  1. There's a reason I've been telling you forever hockey is meant to be played on grass, not on ice.
  2. Basically he is milking the federation, so to speak
  3. The issue in a specific case like this though is that no matter what one thinks about independence or not, if country X is a member of sports federation Y, they should be allowed to compete under their flag in events of sports federation Y, no matter which country or sports we're talking about.
  4. First time I ever saw this Ao Hui, but she looks like a nice winner Almost kinda like the Fu Yuanhui of weightlifting, with her cheering and laughter and overall happiness
  5. Situation: Valdes Paris going for 140kg in her last attempt. Commentator: "To move her up to a guaranteed total bronze medal." And they don't even correct their mistake. In fact, after she made the lift and went to 250kg (2nd place, with two athletes still having to start their CJ): "You know what? She's guaranteed to end up on the podium." And no, they were not talking about a CJ medal, they had already said she guaranteed herself of at least CJ bronze earlier.
  6. Oh well, maybe in 25 years from now this is seen as normal
  7. Yep, everyone saw that coming since the very first moment. Didn't they already lose a European youth championships or something (and rightly so) because of refusing athletes to compete under their own flag?
  8. https://speld.nl/2018/11/08/rechter-verklaart-emile-ratelband-dood/ (In case you hadn't noticed, this is a satirical website )
  9. Rather funny coming from the head of an organisation that makes it impossible to buy tickets for their events if you don't have the right brand of credit card, or that won't allow people drinking the wrong brand of soda.
  10. Live stream for Salt Lake City day 1, which has been going on for a couple of hours now and still has plenty of hours to go. Results and start lists and schedules etc: https://shorttrack.sportresult.com/
  11. Haha, people who don't believe Sunweb does it all on peanut butter sandwiches and cheese
  12. Sounds just like an average sports administrator
  13. I would definitely like to not have a lawyer inside me, thank you very much.
  14. I feel ashamed I forgot to mention you, but yeah, congrats And not just any market, the BEST EVER!
  15. You learn a lot about Turkmenistan watching the live stream for a week. Apparently Kämil Market is THE BEST supermarket ever (note the surprisingly large number of black people in this commercial, which looks just a little like trying to make it look more Western, considering these demographics that show exactly 0 significant groups of where one might expect to find a large number of black people )
  16. Beautiful scoreboard so far (apart from Shimamoto's attempt)
  17. All those fake fans saying the action starts 2 December... We're only two weeks away today
  18. No need to get mad Just saying I don't agree because results show he often doesn't do much different than most other lifters in terms of missing attempt, that's all A forum would be boring if everyone always agrees I'd say
  19. In this last 3 big events he bombed out once and had 2 succesful CJ lifts twice (and when he was younger he had 2 and 3 succesful CJ lifts at world champs)
