    Sport Sport when you were betting on your own life In France, we have been traumatized with temporary facilities like this since the Furiani accident (1992)

    Would you ski jump here ? (Wembley, 1961)

    Despite securing his first big Crystal Globe, QFM was apparently completely pissed to cross the line in second position "only"

    (2021) https://biv.com/article/2021/12/nhl-continues-be-fan-favourite-canadas-pro-sports-rankings-poll (ranked by leagues) 1) NHL : 55% 2) NFL (36%) / CFL (32%) 3) NBA (31%) 3) MLB (31%) 5) MLS (22%) I assume that soccer will be ranked higher, if the question was about sports and not leagues.

    Not really, RL country is also RU country. You can't draw a line here like the M62 in England. (and it's also a very minor sport in our country unfortunately)

    I remember reading that the switch to artificial pitches basically destroyed the game in the region.

    Looks great, the Swiss will love that

    field hockey at 3.69 are just people who need their hockey fix during the summer right ?

    It's funny, because when you hear promoters of hyper marginal sport like korfbal here, they always talk of their sport in other countries like something super popular, right next to football, but it's rarely the case Same with honkbal (love that name)
  12. De_Gambassi
    So all these years were only a lie
  13. De_Gambassi
    To me at least, but I don't follow the sport much In Europe, I can only think about Irlande (and that's arguably). Outside of it ? Canada, the US, India maybe, perhaps some caribbeans nations (Jamaica ?), and most oceanian nations (Australia to start with).

    You're old, it's not les barjots anymore since the 90's

    Australia now (2021) I'm so jealous of the Australian sport landscape with four different football codes ranked there Half of the Australian population is at least "neutral passionate" (???) about AFL and tennis. All right, that's 3 countries, only 200 to go
  16. De_Gambassi
    Swimming does seem a bit too high, it's not like they're are thousands flocking to pools for swim mets every week across Germany (or in any another country for that matter).
  17. De_Gambassi
    I was looking for a similar study for my country, but unfortunately didn't find much, except this one from last year https://www.olbia-conseil.com/2021/06/17/lappetence-des-francais-pour-le-sport-et-les-nouveaux-modes-de-consommation-du-sport/ I'm not sure of the methodology or the questions asked, but they come with this ranking, witch seems fine to me: (rugby represented by a gridiron ball, damm parisians )

    Polls are good, they are better than (educated) guesses anyway. Here's one for Germany, asking in which sport Germans have a strong interest : https://www.marktmeinungmensch.de/studien/die-beliebtesten-sportarten-der-deutschen/ To no one surprise, Fussball gets the more votes, then it's getting more surprising with ski jumping as a number two, athletics still a popular sport, etc.
  19. De_Gambassi
    Well, there is at least one guy who is fully ready for ski-ballet to make the comeback of the comebacks
  20. De_Gambassi
    fall of this year
  21. De_Gambassi
    Still good
  22. De_Gambassi
    That's surprising Some descent results from our team with a bunch of B finals (and one A final). Nothing great, but much better that what we saw at Beijing (not a single semi-final)
  23. De_Gambassi
    lol @ Cycling
  24. De_Gambassi
    What a beautifull athletics stadium that only took 11 years to be built and god knows how many millions and that will never be used again after the Mediterranean Games
  25. De_Gambassi
    Exactly, not 84 years ago but 'only' 12 Not mentioning Marion Rolland downhill world champion in 2013, but who never won a world cup race.
