    Since CL is a gazillion times bigger and more prestigious than EL, I'd say expect something a gazillion times bigger Interesting that they're struggling with PSV in the league, yet went unbeaten in a group with Bayern, Benfica and AEK and then kicked out Real Madrid and freaking Juventus both by deciding it in the away games

    That's all nice and well, it doesn't take away that players like him (or ten times worse, Neymar) spend half the time of a match crying about how unfair everyone is to them. He does something right and he sees himself as the absolute GOD, he does something that doesn't work out and starts crying about some player 60 meters away accidentally hurting him by looking at his feet or something. Ugh.

    For which you still have to train your brains out most of the time.
  4. heywoodu
    That's how it works here, unlike rhythmic gymnastics, which apart from the obvious handful of diehards, just really nobody cares about or finds impressive or interesting to watch and mostly calls it a bunch of people throwing some hoops and ribbons around

    This week I learned one can start in qualifying and get to the semi's, so you never know
  6. heywoodu
    Thanks. Well, true or not, I do like seeing a woman from Iran starting to compete in a 'new sport', so there's that

    I don't complain when people call things like "the white race is superior" (Coubertin's kind of ideas) racist You know, because it is.
  8. heywoodu
    Not really, blatant racism - so loved by Coubertin - is still very much alive

    "Too easy to become an Olympian" Lol.

    @MHSN Any media attention in Iran about Sadaf Khadem? I read she became the first Iranian woman ever to compete in boxing this week (in France), but now has cancelled her trip back to Iran........because she'd be arrested there either for boxing or for boxing without hijab (of course that's what media here is reporting, I'm hoping there's some nuance to this..)

    Cheering for underwater hockey, but booing e-sports, meh. If there is one multi-sports event where e-sports should/could have a legit place, it's the Asian Games.

    And the 50k at 05.30

    This confuses me so much. On one hand, changing the distribution to condoms made of a more environment-friendly material is of course good. On the other hand, using the term 'single-use condoms' is frightening. Does he mean they're now gonna hand out condoms you're supposed to wash out or something and use again? The fuck. Literally.

    Since it started at 18:00 apparently, I think I was having dinner. Had I known beforehand that it'd take place at that time (but apparently nobody was interested here, since nobody mentioned "hey, this is gonna happen") I would of course have turned on the TV..

    Yeah, I saw he was attempting (and eventually doing) it a half hour after he finished and am still fucking mad the whole thing was on such a terrible time/day. I get it, time difference, but a Tuesday? Really? Awesome he did it, terribly sad I missed the moment Wiggins was finally kicked off the throne.
  16. heywoodu
    Yes, but not when he posted it
  17. heywoodu
    You do know that was definitely not live, right? It was last week
  18. heywoodu
    Can we have a compilation post of @bestmen bitching about compilation posts?
  19. heywoodu
    Rhythmic gymnastics? I very strongly doubt that. Much like dressage for example, if you have no knowledge of it you've got no idea what the hell is going on. At least in sports like swimming or athletics one can simply see who finished first or jumped the highest or something.
  20. heywoodu
    Ah, I saw 28 people died but wondered if anyone famous was born somewhere near where that happened. Thanks.
  21. heywoodu
    So that's what was annoying me! I knew something was different but couldn't quite put my finger on it
  22. heywoodu
    It depends. Repairs and additions have been made since it was finished, the thing that collapsed was half a millennium younger than the main structure for example. Almost no old building like this has been untouched since the building finished.
  23. heywoodu
    I'm European, yet it's not my history. It's the history of, in this case, Paris and France.
  24. heywoodu
    Nah, but that's usually the group of people who always comes up with 'wake up!!' and saying everyone who doesn't see 'it' is 'sleeping' or 'looking away'.
  25. heywoodu
    I didn't say religion, I said/marked cultural differences The likes of Mao, Stalin, Hitler or the people behind the Rwandan or Armenian genocide definitely had some sort of cultural difference with their victims.
