I may be overthiniing here, but with the NHLers gone, one of the biggest adding value of the winter olympics is gone as well. Keeping that in mind and with the many criticizes that plague the Winter Olympics (constant overbudget, bad press, less than stelar locations, etc.)I could see a future where FIS (and IBU) see some kind of winter skiing games - to be held every two years - as a better propostion than the Winter Olympics as they stand. Not yet, but maybe one day at some point.

L'ambiance athlétique du moment m'a poussé à chercher des vidéos spéciales athlé sur le site de l'INA. Et bordel, y'a de ces pépites. Drucker qui interview Carl Lewis http://www.ina.fr/video/I08140730/carl-lewis-a-propos-de-sa-carriere-de-chanteur-et-des-jo-de-seoul-video.html Une pub Royal Canin sur un athlète marocain http://www.ina.fr/video/VDD05006323/said-aouita-video.html Patrick Montel jeune, mais déjà vieux http://www.ina.fr/video/CAB88001270/handball-l-equipe-de-france-philippe-medard-video.html Et une pensée pour ces meetings morts (Rouen, Nice, Créteil...)

Don't want to spoil your party, but he was not crying. I don't like the guy neither, but give him a break.

That moment going through wikipedia and realize they really did add a mixed curling event

Well, there is a solution that is fair to everyone but her, and there is a solution that is fair only to her.

I voted for Germany, then remembered there were only three nordic combined events. Should be a close competition for the number one spot between 5 countries.

Probably the first time I feel bad bad for a Brit athlete. Strange feeling that is.

Mondays fluid Transgender.

Life ban as a participant, and as a coach, and as a director, and as a journalist,etc.

Seriously ?

That's the Rumsas excuse ! She stole it ! Still a good one though. Personnaly, I think I'll go with Hamilton "Vanishing Twin" © . That was pure gold.

And while I'm at it, I can't enough recommend for anyone here to have a look at the new Icarus documentary (that is available on Netflix... and elsewhere). Fasinating and terrifying stuff.

Oh, oh, that one could be fun : Djokovic serving a silent ban ? (french) That is not comming from a random blog btw, but from the major sports network in Québec.The journalist states that she heard from multiples sources that the reason why Djokovic ended its season is because he is serving the infamous so called 'silent ban'.

Sarra Errani has failed a drug test for a stimulant (because that here that we should talk about it)

You allready know what's going to happen. It wiil be the Sharapova's script. Excuses, a lot of them,, some fake outragism, a bit of crying here and there, etc. You don't have to be so naive...

Really ? I'd like a link on that. Here (french), she basically confirmed she worked with him, but stopped once she learnt of his dodgy backgroung (that she never have heard of prior to that obv.)

Every doping case is "strange" if you want to make it looks "strange". Her carrer was strange enough though, but the fact she worked with Dr Luis García del Moral (google him if needed) should be enough to bring her credibility to epsilon zero.

I also love how the italian tennis federation was apparently able to keep it secret for months and help on her work for her defense. Because, yeah, sure, that exactly how it should work.

We scored two goals against Fiji Anyway, if anyone is interested in discovering international AFL, every games seem to be on their deidacted YT channel (you know, that little thing that so many olympic federations can't figure out )

The famous city of Bruxelles, Sénégal.

First world championship tittle in belgian history.

All right, thanks.

So theorically, you could have up to 6 athletes from the same country ?
