  1. That's all fine and dandy, but if someone is an idiot, that doesn't automatically make every point he makes wrong. Adolf Hitler was rather moronic, but if he said "you should not kill children" I would most definitely have agreed with him. Just like Kasper makes a perfectly fine point saying it's much easier for dictatorships to get the Olympics, no matter what kind of person he is besides that.
  2. Wait, the whole thing is wrong anyway. It shows 13 athletes for the Netherlands, while according to our NOC there will be 6
  3. Diede van Oorschot was not tall enough?
  4. So far there are apparently 6 biathletes at the EYOF
  5. Oh well, the big fans will take vacation from work and change their rhythm's anyway to still watch it, while the athletes know the competitions times more than a year before and so also have all the time in the world to prepare for competing in the morning or whatever. I hate TV stations controlling the starting times like this, but we shouldn't make it a bigger deal than it is in terms of outcomes.
  6. What's up with this weird aerials team event where there's an unequal number of athletes and so either 2 men + 1 woman or 1 man + 2 women per team? That's just nonsense
  7. IAAF doesn't want exciting stuff I mean, who cares that the 50km is almost all the time one of the most exciting events not just in athletics, but in the entire Olympic program, in terms of lead changes, fights for positions, drama during the race, spontaneous diarrhea, and so on. Boring events are much better!
  8. I find it a bit sad that we apparently collectively aren't sure if this lady in the photo is a decent but nothing special skier or the world's biggest alpine skiing super star
  9. Right, Vonn looks so different in this picture I most definitely didn't recognize her
  10. Which is why a pure 500m specialist will be the first position in the team, but that doesn't change that 1000m is still considered a sprint I don't feel too bad or good about the event, kinda neutral about it. Better than the baby mass start ISU put on the Olympic program
  11. This was my guess, but I couldn't recognize the other lady
  12. Yeah, Davies https://ibu.blob.core.windows.net/docs/1516/BT/SWRL/CP01/SMSP/BT_C73B_1.0.pdf
  13. Yeah I just realize I might be confused with Maxc Davies
  14. By the way, I can't stress enough how absolutely epic Pedersen's race was. That was utterly insane and one of the best pieces of skating I've ever seen.
  15. That's not true, the second lap is still definitely a sprinter (500m and 1000m are the sprint distances)
  16. You mean he is saying things that make sense, like (semi-)dictatorships having a much easier time to get stuff like the Olympics because they don't give two fucks about their people saying no and stuff like that?
  17. Wait, I'm looking at two people but I'm confused as to who is who
  18. I'm gonna give virtual points to every downhill specialist who gives it a try
  19. Wasn't that that race in Östersund where everyone missed more shots than they fired and he shot clean?
  20. Also: gold for Pedersen/Norway in a long distance after 16 billion years
  21. TalentNED is just some talent development programme in sports and business (or something), which happened to get together with a speed skating team needing a sponsor Anyway it's a commercial team, not the slogan of the Dutch or something
  22. Nawrath is being more than excellent so far.
  23. Who is Fourcade?
  24. Cool, I see IBU added the schedule to the datacenter I'm guessing FIS will have something for their sports as well. That already saves some time on the awful official website.
