These kids really need some more lessons.

Wow, that's insane.

The Tour de Ski should be as good of a mix of everything as possible and indeed a pursuit style final climb, as it's been since 'forever'....until now. I just really, really don't understand FIS' thought process in that change: how on earth is it better for any TV viewer to go from 'the positions you see on TV are the real positions' to 'you see things on TV, but without calculating you don't know the results'? Also: mixed feelings about that last statement, it'd be absolutely awesome, but it'd make for a significantly more boring New Year's Eve here at home

And that Canadian guy seems like an incredibly poor loser indeed. Grow up.

Wow, dumb move from Schutz

Yeah, like I said: people stay relatively quiet until the outcome isn't what they thought, after which they want to change the whole thing. No way José, you're too late.

The Netherlands is in.

Yes, before the draw in which the host was chosen.

You're mightily late with that. Everyone who was accepted in the draw has been accepted (by the main people when it comes to TISC organizing, like @OlympicIRL) as potential hosts. Changing that now that the outcome isn't as hoped, that's just a disgustingly shitty move. A: "These are the election rules." B: "Ok." A: "Trump is the winner." B: "But the system!! Unfair!!"

Also, I was afraid we wouldn't have a massive riot before the end of the year. Yay, luckily the Christmas spirit died a swift death

And it's perfectly fine not to like user A or B or whatever hosting the contest, but dear Lord, then just don't participate instead of ruining it also for everyone who does not have this big of a problem with said user hosting it. "I hate this, so fuck everyone who doesn't hate this."

If it weren't for that last part I'd totally agree with your post.

Oh not to worry, I won't be listening your song in that case. Not a second wasted to this kind of bullshit in terms of listening.

A boycott is just not participating, not sending in some obvious troll song.

Still less bad than purposefully entering and trying to mess the thing up from the inside. Seriously, to all who are planning to enter some shitty song on purpose or something like that: just stay away.

But still something somewhat unique in the World Cup. FIS is fucking up the sport anyway, with it's eternal focus on shorter races and more freestyle.

It's bullshit there hasn't been a single long stage in it for years anyway, and the last A-to-B-stage was already in 2013

But you are in fact a kid, one can expect that kind of childish behaviour.

But if it's airing it live, that means you can watch it live

Yes, Urs Kryenbühl Also, anyone called 'Beat', like Beat Feuz or Beat Hefti

That explains why I've seen her in cross-country so often this season Interesting choice, she was never specifically fast or something in biathlon.

Kryenbühl's best ever result before today was a 13th place.....yesterday Before that, it was a 20th place in Kvitfjell in March 2017, what a weekend he has

Because sadly there are still way too many idiots who think pitbulls and other 'fighting dogs' are perfectly fine.

Meh, Darius Labanauskas kicked out Steve Beaton Which is nothing against Labanauskas, just to be clear about that
