    Apparently they normally count ippons, but in this championship they draw a weight class to see who will fight a 7th and deciding match.

    Is that gonna be on ZDF in a bit, or is the SPORTextra something else?
  3. heywoodu
    Because that's a tiny bit too dependent on the car.

    Great Abaco Island is about to get screwed big time...really, really hope everyone has gotten out of there. That's (sustained!) wind speeds of 240 km/h and more.. Florida still projected to be in big trouble, especially if the hurricane indeed slows down after the Bahamas, that'd be terrible.

    Reserve Laila Youssifou takes a (provisional) Olympic ticket

    Kabaddi, canoe polo, polo, wushu, teqball (?), acrobatics, chess, sepaktakraw....come on I mean, I really really like some of those sports and love watching it (kabaddi and sepaktakraw mostly, canoe polo is high on my list too), but there's no way they should be Olympic...at all. Who knows, maybe in 50 years when they've grown bigger..they are perfect for regional/continental Games

    And another provisional Olympic quota for the Dutch fleet, this time in men's double sculls. Too bad commentators aren't really in the known and think they can now go to the Olympics, Martin Haven (bobsleigh/skeleton) always knows everything

    Explanation: "Met de billen bloot gaan" literally does indeed mean "Showing/exposing your buttocks", however in context it's the equivalent of something like "putting your cards on the table"

    Always by gold medals. Every medal counts, but in the end the gold is what it's really all about.

    I'd think I was a god if I beat USA

    Geraghty-Moats won't win today, the only way to beat her is by DQ'ing her http://medias1.fis-ski.com/pdf/2020/NK/4109/2020NK4109RL.pdf Yesterday she started 44 seconds behind and in only 5km on rollerskis she overtook everyone in front and won by half a minute

    The way Osaka dealt with Gauff after their match

    Current models have shifted to category 4 - nearly 5 - and potentially riding exactly up the entire coastline of Florida, except for the most southern part. And yeah, the (northern part of) the Bahamas is not where one wants to be now.
  15. heywoodu
    And once again models have made a bit of a shift. I hope everyone in Florida who is able to evacuate has made the right decision and either evacuated or is about to leave, this thing is gonna hit hard and nobody even knows yet where that'll be. Staying is the equivalent of putting yourself (and others, such as rescuers later on) in danger.. It's always sad and scary to realize that, of all people there right now, some of them won't be alive anymore within a few days because of this big thing that's on the way.
  16. heywoodu
    Well I'm hoping staying is the right choice for you...personally I'd at least have my most valuable stuff (as in, irreplaceable) packed in the car in watertight stuff or something, ready to go as soon as the forecast takes a somewhat negative turn.

    Hermida: "A Norwegian...can you pronounce that name?" Commentator: "Haegstad." Hermida: "Oh."
  18. heywoodu
    Oh no, Kerschbaumer That is terribly sad
  19. heywoodu
    Ah, so the Spanish former mountainbiker of who I've been wondering who it is for hours now is Hermida. I am very thankful to you sir I like Bart Brentjens as commentator but I'm very positively surprised by Hermida and am really enjoying his commentary, it's so nice and 'light' and you can just hear he is having tons of fun

    Everyone wants Schurter to beat them.

    Predicted Serbia by 40, Serbia wins by 46 Predicted Poland by 10, Poland wins by 11 Predicted Puerto Rico by 5, Puerto Rico wins by 2 Predicted Russia by 5, Russia wins by 5 Predicted Italy by 30, Italy wins by 46 Predicted China by 15, China wins by 15 Predicted Argentina by 25, Argentina wins by 26 Predicted Spain by 25, Spain wins by 39 Not unhappy
  22. heywoodu
    Nice to see the Dutch team going pretty well again Not some insane improvement or something, they've always had several world class boats in Olympic disciplines so it's not like several medals is all too surprising or something, but nice
  23. heywoodu
    Bresset 24th, Kalentyeva 30th+, Langvad 50th+....so many world champions who are SO FAR behind the pace nowadays.
  24. heywoodu
    After Rissved's World Cup win, here's another lesson to never ever give up chasing dreams when everything is working against you.
  25. heywoodu
    I mean, I find it cool Ferrand Prevot once again wins a world title at this supersweet track (as far as I am still feeling anything 'cool' or 'happy' after the shocking motorracing news which hit pretty hard), so that's nice, but yeah....once she overtook McConnell this turned into a major borefest.
