Ok, we need to replace M and W alpine combined with M and W team combined events, ehhh...

So I have added Figure Skating Team Event and we have all 116 events in this thread. Done and dusted.

But if we add 2023 World Team Trophy it's: 1. USA 2. KOR 3. JPN

Updated after Event #115 out of #116 Curling Mixed Doubles, M and W Ice Hockey added. Only Figure Skating Team Event missing.

And we are leading 1-0 in 50 mins 💪💪💪 Lewandowski who??? 😉

But i wouldn’t add summer ski jumping myself because it just doesn’t make sense for me

Ok. Poland would add summer ski jumping then haha…

3 days to parliamentary elections here. Some today polls show PiS is first in the voting but opposition get more seats in Sejm. We will see… President said he will give the mission of organizing new government to the politician from a winning party though. A lot of things will be going on here. You will have many news from Poland in your headlines all over the world in the coming weeks I believe…

Almost no snow in Soelden they say… hope we can watch the event there though… can’t wait.

Coming back to Germany - if we repeat 2023 WCH results in all the events (unlike repeat of 99% of them like I do in this thread heh) we would have 2 golds - Eventing Team and W Team in archery. Next days should be much better. I don't think it looks that similar for any other NOC if we exclude athletics powerhouses like ETH KEN or JAM.

On day 6 POL is happy because Iga Świątek wins her semifinal in W Singles against Ons Jabeur TUN :-) So we have a medal number 5, gold or silver. It was a very hard battle though 6-3, 6-7, 6-4. In second semi Coco Gauff beats Jelena Ostapenko.

Still awful games for Germany so far. Have i missed sth here??? Maybe a gold in canoe slalom? Or shooting? Looks like scheduling is really bad for Germany this time. They will have much more medal chances in the 2nd half of the games.

From non-olympic sports i think speedway is the most popular sport in Poland (or at least in some parts of the country) but I don't watch it and I don't think it suits to the olympics so I wouldn't add it.

Hmm... interesting question. Honestly, I wouldn't add any new sport. There are already too many strange new sports and events so I wouldn't like to add more. Tbh, I don't follow ANY of the sports which are mentioned in the first post in this thread. So if they are added to the programme, I wouldn't watch them much so from my personal point of view they are not important. Globally I believe baseball/softball deserves to be in the olympics, it was there few times, I didn't watch it but I think this sport suits to the olympics. Joking a bit - while watching Asian Games I really enjoyed dragon boats races, so this could be it for me. But I don't know if anybody practices this sport outside Asia. Ok, maybe squash could be nice... I don't know. More important for me would be adding quota for some classic sports (road cycling, canoe sprint and slalom, fencing for sure, but I think also rowing, swimming, artistic gymnastics, athletics...). Rugby XVs would be great but I honestly don't know if it is possible. And I would like to see some events coming back - M K4 1000m in canoe sprint, M C2 in canoe slalom, W 500m and M 1km TT in track cycling. I don't exactly know which sports and events I would get rid of, but i can say which sports i rather don't watch or hardly watch when nothing else is going on or I watch only when POL athletes are performing: trampoline gymnastics, modern pentathlon, artistic swimming, taekwondo, equestrian dressage, field hockey, water polo, open water swimming, wrestling, may be sth else i forgot now, but i can't say i want to get rid of them because I know these sports have their fans. From new sports I'm sceptic about breaking, but we will see how it goes in Paris. In Europan Games it was boring for me.

I wonder if there are more medals for Cubans representing other NOCs or for Team Cuba in Paris... Very sad thought actually. Hopefully Wilfredo Leon will get one in M volleyball with Poland anyway. And remember Andy Diaz in M triple jump for Italy. Are there many Cuban boxers fighting for other NOCs? Is Cuba still strong in boxing?

@MagyarBabu a gold for Poland in M Quadruple Sculls would be nice but i don't know how much possible it is... Tokyo olympics 1. NED 2. GBR 3. AUS 4. POL ECH 2022 1. ITA 2. POL 3. ROU WCH 2022 1. POL 2. GBR 3. ITA ECH 2023 1. POL 2. NED 3. ITA WCH 2023 1. NED 2. ITA 3. POL We will see... Hope you are right and I have underestimated them predicting only bronze here

Ok, let’s move on! NOC #2 CUBA
