That's just being smart, because China.

But this isn't new at all....it's basically been public knowledge since forever

And if governments decide that people should be more masculine or feminine I thought Das Reich was mostly gone

Besides, this story would obviously not be surprising at all even if completely true. I don't think anyone would be surprised if Trump has been played for decades by the KGB

Wow.

Spot the Totallympian.

What's up with the junior/U23 world champs' schedule? The U23 athletes have a sprint, distance race and a mixed relay, whereas the juniors get to race in a sprint, individual start distance race, mass start distance race and normal non-mixed relays...

But isn't Baselga impossible as long as it's outdoor? I mean, I thought it had to be an indoor venue, like that's one of the prerequisites. Having outdoor skating at the Olympics would be awesome and every outdoor rink that's being turned into an indoor hall is a knife in the heart of the sport (looking at you, Inzell idiots, you messed up something so wonderful) but it seems...unlikely.

That's excellent. That means no Olympic speed skating there unfortunately, but better preserve a monument like that than destroy it for two weeks of sports.

You're a little behind buddy Sunday the GP Marseillaise was already held and today one of the more well-known early-season stage races starts with the Etoile de Besseges.

That seems doubtful, unless they basically destroy the whole thing by turning it into an indoor hall...which would just be terrible.

Although Biden doesn't have the power to jail Trump, obviously (neither does Putin with Navalny, officially, but I do think we can all agree the system in Russia is most likely a whole lot more dictated by the dictator's whims).

In need of some help here, related to the qualifying path for the 2022 Olympics. First off, here is the qualifying document: https://nocnsf.nl/media/3503/beijing-2022-qualification-system-cross-country-skiing.pdf Now, the question is how/if a country could get two female quota places, I find it a little hard to read and combine all options in the given document. Would the following scenario be possible? - The country earns the maximum of one female quota at the World Championships, thanks to at least one of the three women (or more, of course) going under 300 FIS points in at least one of the races there. - The same country then earns a second female quota by finishing in the top-30 of the Nation Rankings (also, where can said Nation Rankings be found? It's different than the Nation Cup?) I am mostly confused by the second point: do the nations between 21st and 30th place get one more quota besides the basic quota from D.1, or is that still a maximum of one quota and is it impossible for nations ranked 21st or lower to have two female quotas?

Yeah but those schedules were just...odd. Having the bronze medal match after the final means really nobody gives a flying fuck anymore (maybe outside some people in the two countries) instead of only a few people Weird request as well, I get USA wants the final at their best possible time, but that shouldn't be much of a problem while still having the bronze medal match before it.

Excellent chance that's a mistake I'd say

Yeah but Hollyboob probably makes people think about OMG A NIPPLE so luckily they were arrested and gonna be put away for a long, long time for that horror /usa

What's with Jamaica and Brazil and World Cup podiums by the way? Edit: Ah, right, those B-division World Series races that are held outside the World Cup circuit

And speed skating, two weeks after it started

I don't think we have any of those movies that always comes back on TV here, but then again, commercials for those are usually not on Eurosport so I might miss most

The Outsider is worth watching So is Barbaren so far, especially if you like some 2000-year old history.

Damn Goggia is such an awesome skier to watch, but yeah...

Kramer is on fire

Sorry for your loss buddy

Oh crap, this commentator nightmare has hit the World Cup

Ärni going from 29th to 4th
