  1. Yeah, Harris might not be great, it is still definitely better than having an outright psychopath as president, again. At the very least it should be someone who is at least capable and willing to, you know, communicate like an adult. Trump very clearly can not do that, although one would assume his childish yelling and overall immensely bizarre way of speaking (from his intonation to his 'we did great, everyone thought it was great, they couldnt believe how great I was!') must appeal to a certain kind of person, I suppose.
  2. Yeah this was amazing, the entire weekend was one massive rollercoaster every which way for everyone
  3. History in New York yesterday by the way, where Abdi Nageeye became the first ever male major marathon winner from the Netherlands What a run that was, outright beating multiple Boston and NY winners Evans Chebet and Geoffrey Kamworor and Olympic champion + reigning NY winner Tamirat Tola
  4. Hopefully they don't keep expanding too much, or else we get to a situation where the majors lose their value more and more.
  5. I swear, every single time in the New York marathon
  6. But someone who played some of those 'world championships' that aren't really world championships (those lower level things) says it's great, so it's great I wonder, is it also urban?
  7. Today was the Saitama Criterium, kind of the 'closure' of the season, although not very serious. The finish was kind of hilarious, with Girmay clearly having been selected as the winner beforehand
  8. Malevy Leons has made his NBA debut for OKC last night, first time in 13 years there's a Dutch player making time in the NBA Interesting thing is that he's not even the only one, there's not one, but two more Dutch players with an NBA contract this season (but no minutes yet): Jesse Edwards for the Timberwolves and Quinten Post for the Warriors, both will be likely to play in the G League first.
  9. Meanwhile, the finale in Valencia is cancelled, as it should be considering the circumstances there (even if racing was possible, they really shouldn't). Question is still where it will be held now.
  10. It depends on what you all follow I think, for me it's more or less the same as for you I've had one real weekend of watching winter sports (last weekend, with shorttrack and alpine skiing), the next one with multiple sports is still a few weeks away Wengen, Kitzbühel, indeed, then we're well on the way for real.
  11. Bagnaia throwing away basically his last real chances for the world title by going down entirely unprovoked in Malaysia's sprint (with Martin in 1st)
  12. What I'd give simply for the world juniors and such to even be back at Eurosport...those were the days
  13. I was away yesterday, but if the draw is tonight I might be able to help if needed!
  14. They do have the by far best current Dutch NHL player though
  15. North Korea and the US played the first semifinal at the U17 World Cup last night:
  16. This photo posted by ski crosser Federico Tomasoni, her boyfriend, damn
  17. Italian alpine skier Matilde Lorenzi has died during the night after a bad crash in training yesterday, only 19 years old https://www.krone.at/3574860 Two top-10's in the speed disciplines at last season's world junior championships, lots of Europa Cup results and she was Italian super-G champion in quite a strong field (seniors), definitely someone we would have been likely to see in the World Cups in the next few years..
  18. Well yeah, I mean, the best part of Europe is places like Switzerland and Austria with it's mountains, but Kazakhstan has that too Might also be me being the opposite of a sightseeing person. I've been to Barcelona for the 2013 swimming world championships and all I did was go from my hotel to the swimming pool and back twice a day (heats, finals) I did see the Sagrada Familia in the far distance from Montjuïc (where the swimming was held), so...I saw a sight, I guess.
  19. Yeah, but what I mean is: the sliding sports are by far the best sports for a home nation to vastly improve their medal chances, so make sure that track is done before anything else, because that will actually improve the medal chances..
  20. So yeah, yet another big chance thrown away When will countries learn? Once you get the Winter Olympics awarded, the very first step should be finishing the sliding track (if it isn't there already)
  21. Time for Mexico During qualifying Perez has humiliated himself even more than he has done most of the season (especially considering it's his home crowd), sadly, hopefully he can find a miracle and pick it up a bit today...
  22. 7th as best result though in the World Cup
