Thanks for the videos! Good idea with that, PS. Where is GOLF??? :-)

(early thoughts) 1. ATHLETICS - Men's Pole Vault - Władysław Kozakiewicz Gold in Moscow 1980. Gold in Moscow 1980. On July 30st, 1980! In Moscow! And you know the gesture he showed to the audience.... July 30th ... And you know what happened in August 1980 here :-) Solidarity movement, Lech Wałęsa... Kozakiewicz will be always part of this story. 2. VOLLEYBALL - Men's Tournament - Gold Medal in Montreal 1976, beating USSR 3-2 in a final. In 1976!!! 3. ATHLETICS - Men's 10,000m - Janusz Kusociński winning gold in LA 1932. He was killed by Germans in mass execution in 1940. 4. ATHLETICS - Women's 400m - Irena Szewińska gold in 1976. WR. Probably the best Polish athlete in history, many say. 5. SKI JUMPING - Men's NH and LH - 2002, Adam Małysz in SLC, this was THE BIGGEST HYPE here you can possibly imagine. No gold though.

This is not about - 5 moments YOU remember the most. It's what is remembered by people, as you see it.

(early thoughts) 1. ATHLETICS - Men's Hammer Throw 2. TENNIS - Women's Singles 3. SPORTS CLIMBING - Women's Speed 4. VOLLEYBALL - Men's 5. CANOE SPRINT - Women's K4 500m

We can call here 5 chances, naming just events, not certain athletes necessarily. But if you like it other way, it's up to you ;-)

Read this article on i24NEWS: Iran abolishes morality police: prosecutor general https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/middle-east/iran-eastern-states/1670145726-iran-abolishes-morality-police-prosecutor-general

vs revenge for 2018 possible in theory… chances for that are like 0,0000001 %. sth similar to Bródka winning margin over Verweij in 2014

You knew it's gonna happen. Even if you keep saying, why this guy puts so much spam here, you obviously knew it. Here we are. I would like to invite you all to Imaginary Winter Olympics. Held in Kraków (opening and closing ceremony here). Many events in Zakopane and around, ofc. And a little help from our friends from Slovakia, half of hockey matches in Poprad, some alpine skiing in Slovak Tatra Mountains etc... hckosice asked for it ;-) Let's go.

[hide] Knockout Stage December 3rd - December 18th, 2022 16 Nations, The Winners of each Round of 16-Matches will qualify for the Quarterfinals. Round of 16 - From Group E to H Date & Time (GMT +3) Nation 1 T1 T2 Nation 2 December 5th 2022, h. 18:00 Japan 1 2 Croatia December 5th 2022, h. 22:00 Brazil 5 0 South Korea December 6th 2022, h. 18:00 Morocco 2 2 Spain December 6th 2022, h. 22:00 Portugal 2 2 Switzerland [/hide]

Basketball - M - USA. I wonder who would get a spot in an all-time Dream Team. This question is good for a new thread, I guess. 2. SRB 3. ARG Honorary mentions for CRO & LTU. But in this event I consider SRB as a YUG and RUS as USSR teams from the past, many Croatian and Lithuanian players were in the gold medals teams, but they were not majority there, if I counted well. Basketball - W - USA. 2. RUS 3. AUS - tough choice for 3rd, choosing from Olympic silver medalists, but AUS won silver more than once. Handball - M - ..........CRO Why? Rules here are: who would have won? That doesn't necessary mean we choose GOAT in each event. So here FRA looks better on paper. And I cheer for FRA usually. But in my imaginary olympics it will be a final for ages, CRO will win it in overtime, showing their strength against probably better opponent. So I pick CRO just for the fun of it. 1. CRO 2. FRA 3. DEN winning against GER in overtime as well Water Polo - M - HUN I went to water polo junior men's game in Eger once and I have seen how passionate people are there about this sport. I knew they are before but I didn't know they are passionate so much. And 1956 HUN water polo team will probably always be on our minds here in Eastern (or Central - whatever you'd like to call it) Europe. So 1. HUN 2. CRO 3. ITA btw, RUS will not make it to last 4, HUN will beat them in QFs :-P (in overtime, ofc) Next poll in 2 weeks time. Stay tuned.

Poll #44 is still going on. But I will have a lot of work next week, so I start this one today as well.

How do you watch college football? VPN?

halftime here. Maybe it is a good moment for a quick reminder of the best world cup goal imho 😛

And what you think about ? You think they have any chances to qualify when there are 16 european teams?

Thanks, I will correct it.

Look like WC 2026 may be: AFC CAF CONC CONM OFC UEFA 2 add uff.. 48 is just too much... and after this year vs and vs and vs I am very worried how the 3rd leg of group matches may look here...

There may be more US emotions in Beaver Creek than here today… ehh…

Good that i am not a gambling man. two goals wchich looked almost the same

What are the bets for 1-0 at halftime?

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/dec/03/world-cup-qatar-2022-poland-argentina-france-robert-lewandowski-piotr-zielinski Let's play ball, exactly.

What a game that was! I remember it like it was yesterday. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/dec/03/how-england-pulled-it-out-of-the-fire-against-millas-cameroon-at-italia-90 I wonder if Senegal can do sth similar.

Yep, that is why I like this community so much.

I voted 1. Elijah Winnington AUS 2. Lukas Martens GER 3. Antonio Djakovic SUI Forgot about Galossi, you all may be right about him. Djakovic was first to come to my mind as someone who will improve fast. I understand 20 months away it's too long and our predictions are not very serious, but I just like this kind of stuff... I only think that other version of such a poll is better, predicting only a winner, and then counting the votes in 1, 2, 3 order like in imaginary olympics series. More athletes to choose from in each poll though.

Voting in this one ends on Dec 9th, if anyone's interested.

I live in Kraków, at least on weekends, and I must say it is not much fun for me, these Euro sth i would prefer 1000k times too see here WCH in some fancy sports like athletics or aquatics. Not gonna happen sadly
