  1. This is what I dont get. If criquet is going to be held 4.000 KM away from the Olympic Village, why reduce the tournament into a 6 team event? I get the reduced quotas for LA, but having a 10 team event in New York should be no problem. They should take advantage of having multiple host cities to manage athletes numbers better. Same thing for Softball, that is going to be host in another big city far away from LA....
  2. Nordic Combined isnt a big loss. A widely umpopular sport consisting of mixing more popular sports that doesnt really hook anyone. I rather had his quotas go to SkiMo or Cyclocross, to be completely honest
  3. I'm pretty sure that the only purpose for UCI to created Snowbike Events was to get in the Winter Olympics And considering next winter Olympics are in France, David Lappartient is president of both UCI and french NOC and IOC candidate..... I think it's a done deal.
  4. And watching Artistic Swimming or Ice Dancing you can get impressed with the choreo and the artistic elements... Im just still trying to understand Kata. All seemed the same, all doing the same... why someone won? Cause they shouted more? It was veeeery weird Not that Kumite was any better. I failed to understand that too. Karate had it chance and it fumbled the bag pretty hard. Almost as hard as Breaking.
  5. Athletics probably tried with Cross Country; Handball for sure proposed Beach Handball, Gymnastics probably tried with Tumbling and Acrobatic, Swimming with High Diving and Archery with Compound
  6. - I would love for a Mountain Running event in the Mountain Bike course. - Freestyle 1500m series are long and boring. I would remove the event and change it to a Open Waters short event, even maybe a relay? 4x200 should be a direct final with the best 8 teams. - Mixed duet in Artistic Swimming should be in LA. And also Men's Rhytmic Gymnastics is so needed. Same for Women's Grecorroman. If sports can't have parity can't be in the olympics, that's my take. - I wouldn't be mad if they changed Boxing for Kickboxing. - Cricket and Baseball/Softball should be a 10 team tournament at least, and part of the core programme in the Olympics. - Karate was the most boring event in Tokyo, is good out of the Olympic Programme. If another contact sport is wanted, Wushu is the correct option. - I don't mind each host selecting some events, but to an extent. Maybe just events, and not whole sports? IDK. I live with fear of Brisbane choosing Netball and that weird version of Rugby only them play. - Men's football should be down to 12 teams. - I want that Sailing Off-Shore event they wanted for Paris back. Find a way to work around it, but it sounded amazing. - I'm okay with Ligthweight-Rowing dissapearing. But they shound change it for Coastal Rowing instead. - I want a long distance Canoe/Kayak event. - 4x400 mixed in Athletics doesnt work. I would rather it change for a Medley Distance Relay or something among the lines. Also, Women's 400 Hurdles need higher hurdles, they are to low and it isnt a challenge for athletes anymore. It's just basically 400m 2.0. - Out with Equestrian. It's 2024, no need to put animals through it. And why is the best event (cross country race) not an individual event? That's all that I can think about.
  7. 4 x 200 needs to lose the semifinals. There arent enough strong teams for that. Make a direct final and that's it.
  8. 50km didn't have half the entertainment this relay offers AND I WILL DIE ON THAT HILL. Also, the level in 50km was mediocre at best... Marc Tur almost being an olympic medallist in Tokio20 was a joke lmao
  9. Damn, seeing her crying like that broke me
  10. Martin Dockx is out in veterinary round1, he wont try the second one. He withdrawal. His place would be taken by alternate Claudio Castilla and his horse.
  11. And in men's -50kg one of is going to win a medal when there are like 10 boxers that are better than any of them It's a joke honestly, even if my country gets a medal, this draw is a shame
  12. Surprisingly, a athlete is the alternate for Murray. Robin Haase will play singles https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/results/tennis/men-s-singles/r64-002300-- Not in my bingo card the Netherlands letting a doubles only layer play in singles when he has no chances.
  13. According to the Olympics web, the Alternate for Murray would be UZAMUR ANGZALL Lioesa, a tennis player google sais it doesnt exist https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/results/tennis/men-s-singles/r64-002300--
  14. He got Djokovick in first round of singles, it's not going to be a long match for him
  15. Daniela Terol, who was first alternate is going to be a last minute replacement for someone who cant compete
  16. So the candidates are: Ebden / Peers Gillé / Vliegen Pavic / Matic Pavlásek P. Tsitsipas Bopanna / Balaji Nedovyesov Cabral And a bunch of guys, but knowing their federation... And NONE of them has a singles ranking ijbol
  17. Well thats a terrible desing, not intuitive at all Even the Mediterrean Games had it. Is a must for me
  18. I remember from former result pages for multisport events how some of them have the "live events" that where in set at that time in a corner in the page. It was pretty usefull to see what events where actually at play at that moment. Isn't going to be in Paris? I'm already missing it and its only day -2
