  1. They want to avoid the Tokyo drama and really want to make sure my uncle Bob and your aunt Betty aren't in that flight this time?
  2. Possibly. I have no idea if she was paying attention to this at all, so I've at least pointed her towards this potential situation. I really do hope this would open the way to the 30k for her while still leaving Latvia with a full relay team. Win-win, one might say.
  3. I do wonder if this opens the things back up for Bendika's 30km hopes.
  4. Don't get me wrong, I am truly torn here: Wright very much deserves it especially after his top results last weekend, but I would also very much want Crnkovic to go. If it's going to be only one of the two, I'd be sad with either of them missing out.
  5. Hopefully that doesn't happen, especially after last weekend...
  6. What the hell I know there was a thing with the athletes needing to get under 70 FIS points, but I am not sure if that was as average (which at least some had) or in a single classic race or something (which neither of the women did). One man had the latter, but not sure if maybe they had different rules or something...
  7. With 8 women's quota being rejected, Latvia should be getting another one now (they're 9th, but Austria rejected two and is ahead of them in the reallocation list).
  8. With Marchant, Van den Broecke and Verbeke or Grandjean or Maes they easily have three with at least a definitely decent level though
  9. To think their best woman actually has the A-criteria (and not from Lebanon fluke races)...
  10. If there are indeed two options: 1. Relay, but no Bendika 2. Bendika, but no relay I can indeed imagine a country goes for the relay one. I am not sure I would entirely agree with it, but I would at least understand it (and I am aware I am definitely biased in her favour in this case). Main thing is that they could have said this earlier, one would imagine...but yeah, who knows
  11. I think she'd refuse the relay more because of the biathlon program: XC relay is on the one day between the biathlon sprint and pursuit, whereas the 30k is the day after the last biathlon race.
  12. Baiba Bendika is lightly pissed (at their cross country federation) (can't say I disagree with her, if at the very least they had said earlier they wouldn't select her anyway, she wouldn't have made several large detours to score good points....plus anyway she is simply the second-best Latvian, far ahead of the rest) https://www.instagram.com/stories/bendikabaiba/2753357581428119846/
  13. Yes, Maarten Meiners was actually mentioned as being selected last week I believe. I was truly stunned when seeing that!
  14. Now let's hope and pray and everything that tests won't mess things up..
  15. That dude in COB's livestream talked so damn long!!! My parents and I were anxiously waiting for half an hour before we finally got to cross country! I mean, after yesterday we knew....but you never know until you KNOW
  16. Could go at the cost of Di Centa and just because of the name I'd find that a pity
  17. Green dot for Brazil Names will be announced live on their NOC's Instagram in half an hour. https://www.instagram.com/timebrasil/?hl=en
  18. To be fair, it would be utter insanity if the Germans wouldn't select the full package of tickets they've got in any sliding sport...even if the season isn't always great in skeleton right now, they are absolutely always a gold medal threat.
  19. With the FIS Quota Acceptance Show being open, I wonder which country in which sport is going to post the first yellow dot (i.e. accepted fewer quotas than they had).
  20. Estonia: They have confirmed their quotas first, within a minute
  21. When I Googled her name I saw she's a figure skater, but I can't say I've really been following her results and such
