heywoodu reacted to De_Gambassi in Doping Cases and Bans in 2024
Apparently, there were two cases where the athletes was able to "prove" just that. Basically, you have to show evidence that the amount of the prohibitive substance from your partner is much higher than your own.

heywoodu got a reaction from intoronto in Doping Cases and Bans in 2024
And in today's news: she's going with the 'it came from sex' defense. So they're throwing her partner Race Imboden under the bus, but considering he is retired anyway, I'm sure he doesn't care
Dutch media for some reason seems to have a weird focus on specifically mentioning oral sex. Like they want to make it more, you know, juicy

heywoodu got a reaction from maestro in Athletics Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024
John Heymans has been talking about how he wrote a computer script to qualify for the Olympics in only 4 races
https://www.runnersworld.com/nl/nieuws/a46591071/heymans-olympische-spelen-chatgpt/
Basically, he expected he'd run around 13:15, and he was going entirely for the world ranking qualification pathway instead of the time limits. He entered all athletes who ran 13:15 in the past 5-6 years, ran their results through his script to basically see how many points they got in which races. Some more statistical analysis and stuff was done on the data, and in the end the script gave him a handful of races as best options to score an optimal amount of points...which is what he did, and so he rose on the world ranking all the way to a qualifying spot with only 4 races

heywoodu reacted to MHSN in Taekwondo ATU Asian Olympic Qualifier 2024
Yeah, that's the problem. I understand and agree with 1 athlete per weight class rule. the current format says 2 (out of 4) per gender. you can have a full team only if all of them finish in top 5 (or in some cases 6) of the world ranking which is really hard. lots of athletes in top 10 of World ranking will miss the Olympic because their NOCs already qualified 2.
Taekwondo entered the Olympics back in 2000, at the time it was all Korea, IOC made this rule to prevent Korea from winning easy 8 gold medals. but this is not the same anymore. Korea struggles to even qualify lots of athletes.

It'd be something...missing one Olympics by choice, missing another due to injury...and then actually going to one because of escaping a significant doping ban

heywoodu reacted to Makedonas in Athletes Deaths Thread
And now his ex-wife (they divorced before they died), / volleyball player Ruxandra Dumitrescu has passed away at age 46 from cardiac arrest. She was originally from Romania but got Greek citizenship after many years playing in our women's league (17 in total but she got citizenship after 7 years), played for the Greek women's national team at Athens 2004 as well.
They had a son together also, he is probably not even a teenager yet, so sad for him to grow up without parents...

heywoodu got a reaction from AsensioWillemsen in Athletics WA Indoor World Championships 2024
Oh nice, a whole back and forth about a person who prefers to be called 'they' instead of 'her'. Even the 'what is a lock?' discussion was more useful

heywoodu got a reaction from Noorderling29 in [OFF TOPIC] Eurovision Song Contest 2024
Yeah, I can very much understand people having this in their top-3 and understand people having this in their bottom-3, but anything in between...impossible You either really dislike it or really like it

One day we'll look back at the Olympic history and go "yeah kids, there were times when people got Olympic medals for stuff like literature, break dancing and painting"
