Christian:

 

Most volleyball players still play for years in our nation league after leaving the national team, that's why we don't hear a lot about them. For instance, Fofao (Hélia Souza) left the NT after the gold in 2008, but played until 2015 for the Rio team - the same team that, to this date, has in its roster the libero Fabi Oliveira (which left the NT after the 2012 gold). I think that's also the case with Dante, who played until 2012 in the NT.
 
So it's kinda a common thing among the top players.
 

Well then, happy new year

Perfect proof of why IBU's points system (where points can only be earned in serious international competitions with rarely less than 30-40 athletes) is a million times better than that of FIS  
 

I think people who watched "Game of Thrones" remember this quote "The North Remembers"
 
these days this quote is used in our football ! we had some problems (bloody street fights actually) in a match in our 2nd division league between two popular Northern clubs. (something like a derby) now the visiting team fans/players claim there will be blood if those two clubs meet again. here is how they showed their anger !
 
all 3 provinces south of the Caspian Sea are strongly considered as "North" in Iran. that's why they use this word "North". people from other parts of Iran like me rarely use any other word than "North" for those 3 provinces. so this really fits with "North of Westeros"

In Miami she'll lose early, then during the year she'll find her way to the top-10 

I'm not satisfied before I get a video recap videos recap video ...

After the host nation jury voting, all other nations can now send their votes for the Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2018. The voting is very simple: after listen to the songs in contention (which can be found in this list), the registered users in the contest must send their votes to me (@vinipereira) via private message, following the template below. Jury members will award points to their 12 favourite songs, which should be done no later than April 6th. You can find small excerpts of the songs in the recap videos above (we recommend to play them in HD). We thank you all for the participation!

If you think the likes of Al-Qaeda and Islamic State are 'good' and should have been left alone, sure. (because rather obviously those are the ones meant)
 
Innocent victims are obviously just as bad anywhere in the world.

Swedish cross-country skiing couple Anna Haag and Emil Jönsson have announced their retirement after tomorrow's World Cup final in Falun. 

At the NCAA women's tournament, this happened   (UConn eventually made 140 points)
 
 

The first Japanese podium even, not counting a Japanese win in a 'Mass start B' in Oslo in 1999.

It's on another course and the Dutch commentator said it looked like that one will go ahead. Nothing official though  

Speed skating World Cup 
 
This weekend is the World Cup final in Minsk of all places. Nobody cares because all world titles and important stuff have already been decided, resulting in for example 7 women in the 500m, 8 men in the 'mass' start and 3 teams (  ) in both team pursuits and team sprints

Saddest World Cup Final ever  

I can't feel too bad when they lose or something, but this kind of potentially neck-breaking crashes...nah, I'd rather not see those for anyone to be honest. Not even for professional cheater and racist Moscon, for example. 

It's Keirin on the road.

Yeah, as long as it's nothing serious is what I meant.

Nibali in front so, surprise surprise, a motorbike comes up right in front of him  

Rintje Ritsma, one of the best ever, had enough of skating for the national federation (which didn't exactly provide much of a living) and said goodbye to them in 1995. Eventually he/his manager started the first commercial team (Sanex), which eventually became the famous (in speed skating) TVM team, with the likes of Kramer. TVM stopped a few years ago and the main team now is LottoNL-Jumbo, which I believe was the second commercial team in 1998 (as SpaarSelect).
