  1. I'm impressed by Gontier, one of those who will for sure throw away Italy's non-existing medal chance apparently
  2. Ugh, Belarus. The one day I picked them, whereas all of my friends choose Slovakia.
  3. Agreed, although that Ligety guy looks promising too.
  4. RIP Hirscher's era.
  5. Today's forecast? Always sunny!
  6. The Falun course must be killing, world class athletes like Kalla and Von Siebenthal are out with 20+ seconds slower times than the leading Swedes.
  7. I'd have said "fuck it, another season it is" so yeah, good for him
  8. I like that anyway Seeing those big slow moving units wrestle their way through those narrow slalom gates, cool
  9. I would choose Saturday if it was up to me: free day for the majority of the population and you can watch the election shows and results and broadcasts all night long without worrying about waking up early the next day
  10. But he has probably been trying that all week
  11. I wish we had the same here instead of basically always voting on a Wednesday
  12. If all this means Mijain Lopez is back, please for the love of everything mention me when he's gonna fight
  13. That's ok, I only like adults anyway.
  14. Well I don't see that as 'entertainment' as much as 'living'
  15. One of those who were systematically doped by coaches from their early teenage years on
  16. Those who don't care that they won the Champions League with EPO? I know none of the current players had anything to do with that time, but speaking about the club as a whole, it'd be cool to see them kicked out especially by the team they robbed all those years ago
  17. Now I'm imagining Christiansen standing in front of his girlfriend juggling with some bowling pins or something, entertaining away
  18. Yeah, let's quote posts with 8 YouTube videos in them without removing the videos from the quote
  19. Bookmarked this post just in case Christiansen bites you in the ass.
  20. Good that you're at least making exams instead of striking. I read that in Belgium children of certain schools are obligated to go to a climate march, which I think is not good at all...give them the choice if it's for one day, fine, but obligating it? No way.
  21. For the single mixed you only need one guy though
  22. Brazil is a 'nation'/federation. I mean, it all started 15 years ago or something with Leandro Ribela and one or two other pioneers, who's names I'm not sure about (possibly Helio Freitas was one of them). Nowadays there's a big shift between the old and young generation: Leandro Lutz, Fabrizio Bourguignon among the men, Mika Picin for the women, although they're not all competing anymore this season. I think they more or less started independently, but then there's the young generation: Bruna Moura, Gabriela Neres, Lucas Martins, Victor Santos, Caio Moreira (retired since a few years already to focus on personal stuff, I was sad to see him go but am happy to see he's happy and very well), all of whom started with cross-country and biathlon more or less via Leandro Ribela's social project Ski na Rua. There's also Matheus Vasconcellos in the Junior Cup, probably the Brazilian with the most potential, but he mostly grew up in Austria (speaks fluent Austrian-German with a thick local accent) and doesn't have that much to do with the project and all. On the other hand, in Greenland it's all Slettemark Australia is a whole different story that probably would require more reading material than the entire Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit universe, so not gonna get into that
  23. In Christchurch?
  24. Absolutely, and it keeps giving athletes from small nations some incentive to keep on competing because the federations get money per starting athlete Which then goes to the athletes (like Croatia, at least partially) or not (hello Brazil), but anyway it can offer some kind of help (if a national federation would use it wisely). IBU Cups are fun though No huge masses of people you have to push your way through*, quite a 'familiar' setting, pretty accessible and so on *although in Arber it is busy enough to not be able to stand at the front when the races are going on and you arrive too late or are pacing back and forth
