Ah sorry, that's the nerves before the olympics talking

Les paris de l'Equipe: 25 titres, dont 3 pour Leon Marchand et quelques choix audacieux comme les volleyeurs (mais pas les handballeuses par exemple) https://www.lequipe.fr/stories/85

Petit point médias: Eurosport et toutes ses variations sont apparues sur mycanal ! Edit: il est temps de se replonger pour la dixième fois dans la finale - de volley

The court looks so cool !

Heum... please stop ? There is nos such a thing and never was, mostly because for the longest time people didn't care enough about the Vuelta and the Vuelta and the Giro were rode within a week of difference. Lol...

With their coming demographic collapse, it's unlikey to get better.

Pas de Margot Chevrier, ni de Ludvy Vaillant La première sera sur F3 ce soir d'ailleurs.

Didn't know that : the head of design of Paris 2024 is called Joachim Roncin. I had never heard of his name, but I certainly knew (like all of you) one of his work. :

Is it not too late for a replacement ?

France 2 pour les épreuves principales, France 3 pour les sports co. Les 2 pratiquement 24/24. Sinon, je suis un peu comme @Styrka, je pense passer l'essentiel de mon temps sur France TV par facilité (j'ai pas encore testé l'application MAX en mode télé, à voir). Mais, je ferais au moins une exception dès que Nicolas Geay s'approchera d'un micro. C'est peut-être un garçon très sympathique dans la vie, mais au micro, c'est une catastrophe. Il bafouille, se perd dans ce qu'il veut dire, se laisse manger par les émotions. Le pire étant la piste, où là, clairement ca turbine pas assez vite la haut. Je suis encore traumatisé par le bronze de la vitesse par équipe où il n'avait RIEN compris.

Footage of the table tennis arena finally !

Vous serez plutôt France TV ou Eurosport ?

It has been the training venues for french riders for some years now.

Nous y voilà enfin, les Jeux - nos Jeux - ouvrent dans quelques jours. Ce post est plus ou moins un appel à projet Est-ce que quelqu'un se sent de tenir à jour le first post (programme, médailles, etc.) ?

Desesperatly searching the internet for actual footage of Volleyball Arena Table Tennis Arena Grand Palais Ephémère

During his post victory ITW on french television, he seemed doubtful about his Olympic participation. -" anyway, we will see you in Paris next week" - "he..., we will see"

You know more about current french music that I do There was a poll this week from l'Equipe asking their readers what were the artists they wanted to see featured during the ceremony. The readers agree with with your number one Full result (every topic)

Hype from 2017 ? TBH, she was a bit sick in 2023 and she had the second best time of the qualification in 2024. Personally, I'd b very satisfied if she ended up with a medal at Paris (sprint or keirin)

Porte de la Chapelle Arena ready to get bad

Quand tu mets une seconde à ton record personnel à 10 jours des Jeux, mais que ça t'avances pas d'un iota dans la quête d'une médaille olympique . (bon en vrai, elle avait l'air très heureuse de sa perf )

I can't wait for Amsterdam 2040 (please no Korfbal though)

From that list, the ones I see who are not going to make it are & and possibly &

I was trying to find out what were the 'official' medals/placing target of likely top ranked countries set by sports officials. Here they are, feel free to add any. "Top 5 of the medals table" "Better than in Tokyo" "Better than in Barcelona" (> 22 medals) "We don't do that kind of thing, piss off mate" "Between 13 and 18 medals" "Between 15 and 25 medals" "5 gold medals at least" "55 medals, including 20 golds" "Better than in Tokyo" (> 21 medals, >7 golds) "Keep our Top 9 from Tokyo" "Top 10 of the medals table" "Better than in Tokyo" (>7 medals) "Top 5 of the medals table, between 50-70 medals" "6 gold medals at least" (athletics only) "As good as Tokyo" (≥ 13 medals) PS : I found nothing for , , or
