Agger

I'm seeing comments about 2 possible penalties for Sweden due to hands.

I'm sadly not able to watch the match, but I'm reading about 3 potential penalty kicks. What do people watching think?

Except for the disrespect during the Swedish national anthem!

Hey. We have a positive record against Italy!

The Irish fans had some fun in Copenhagen!

KENT! But not nearly one of my favourite Kent songs!

It's Fær!

But when I'm most likely unable to be there to announce my votes (once again)

But I wanted an early spot!

That is really the problem with the focus on the team competitions with the amount of quotas.

14-year old Clara Tauson makes the jump into top 1000 when the WTA ranking is updated monday. She's in her second ITF final in a row! Will be extremely interesting to follow her.

I would agree with you some years ago (when you could make a Lineker-ish quote like: "Cross-country skiing is a simple sport. A bunch of men ski for 50 km and at the end, Northug wins"), but after Johan Olsson started with his daring attacks showing that they could actually create something, I would say that they are really interesting again. Sadly some of the most interesting skiers are either retired (Olsson) or doped (the russians), but I would still not agree.

Well. dcro was faster. Sadly I'm busy campaigning meaning that I will not have time to research other countries

1. (b) All songs must be ORIGINAL to the nation for which they are competing. In other words, if a song is a copy or cover of an original song by an artist from another nation, then it is ONLY permitted to participate for the nation of the artist who produced the original version. If the artist of the cover version are from the same nation as the original artist, then the cover version must fulfill rule 1(a) in order to be eligible to participate.

Sounds lovely. In Denmark I would say Aarhus or Copenhagen are the obvious cities. Copenhagen due to a lot of historical places, beautiful palaces, the little mermaid, two of the world's oldest ammusement parks (one being the oldest) and several fine museums. Aarhus isn't a city that you can spend a lot of time in, but it's defenitely worth visiting for a couple of days. We have a great arts museum with lovely views from the rooftop rainbow panorama, the lovely old town, where you can see houses from different eras and Moesgaard Museum that is a highly interesting cultural history- and archeology museum. Also there are lots of historical areas and buildings as well as some lovely spots of nature including the bothanical garden and the park that is a part of what's often called one of the world's 10 most beautiful universities. Also Aarhus is most likely where you could find me Other places could be Roskilde or Ribe. Both are smaller, but very historical. In Sweden I would always say Stockholm. Though it's an expensive city, it's really beautiful and full of interesting places to go. If you want some good ideas for less expensive cities (both Denmark and Sweden are decently expensive countries) I would say that Cracow and Warsaw (), Prague () and Budapest () are all very interesting. Berlin is a bit more expensive, but still very payable and also highly recommendable. If you want to go to southern Europe, my main recommendation would be Florence.

Torben Grimmel ending his carreer with a world record!

Actually I was reminded that it has happened later than that one. When Wozzie beat Muguruza in Tokyo (6-2 6-0)

Would have liked to give it a 4th go, but I don't have time for that. Therefore I have now voted.

Man it's hard for me to vote. Sadly I have to agree that this isn't one of the best editions. My winner is by far the best song (if you ask me) while the next 3 or 4 are pretty good as well. The rest of my votes aren't bad, but really nothing that I think I will remember for a long time.

Wozzie gives Halep a bagel! I wonder When it happened to a World No. 1 last time?

Compared to about 1700 in Denmark (2016) it really doesn't look like that much...

Shi Yuqi is a pretty decent replacement (though he hasn't been that good the second half of the year) and they have plenty of young women who are getting closer to the top. But no doubt that China is looking weaker than they've been for a long time. And about the totallympics badminton community. Sadly that's pretty much me and a handfull of Asians.

Some very satisfying results making it look very interesting for the future. Hoped for a bit more from the team pursuit, but I'm sure that they'll be ready when we get closer to 2020. Meanwhile it proved that the addition of madison to the Olympics gives us some fine chances. A men's pair should be absolutely sure while the women's pair may not be as clear, considering that Amalie could also very well have a good shot at the RR. But it should be possible for both Amalie and Trine to put up the results for us to have a spot in the omnium.

I've selected a Danish language song once (I believe). The problem for me is that most songs in our native language are very much songs that lose a lot of the meaning if you don't understand the language, while translations isn't quite good enough. Meanwhile I feel that Sort Sol (or other Danish artist writing songs in english represent Denmark just as much as those writing in Danish)

UEFA has asked Stockholm (Solna), London and Cardiff to prepare a potential bid for the 2020 Euro in case the new Eurostadium isn't looking to be ready in time. The decision will be made december 7th.
