-2020-glasgow-duplantis-fraser-pry
  7. Wow, Romania ‘s Andrea Grecu gets a Silver medal in the Women’s Bob in Sigulda. OK, not a full field but a great achievement! I believe the Romanians used to get wins in the 1930s & even the 1960s, but I’m sure that’s their first for a good while.
  8. Nobody can go home till Abe finishes. Wait no, someone else. Good race to start the solo races!
  9. Geez, will Eckhoff even make the 60?
  10. Holds on for third!
  11. Mascots going into action in the crowds, a good sign for Roeiesland.
  12. Delighted to be wrong! Nooooo, time is slowwwww
  13. Roeisland going to have a long nervous afternoon in the comfy chair now.
  14. You just know the standing will be bad for Dunklee...
  15. Fialkova big early lead. Eckhoff awful second shoot. Aita Gasparin 0 0, looks good at this point.
  16. Eckhoff early fail...
  17. Good for Minsk, always lots of fans at their events.
  18. Doubt Windisch would have won even with a clear shoot, JT in shark mode now.
  19. Great skill from Doro, keeping both the ski manufacturer’s name & the Red Bull can in shot at the same time.
  20. Mini-meltdown from T. Boe!
  21. Short-cut to the beer tent for .
  22. France in trouble again.
  23. German second girl couldn’t believe she had to wait so long. Lots of crying for Julia Simon.
  24. Great from Vittozi, ready for the traditional stiletto-in-the-back handover.
  25. Disaster for on first shoot, gemiddeld/moyennante.
