Meh. Fine about an event like the cross events, where it's a very clear 'who crosses the line first wins' kind of competition, but especially big air consisted of so much time of nothing happening...couldn't they have waited until for example at least the women's level was worthy of an Olympic event?

Like Eide, you mean? https://video.eurosport.co.uk/cross-country-skiing/she-s-with-me-every-day-bronze-medallist-mari-eide-pays-tribute-to-support-after-death-of-sister_vid1165901/video.shtml "I kept fighting and I was lucky" followed by "I kept fighting until the end" and "I was lucky".

Yes, he was even luckier than Eide, which is why I mentioned him. Anyway, Eide should be honest too and say the truth: never give up, because it might get paid off

Cool, we found like the one person in the world who hates the Steven Bradbury story

I could not give two f*cks if Eide 'deserved' the medal or not. She was behind, kept fighting despite being behind and it got paid off at the very best moment. That's the right mentality you need, instead of being in 5th or 6th place and 'giving up' because you're probably not gonna win anymore.

Sur place

That's meant negatively? Here we were just talking about how we're not a fan of him

Eide, YES!! Losing your sister (died during a training), wanting to retire and then getting a surprise world champs medal in the very same season, that is so cool.

During the race: Klaebo, if anyone. After the race: absolutely Ustiugov acting like a baby.

Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!

Eide in the final, awesome!

Skistad

That draw is actually pretty standard

Maybe in other countries then

I would have preferred e-sports, where results are based on, well, results, instead of on being 'cool'.

Honestly, I doubt that. I think since forever youth has been 'against' the established stuff like rules and burocracy, but here we are, enjoying it

Late teenagers or people in their 20's. The real 'kids' probably just want to see stuff they do themselves and I never see anybody breakdancing here. Also, skateboards were cool 15 or 20 years ago Now it's video games or, heavens forbid, watching videos of people playing video games.

No, because the new audiences don't give a crap about the whole thing and see it as a leftist money wasting party.

That was awesome, spirit of sport

I did?

I kinda feel like this, but I just know I'm gonna end up spending 36 hours per day for over two weeks watching (almost) everything anyway

I want koekhappen ('cookie biting', sort of) to be Olympic, where can I suggest it? Look, it's for young: And it's for old: There's a Paralympic wheelchair version: It's quite international, they even do it in Africa (and no, that's not 'he is black so it's Africa', it's actually in Africa): It's super traditional and has a rich history: One may even do it on horse if one so wishes: And last, but definitely not least, the freaking king himself does it and his queen absolutely loves it:

No karate by the way, so it's not all bad

That's pretty good. But overall, these are recommendations aren't they? IOC still has to accept them?

Aaaaand it's gone. Apparently someone either misread the rules or IBU didn't communicate it clearly, but unlike in the IBU Cups athletes are not allowed to compete in a relay only without competing in individual competitions. So both are now in Minsk for no competition, which is kinda annoying. They'll use the opportunity to get some extra training in and to get some 'classes' in waxing from Braztralia's wax man (this guy).
