Nah, Slovenia will lose to play with us.

The first part of the job is done, believe it or not (i certainly can't). Next stop Slovenia.

A win only for confidence, nothing more. The true match was always going to be against Serbia. France goes thru to the 1/2.

And when is that?

So, when are we expecting the next news on THE IOC - Russia case. Qualification tournaments are coming, are they banned from competing, are they allowed, are they going to boycott? What happens to the quotas they have already achieved?

That is why i never download any "official" sporting apps, because they are never useful.

I thought France would be weakened, but they completely crushed Serbia damn. It would be hard for anyone to beat them.

What's the SSV category and why are so many viechles there? . With the time zone this year, Eurosport can make the show more informative, since the results would be know when they air the shows in the evening.

France's squad? Read they have problems with injuries on key players?

Those tears Couldn't finally happen to a better man. Well deserved!

Don't say that I won't believe it until it's done.

We all want Wright, but let's be frank - it's not happening.

The constant gate changing is the most infuriating thing. Every time a jumper makes a good jump, lower the gate... Like they want to take the fun out of the competition. Everybody wants to see big jumps, not "safe" jumps. How is it fair in a direct knockout, when Lindvik does his jump from one position, then Zyla gets a lower one when it's a head-2-head competition...

The old forums results sections were a real treasure. If you were looking for something, there was a 95% chance it would be here. All the important events were updated regularly, with results, competitions, schedules, standings. For the big sports, or the ones i follow closely, like football, tennis, FIS, cycling, darts etc., there are enough places, which i have on speed-typing or in my memory, which i can use faster. But that is probably 5-10% of all sports. But for the rest, the forum was my go to site, when i wanted to see some other results or competitions. Rowing, gymnastics, shooting, fencing, table tennis, weightlifting, skeleton, speed skating, short track. I don't know these sports sites, federations, how they post their results. It would take me much more time to find them, rather than come here, go to the Rowing thread and see the most recent results sub-threads, with the results, standings, quotas etc. These things now i look on Wikipedia and pray it is updated regularly ever since we lost the old forum. Also many sports have awful sites, when it comes to regularly updated information or general usefulness for sports fans like us. I have had a real headache, when looking for stuff, which are not for the major sports. There are hundreds of sites for tennis, but try looking for weightlifting, or boxing (AIBA), for which there are 2-3 useful sites at most.. I commend the idea and if there are users who would want to do this massive work, hats off.

They are doing the challengers again.. I thought it was going to be the normal 10. Oh well, then a hundred percent she is doing a one night match.

I will be surprised if she plays another BDO tournament, after that performance in the Worlds and all the promotion she got / is for the PDC. A World Series of Darts spot is already given to her and i would say a 60-70% chance to shock and put her in the Premier League.

Don't know if there is a better resort than Toblach right now. It's always sunny, no problems with the snow, perfect conditions. I can't recall there being any problems with the starts in the last couple of years.

Having the Games in Indonesia would be awesome, but it's in no reality possible.

Not at all. Everyone is free to express themselves. It's like i said, more of a morale stand point.

Again, goes both ways. Why should children be exposed to behaviour, which is not in our culture and has not been accepted by the majority of the nation? PS. Should have been in bed already. Damn me for joining the politics thread late at night.

Of course, i was just giving an example of a possible situation. And here is another one. Why is it not acceptable to walk naked in public? Because it offends people. If there is a naked man (or woman) walking freely in Holland will they arrest him for inappropriate behaviour? He is just minding his own business. Two men kissing isn't commenly accepted and people get offended by it. The difference is there is no law against it and the cops won't come. They can kiss all they want in public, if they have no problem with the amount of scandals and cursing they would receive.

Person A has the right to moan about a thing he doesn't like, just like persons B and C can moan about what person D is doing around the corner, for example butchering meat and person B and C don't like meat and make a scandal / comment. Person D is not the one to blame for the scandal.

I second what Monzanator said on this topic. If two women are holding hands or even kissing in public, no one will care much or notice. It's a general feel, that females can be more close and touchy with each other and men frankly enjoy it. They would have to be really in your face, "look at us, we are lesbians, we have/demand rights" for other people to make a fuss. For men it's different of course. For a lack of better term, if it's a Bro thing amongst friends or a sporting celebration / play / hanging out, there is no problem if men are hugging, jumping one another, kissing on the cheek, grabbing the but But the moment it seems or feels like it's being in an erotic way, be prepared for cursing and shouting, or the very least people talking behind your back, when they want to carry with their day without a scandal.
