  1. Just put some suncream on your lips and smile
  2. The Tour of Portugal has started, often one of the most fun tours in terms of seeing things that are just impossible (like riders from W52/Porto sprinting up the mountains in a way that makes US Postal and Gewiss-Ballan look like 5-year olds). This time though, it coincides with insanely hot weather (40-45+ degrees), which has already caused one rider to abandon with a heat stroke.
  3. Odd decision, WEG is only once in four years, whereas he could have his wife pregnant again by Christmas.
  4. This is not going to go well:
  5. Edit: never mind, the published result was wrong
  6. Which athletes and times?
  7. Six Dutch boats straight to the final, good first day
  8. Lasitskene is an acceptable choice
  9. NEW USER ALERT @wumo26 and @szy123 Welcome to Totallympics Danish and Polish but both with Kamil Stoch as favourite athletes
  10. Well yeah, apparently for some nations it is, whereas in other nations it's simply seen as entirely separate events
  11. I think she's back (7.5km seriously tough Lysebotn uphill rollerskiing race) http://live.eqtiming.com/43903#result:162970-507070-0-1-1-
  12. If Germany is a Central European country, so is Italy. Or Belarus. Or anything west from Serbia and east from the Netherlands/Belgium/France/Spain
  13. In that case I think it just differs per nation. Apparently there are nations where this 'event' is actually treated as a multi-sports event, whereas other nations (like the Netherlands in this case) treat them as stand-alone championships that don't get more attention than usual.
  14. Yeah, choosing some mobster crime lord as president or something, but like that'll ever happen, haha!
  15. Impressive number of around 17 people on the grandstands so far
  16. For 'us' that doesn't matter: rowing isn't on TV now (maybe some finals will get attention in the evening sports news for a few minutes), only on Eurosport, which would be showing it anyway
  17. Dude, Mo Farah has quit the track, can't we just pretend he never happened instead of keep bringing him up?
  18. Does anyone know where to find start lists? The website of these so-called 'Glasgow/Berlin European Championships' have nothing, half an hour before the start of the first heats. Edit: Here we go http://www.worldrowing.com/events/2018-european-rowing-championships/
  19. Have you heard anything at all in your media calling it 'The European Championships'? I mean, here in Dutch media there has been a slight mention of these events being put together, but apart from that mention stuff is just called 'the European athletics/swimming/rowing/gymnastics championships', being several stand-alone events.
  20. Rowing is less than an hour away from the start and there are not even start lists. This whole thing is an even bigger joke than the European Games....I mean, look at Totallympics: the fact this 'event' is not even talked about in it's own thread or in 'Athletics at the European Championships Thread' threads says enough about 'the European Championships' really not being 'a thing'.
  21. Current year rankings don't always say everything though. For example if someone is ranked 10th but has shown in previous year to have a way higher potential, it's not very strange to put this person above people ranked 5th, 6th etc who have never shown they can be even faster.
  22. Having it out of one Olympics so that maybe the mess can finally get cleaned up is not destroying history. I voted no, because boxing needs to be very severely cleaned up and that's simply not going to happen when it stays in the Olympics, but I do want it to come back after major cleaning operations.
  23. Stegodon is not a mammoth, more like it's older brother
