Some strange variation on double-elimination bracket.

No swimming competition is scheduled in the Polish Swimming Association's calendar for 2020 in those days - there is one of the events from Polish Grand Prix cycle on 25-26, but it has to do with the Olympics as the others - you can get the minimum also there. But knowing how our federation is, it means nothing - they could have simply not update the calendar or the rules or anything else.

Done, I did not realize it's not hidden as, you know, it wasn't for me surely

The whole doping system should be revised. For example me. I do have some breathing problems after an intensive physical effort - like yesterday, when I was changing trains in 5 minutes which needed a sprint across two platforms and stairs with a bag in hand and a computer in a backpack. When I got the train I needed to take a medicine to start breathing normally faster than just waiting until the pain stops. It's always getting worse in spring, because that has to do with my pollen allergy. But it happens just after some running, which in my case is mostly sprint to the train/tram/bus. Nothing to do with curling, which needs quite a strength while sweeping, but no effort of that kind that makes my breathing problems. Should I need a TUE for that medicine? Should I be banned if that medicine leaves any traces and will be find (if in some strange way I'll get to the point of my curling career to be examined for doping)?

They don't have asthma, they are only diagnosed with asthma. I cannot find the link right now, but I think it was Steira who said they were taught how to breathe at the survey to get that TUE for symbicort. And the best thing - nobody has done anything with that process by now. And is not going to, I'm afraid.

National Ranking Competition after European Junior Championships - I wouldn't call it moving UP.

If anybody's missing the modern pentathlon competition, we start a live coverage with my commentary from National Ranking Competition in Drzonków at 9:00 CET. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5lsbJZKFCU

And the best thing about that is that it doesn't matter if you're US (mm/dd/yyyy), Hungarian (yyyy/mm/dd) or normal (dd/mm/yyyy).

5/10 - Liechtenstein was correct, but again didn't show in the summary (as well as last week's Monaco - don't you like European principalities or what?).

For free in Polish TV (on the channel accessible for everybody and also on their website, unfortunately for foreigners, geoblocked for Poland only, still you can call it quite international )

Well, last Saturday there was a Boston meeting, also from the Indoor Tour. And besides US athletes playing main role, there was for example Klosterhalfen among them so it was also quite international.

Yes, maybe I overrated it - I forgot India is over a billion people nation, still the numbers I found (about 50 thousand) do make a strong impression here in Europe. Whatever liberal people think about abortion, such a kind of it is frightening for us.

Well, talking about that, it was said by someone from a country, where the selective abortion is common when a child appears to be a girl.

No title defense for Chloe Esposito - "a wonderful unexpected surprise has happened", using her own words. The August will bring something else into her life than another Olympic medal.

No way as athletes already have their plans (and the venue probably too).

Exactly what I felt during managing Water Polo Prediction contests Of course, it doesn't change I'm grateful for your support with that

What about Europeans?

Which is really nice of you, not giving negative points. Wasn't the caps-locked part of my post enough to tell you, how big mistake you've made?
