    Says the fan of Kramer's robotic technique...

    Lol @ Belgium winning two medals. They had much better prospects going into Sochi and yet they failed.
  3. dcro
    There are more races, but a lot have been cancelled or moved, basically all of the races from this post. Except Turkey and Iceland (for now).

    Looks like Kaukenas is again planning to win a medal in this event.

    Bosnia cancelled, Serbia cancelled, Lebanon cancelled... This is just horrible for all those seeking qualification. I wonder if FIS will invite as wild cards, like they did with in 2014 (alpine skiing though)... This time it would be very much justified.

    Spain is not high enough on the additional allocation list to have a chance, so looks like they are planning to trade women's quota for the second men's quota. It was possible to do that in 2014. I wonder if they'll still allow that though. Because everyone in 2014 traded women for men, and not the other way around.

    He would need 0+0 shooting in one of the remaining sprints. He has the ski speed to pull it off, but shooting is his nemesis. Last weekend he had 0+2, which was his best shooting of the season. It's possible however that even 0+0 wouldn't be enough. And no, there is nobody left that we didn't mention who could potentially move up through reallocation.

    Yeah, don't forget that skier defeated Hirsher in the parallel event! It's a wild card event.

    Turning luck for our bobsled/luge turned me into a bit of an optimist. They changed the qualification, after some complaint I assume. Looking at it, qualification system doesn't actually say at any point that a nation needs 2+ A standard athletes to be able to have more than 1 quota in the respective gender, which means additional quota was given to Croatia, Iceland and Latvia. Malec is well inside top 300 in sprint, so there is no fear of losing it.

    Four-men is indeed in... Two-men not yet, but everything is in their hands. Obratov is not confirmed yet also, however Switzerland will select their team next week and it is expected that they'll use only 1/2 women's quotas, which would effectively give the unused spot to Obratov. In XC we'll have Vedrana Malec and Gabrijela Skender among women, and Edi Dadić among men. Krešimir Crnković may get in too as the second man. It's not a comfortable situation for Crnković, he may go in both XC and biathlon, but he also may not go at all!

    I doubt she'll better 3 golds + 1 silver.

    Commentator suggested that the others should just lock Shiffrin in a hotel room and throw away the key. In his usual toneless voice, making it sound psychopathic.
  13. dcro
    Who will lose first, Shiffrin or Hirscher?
  14. dcro
    He actually raised his voice by about 2 decibels when Truppe took the lead!
  15. dcro
    Yes, there should be. I nije loš.
  16. dcro
    This commentator I'm currently listening to is just... Literally like a robot. Doesn't have any emotion in his voice, always talks in a same tone, always says the basic necessary stuff, nothing more nothing less.

    Sadly no, she got injured in the worst possible moment. It's a shame as they would really have a chance, especially since North Korea eventually declined their quota. They are scheduled to make a comeback at Euros this month, so at least not the whole season is lost. 9th on the reserve list. Looks very unlikely.
  18. dcro
    There will be at least 3 in XC skiing in fact (1 M + 2 W), plus an outside chance for the second men's spot. Alpine skiing team will also most likely get 1-2 additional quotas. Even in biathlon it's not over, as Crnković will have one last effort this week (currently he is just outside of qualification). So it's going to be 14-17 athletes, which makes an unexpectedly big delegation.
  19. dcro
    How are they going to decide about the second men's quota? Some internal standards?

    Puerto Rican male skeleton racer managed to be 10+ seconds slower than Nigerian female athlete in all of the training runs in Lake Placid.

    Great news for me. Not sure when ClipMyHorse started, but I feel like I've been with them since the beginnings (when they only covered German competitions).
  23. dcro
    Cool, looks like threatening everyone with nuclear weapon gives you free quotas. I bet they'll be allowed to enter as many athletes at they want.
  24. dcro
    I found this gen. Enjoy. I so wish Winter Olympics return to their rightful place... Meaning any town with actual snow.
  25. dcro
    Yeah, we need to get to Chamonix. Right now.
