  1. Oh and what's the logic behind the shorttrack relay having both letters and colours? They're only mentioned as "Team A", "Team G" etc on the start lists, while the commentator literally only mentions their colours ("the blues are in front, but here come the whites!"). Meaning you have to follow three separate things (athletes, colours and letters) to follow your favourite athletes
  2. Watching the shorttrack now and it's unbelievable how bad the TV directors were, every single time I mean, they didn't show most events these Youth Olympics, but at least they showed shorttrack...and then they did it that bad, only showing the leader even if the leader is completely alone and there's a huge fight behind them.
  3. Personally I find Dave The Rocket Ryding more annoying. Maybe because the Dutch commentator calls him that every single time.
  4. Losing 4,5 minutes in a downhill training, that's something https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/general/results.html?sectorcode=AL&raceid=100138 Yeah I know obviously he must have crashed or met with some other mishap. Smart to get up and finish anyway, just in case tomorrow's last training is cancelled like the first one.
  5. But especially for Kilde I'm not sure he is that much better that he can make up for all the speed points he loses. He definitely has the potential, but isn't there yet.
  6. Kilde has the talent, but like Federer said, just not the consistency. Of course that can change with years, people improve after all, but at the moment he simply needs more than what he has (or shows). Kriechmayr and Mayer also don't seem consistent enough (though more than Kilde I'd say) to really fight for the overall globe..
  7. I highly doubt that. One can imagine they think so of a random African country in between several Muslim countries, but Belarus? Nah.
  8. But I doubt more than 10% of Americans has ever even heard of Belarus, so why would they care? It's not a muslim country as far as I know, so the whole "It's just a muslim ban packaged as a travel ban!" doesn't fly there.
  9. At least two of the three wins came from (slight) favourites at the bookmakers, which suggests it's not a huge upset if it is one
  10. That one seemed to be more serious than this so far...there are dozens of diseases that kill more people that most people have never even heard of.
  11. I've got a feeling Bariloche and Portillo are not on the list?

  14. By scoring once every 44 seconds? Not that complicated
  15. Yeah, get angry and try to change it for the next Olympics, but don't cry about the current ones after the facts..
  16. This YOG is weird. First a mixed ski jumping event with Nordic combiners where several teams (including Germany!) have a non-starter and then this Nordic mixed team with I assume one male and female jumper and one male and female skier? Thanks though, I couldn't find it in the schedule of any of these sports.
  17. #80 Which nation will win the Nordic Mixed Team Event? [] This event was on Monday
  18. Damn it Who's gonna defend the Süd-Tiroler honours in the speed disciplines now, because it ain't Innerhofer neither
  19. But Russian accent in English is one of the most awesome there is, so no complaints about that
  20. In which Spain suddenly has three nations cheering for them
