Here is the presentation of the course. The landscape is pretty.

"You were supposed to destroy Covids! Not join them!"

Brisbane should be also 23th July to 8th August. Good for you!

Did WADA approve that?

Basically we need B samples like in doping test. Ask polish ski jumpers at the 4 Hill Tournament.

Great effort for Kuss, big win! Jumbo-Vismar is very good shape, only they miss Roglic.

KOM seems to be the most fiercely contested of all classifications. Woods, Poels, van Aert & Quintana try to win it.

I got the Tokyo Game for PS4 few days ago. It is pretty fun, especially with friends! Sadly, it’s only for two players local. (Four online – yes you need PSN+ to play online!). As I saw some trailer, I thought the graphic style is horrible, but now I think it is fine. Not great, but also not terrible. The character editor is nice and complex and you can have lot of fun designed hilarious characters. :D (It is even better then Cyberpunk 2077 where you only change your face, but cannot edit your body.) Every event is somehow unique. Steering is done well. No event is unplayable as it used to be in some older games. Of course, it could be more sports, more events, but at some point, it would be repetitive or probably lacking quality. Unfortunately, it is lacking some kind of single campaign, you can play events and progress through rounds and gets medal, but the game feels more like collection of fun mini games to play with friends and having fun. Fortunately, it is a lot of fun. :D

As I moved to Germany, I found out that German and Polish Eurosport 1 showed different things. Not completely different, but there were some differences. Does anybody know if the on demand videos will be immediately available on Eurosport Player? I’m going to have some reasonable sleeping hours and watching a lot of on demand.

What happened there!? I could not believe that there were 29 man attracting and Ineos and UEA do not care. It makes the Tour very interesting.

Alaphilippe not as fresh as yesterday. Thomas lost 15 sec, so Carapaz number one of Ineos? Also no crash today.

At the beginning of 2020 as Coivd was only Asia-thing some politician form London said they could take care of Tokyo Olympic Games. 1. London 2. Los Angeles 3. Sydney They have stuff needed there also probably Paris, Beijing, Tokyo. And other big cities of USA. I somehow like the idea of permanent Olympic Venue, so Greece as whole.

Most overrated Olympic Medallist of Germany is clearly Thomas Bach - Foil, team gold medallist from Montreal, he has even not take a part in individual competition. Nevertheless, somehow he is still very relevant in the news.

Here the whole story behind the Podium: https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/en/news/50-days-to-go-podium-theme-music-and-other-key-features-unveiled In addition, the theme music and costumes reveal. Podiums are made from recycled material etc. Costumes should combine japan traditions with western formal style. Well... it looks a little like hospitals’ personal to me.

Is still a part of or i missed some important news?

1) I have a lot of favorite events. And sports. If only three than: men's road race, decathlon, men's volleyball. 2) and all "small nations". 3) I some how move form being fanatic about single athlets. But my favorite of all time will be probably: - Tomasz Majewski - the coolest man ever - Adam Małysz - from whom all my sports factination started

As far I can see, nobody here posted this beautiful promo video from FranceTV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjLfqX-gXZ0&ab_channel=MullenLoweFrance

I don't like combat sports, so all Boxing, Wrestling, Karate and co. could go. Artistic sports have some problems with judging and understanding who and why was winnig. However, I enjoyed watching e.g. figure skating and gymnastics with my girlfriend, so maybe there is a chance to make it more transparent. Then there are sports that have problems to attract the best for the games (U23 Football, obviously - golf and baseball). So, if i were removing something than something from these lists. Olympics are also about diversity in sports and interest and I perfectly fine with having sports, which are fundamentally different from others and attract other/ new people to Olympics. Even I do not like or understand it. I do not have to follow all the sports of the program.

For every sport there is a specific age limit dependig what the sport federation likes. From https://assets.fis-ski.com/image/upload/v1588059183/fis-prod/assets/Snowboard_V1.1.pdf - Snowboard Qaulification Rules: "All athletes participating in the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022 must be born before 1 January 2007 in accordance with Article 2014.6: International Snowboard / Freestyle Ski /Freeski Competition Rules (ICR)." So bascially she could not participate.

How it was in Lahti? - the one who is behind responsible for overtaking, so Klaebo sould be careful.

One more thought about men’s relay yesterday. It was the longest one (1h52m) since while. Was very interesting to watch, also. Even the results were as expected. Still great effort for Lapierre and Brazil team nice to see them! Plan for Today: let Johaug go and make race for silver (we don't need TV coverage of single running Johaug, so don't show her anymore )

Nooo... it's another fluke!

Another relay bronze for France ! They are relay-nation per excellence! Bolshunov just coundn't atack on the hill, so Klebo did Klebo-thing...

There are two standing races now!

Ivo MVP!
