I'm watching the Sjusjoen men's sprint of last weekend, dominated by JTB. But in 24th place I see...yeah, Dag Sander Bjorndalen! The 48-year old brother of youknowwho, team world champion in 1995, who apparently is still active Edit: never mind, it's probably more realistic that this is the 20-year old with the exact same name.

I had missed that, awesome Ukaleq Slettemark is not competing with/against her mom, but at least her dad is present

Hello, you guys might be interested (or not ) that Milanko Petrovic, 2013 Universiade gold (and silver) medalist in biathlon, is back. His last competition was the Sochi Olympics in 2014, but now he's on the startlist for tomorrow's IBU Cup https://ibu.blob.core.windows.net/docs/1819/BT/SIBU/CP01/SMSP/BT_C51A_1.0.pdf

Start lists https://ibu.blob.core.windows.net/docs/1819/BT/SIBU/CP01/SMSP/BT_C51A_1.0.pdf Roland Lessing and Daniel Mesotitsch representing the 40+ club. And cool to see Milanko Petrovic is back, Sochi 2014 was his last competition

The Klippan Logo, you only have to put it together with exactly not enough screws and you're ready to go

Name does not match result

At 18:00 we have the draws for the sprint, so probably around 19:00 CET the start lists will be online

Judging by the range allocation documents, Greenland is present Some other small nations too of course, but nothing too exotic. I think Idre is being skipped by quite a few of these small teams because the travel to Sweden for an IBU Cup that includes a pursuit competition (which it shouldn't) is just not worth it. It has two sprints though, but most likely most 'exotic' teams will have a heavy focus on the 2nd trimester when travel + program fits much better.

FC Porto and Schalke really are the only realistic 'average' opponents by the looks of it, so that's gonna be tough

And with one match to go even, what is happening

Epic epic epic epic epic epic

Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of SpongeBob SquarePants, has died aged 57 (ALS). Don't go to his Wikipedia page, some moron editted it and put up a huge goatse picture which is now the very first thing you see. You have been warned.

AEK has no fans? The stadium looks really, really sad and empty..

Stupid snow always messing up snow sports

Lowlife United in Athens, where 'fans' (obviously not real fans, since they know they're getting 'their' team in trouble) of Ajax have partnered up with the same kind of criminals from Cracovia and Panathinaikos to fight against AEK Athens' criminals.

Good morning Mars

Yes, it's full with ants.

De Zwaan - Kumar is most likely going to be the very first match. Dutch commentator was calling De Zwaan (and other players) right after the draw and told him "So you'll play the very first and very last match of the world champs" and De Zwaan didn't even notice the 'joke'

12 drivers driving a car they didn't drive this year, that's a ton of changes to get used to

@thiago_simoes will be pleased with the current standings for the Atleta da Torcida
