  1. No doubt. Both Hamar and Heerenveen would be insanely awesome venues for Olympic speed skating, apart from outdoor venues I can't think of any better location for any major competition (so many speed skating venues just feel....dead), but for an Olympics in France? That's just too many countries away.
  2. It's 1,5 year until the Olympics, surely by now they are supposed to know where things are being held? I assume the bobsleigh track has been long finished by now, or did they decide to wait until the last moment with finishing the track, so they can throw away 'easy' medals?
  3. Angola doesn't have their awesome goalkeeper anymore, otherwise I'd still cheer for them
  4. I think that was my mistake for mixing the Vuelta in, that's what I thought of when I saw 'gold' Sorry. Although I do still firmly believe things like crowns and slams aren't really much of a thing in cycling. Winning all three Grand Tours in a year would be, but winning two out of three plus a championship (or two) just kind of seems like an "almost complete thing" (much as it would be immensely impressive, obviously!)
  5. There is, this is just a small portion of the draw.
  6. Right, sorry, using only hockey can be confusing for some people.
  7. Surely one is allowed to crack a joke about it, like this Twitter account clearly does There's definitely nothing against Alcaraz in it
  8. Carlos Alcaraz found the Dutch hockey ladies and is.....busy
  9. Vera van Pol is out with a foot injury sustained in training, Tisha Volleman will replace her.
  10. gymnast Vera van Pol has suffered a foot injury in training and is out. Tisha Volleman will replace her.
  11. Maar ja, dat zou wel volledig los moeten staan van de verwachtingen voor nu. Verhoudingen en kansen verschuiven gedurende de jaren nou eenmaal, volgens mij kan men moeilijk stellen dat het met Nederland achteruit is gegaan in het roeien
  12. Day -2 and HBO/Eurosport already seems to be using one of those generic commentators for the rugby (the woman, in this case) "What I love so much about the Olympics, is the stories of resilience of these athletes." Ok, sure....but the stories are the same in their regular circuit events (whether that's World Cups, World Series or some league or another), just not nearly as many people care
  13. Can't say I'm an expert, but Fiji looks to kind of be humiliating the US
  14. That sounds like a massive blow for the Korean medal chances
  15. Right, the way the commentator said it ("everyone's thoughts is with this man") suggested something sad had happened or something like that. Good that's not the case
  16. There was a particular Frenchman on screen, not sure who, and the commentator said "this man is in everyone's thoughts here". Any idea why?
  17. Saw 'Jessica Fox' and immediately expected a comment from you Thanks for not disappointing me
  18. It's more unfair that tennis can have 64 singles players when other events with a similar knock-out format can't even have a third of that
  19. The Torenberg near Apeldoorn, I will have you believe that is officially 107 meters high, good sir. https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torenberg_(heuvel)
