  1. True, but nobody recognizes the Faroe Islands as independent. The UN (and USA) technically recognizes Niue. Re. Free association isn’t Niue basically the same like Palau/Marshall Islands/Micronesia except with no separate citizenship?
  2. The United States has officially recognized Niue as a country. Could they join the 2028 Olympics? They are already a member of five federations (Judo, Rugby, Table Tennis, Weightlifting, Wrestling). Niue and the Cook Islands are uniquely classified by the UN as “non-member states”. But, all Niueans are New Zealand citizens.
  3. I think these are all very exciting choices. With cricket and football, it’s the first time the top 10 most viewed global sports will all be at the Olympics (in some form). It’ll be unprecedented. And removing breakdancing was the right call. I can’t help but think about how confusing cricket will be to everyone in the Czech Republic 😋 I don’t even know the rules myself… I don’t like that we are getting even more discount spin-off versions of popular sports (lacrosse 6s, flag football). Hurts the prestige of the Games IMO especially since they are barely developed at a high level
  4. This also means in the ranking Slovakia will fall to 16th and so will likely have to play two rounds of Olympic qualification. Because I think the IIHF is holding spots for Russia and Belarus. These are apparently the Round 1 groups for the men (confirmed in part here and here). The UAE, ranked 39th, is the highest seed in Round 1. The top 36 seeded teams get an automatic pass to Round 2 or higher. If you remove hosts Italy and Australia, who never enters, that works out to 36 teams above UAE, which must include Russia and Belarus.
  5. A certain amount of points is only necessary for the Skiathlon and Mass Start. Top 10 is enough for the individual. Good luck!
  6. I don't think I'll be watching these Games any more. Not that they aren't fun, but it's obvious from the Opening Ceremony and today's short track that they're all about making a genocidal regime look good + pulling whatever strings possible to get them medals. There are just better things to do with my time than supporting that. Especially since I'm a child of refugees from Communism, got to have some self-respect Bye for now.
  7. Wonder what was on that clipboard the official was writing on. Probably "what's your bank account number?"
  8. My God... wishing you a safe recovery @brunamoura, I'm so sorry this happened. Know that we are all rooting for you.
  9. actually selected Josefin! No way. https://www.instagram.com/p/CY39IzBIhbY/ Apparently there is no age limit on the 'future criteria' as long as it's your first Olympics. https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/26-arig-konstakare-os-uttagen-som-framtidsnamn-inget-alderskrav
  10. Of course they choose a picture of Bruna from the Engadin horror race Nah but seriously, congratulations @brunamoura! It was a long hard journey and you really deserve it. Hope the Olympics go safely (and you get some TV time).
  11. Good for . Would have been embarrassing to not qualify a team.
  12. athlete gets 150.16 FIS points in his first ever FIS race, *the day* before the qualifying deadline. He can only do one other race tomorrow, so I think he'd have needed an average of 100 points. https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/results.html?sectorcode=AL&raceid=111122#results
  13. I remember reading a French NOC document and concluding that Bessard didn't meet the federation's requirements, so her spot would be reallocated. But now I can't find it.
  14. Both Trusova and Scherbakova had beautiful programs... but I can't help but feel the PCS is way overscored. Especially with the mistakes.
