Triplecast

Alexander Gorshkov 1976 gold medal in Ice Dancing. He was the head of the Russian Figure Skating Federation. The article suggests the stress of Valieva case might have been a factor. Russian Figure Skating Federation President Gorshkov dead at 76 (insidethegames.biz)

His father was once Polish athlete of the year?

I'll take a stab at this. For men, the shortest gold medalist I'm sure is Joseph DePietro WL 1948 gold medal in bantamweight. He was 1.40 metes tall. The tallest is Arvydas Sabonis BB 1988 then bronze 1992 for listed at 2.21 m. For Women, the tallest I'm sure is Uljana Semjonova ( nationality) BB 1976 and 1980 listed between 2.10 and 2.16. The shortest is Mariya Filatova Gymnastics 1976 and 1980, 1.36 meters tall. Filatova is also likely the lightest listed at 30 kg. For men, the heaviest gold medalist is probably Leonid Zhabotynsky 1964 and 1968 WL listed at 163 kg. The heaviest woman is Zhou Lulu 2012 WL at 133 kg. Actually, the shortest and lightest men's gold medalist may be the unknow cox of the 1900 pairs event, thought to be around 11 years old.

I watched the replay of the pass it looked in the zone, but close. Hall came close to the Jamaican anchor but didn’t appear to interfere. Anyway, they’re getting the medals now.

Or four fast gals.

Probably close to the same number of athletes. Men’s Football partially offsets the loss of baseball/softball. Hope W hockey will qualify this time.

Yes, the news wires said he told reporters it was a cramp, but his agent tells the real truth the next day. Slight injury to his quad.

He said it was a cramp, and says he's good for the relay.
