  1. For what it's worth: during the week there were some more complications, but doctors thought they had gotten it under control. Things escalated though, and this morning they had to bring the news to her family that any form of recovery was not going to happen. At the beginning of the evening she passed away with her family, boyfriend (and possibly some teammates) with her.
  2. Barely three months ago she was showing us how to stay fit in these times. I really which disease just completely shredded through her in a matter of weeks (no word about COVID-19, and it didn't sound like that).
  3. I'm afraid this is not coming as a surprise, but it is absolutely devastating nonetheless. The Dutch speed skating federation has just announced the death of Lara van Ruijven at 27.
  4. I'm starting to think FIA released the virus, just so it would lead to their wet dream of Ferrari having it's 1000th GP at literally their own track FIA/Liberty even either gave it or accepted 'Ferrari 1000' in the official name of the GP
  5. Anyone else got a couple of these PMs? Oh boy, I feel like I'm about to get rich guys! Too bad the 'sister nurse' who 'helped type this message' apparently had typing typhoid, because it ain't looking so good.
  6. I'm still against the death penalty even in this case, since I'd rather see someone like that rot in a Southeast Asian cell, but let's just say I won't be crying for his life
  7. So long, asshole. https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/frenchman-francois-camille-abello-facing-death-in-indonesia-for-molesting-hundreds-of-kids-2260137
  8. Athletes have been kicked out for less this year... DeSean Jackson seems to not get in too much trouble for anti-semitic posting though.
  9. Now we will see the alien in half the Eurosport commercials!
  10. Something something UNESCO heritage
  11. That's a good thing, current events shouldn't lead to episodes being removed. Finally a positive note about Community
  12. And enjoy himself, I know I would if I had the chance
  13. What's up with coaches calling athletes fat? I mean, I get that coaching involves doing more than just saying "you are amazing" all the time, but come on. I remember Gabriela Koukalova (biathlon) talking about how her coach used to call her, quote, 'a fat pig'...when she was still a teenager. No doubt there are many, many, many more examples.
  14. Damn, you decide to retire and before even announcing it, your life is over RIP Alex Pullin
  15. They could have taken a bit of time to see the young drivers develop, but for now I can understand they choose a veteran like Alonso - who has proven himself quite often - to join the young driver they already have for next year. As for Alonso: it's all about what he wants Maybe he doesn't want to specifically 'add' something to his career, but he just wants to race at F1 level, who are we to say he shouldn't?
  16. Which is a tiny bit understandable for air sports, considering the logistics, but come on, for tug of war you pretty much literally only need one or two cameras in a fixed position to have a somewhat decent show.
  17. MTB World Cup in Les Gets, after Lenzerheide.
  18. Oh and even tug of freaking war getting a mixed event, f*ck me sideways
  19. Can't really find it hard to lose those airsports events when they were barely even shown in Wroclaw. I mean, I'd prefer to have them, but not if they don't get more than a few minutes (and only in the highlight videos of the day basically, without any competition video) attention anyway.
  20. Too bad debates nowadays aren't really anything more than everyone just throwing numbers, percentages and 'facts' at each other, most of which are correct but turned in a way to make them sound very strong while being actually meaningless
  21. Things are posted all over the place here, hard to keep track of everything
  22. POL and CZE puns
  23. Oh I don't believe they are lying, I always wonder this also when there is a big drug bust in the news here in the Netherlands One would say I have an idea about it since the flag in my UI suggests I know a thing or two about exporting while my nationality suggests I know a thing or two about importing, but nope, nothing
  24. I'm curious how they calculate these things though. A quick Google search brings a price (the high estimate) of around €60 per gram of meth. Since they caught 1,5 million grams, that brings us to 90 million euros I'm curious where the calculation is that brings it to over 2 billion (not that I'm doubting it, I am genuinely curious ).
