  1. I’ll probably take a bit of break for the next week or so, maybe watch a few things I missed from Beijing or Tokyo, and then get ready for the Winter Paralympics.
  2. I feel like this part could have been streamlined a little more. It’s kind of awkward just watching mull about for minutes on end.
  3. It’s especially odd from him, since he provides commentary/analysis for two sports (Alpine Skiing, Cycling) where both countries have prominent, well-known athletes.
  4. Woke up to the news. Congrats to @hckošice we all know much this means to you and the country
  5. Bart Swings now has a gold medal at the Winter Olympics and the World Games. I’d imagine that’s not a particularly common combination. I’d have to do more research I don’t have time for to find out unfortunately. I’m just happy to see another one of the good guys (inline skaters) win
  6. Except those still have better formats. You can actually go off the front or contest intermediate sprints and win the race still.
  7. Qazaqstan is the endonym, while Kazakhstan is the exonym (I think). Basically, Qazaqstan is the commonly used internal name for the country, while Kazakhstan is the commonly used external for the country. I think like Czechia, Eswatini, Cabo Verde, and Côte d’Ivoire, Qazaqstan is trying to get the international community to use the name used more commonly by those living in the country.
  8. I’d like to see him stick around for another cycle, but if this is his last race, what a way to finish
  9. Yeah, I don’t think the IOC counts them, so Rinaldi has the best official result at the Olympic Games for Monaco.
  10. It’s second best performance at the Olympic Games. Julien Médécin won a bronze in architecture in 1924.
  11. Interesting to read the comments of Alysa Liu’s father on the topic. Liu is another skater that graduated to the international stage at a young age. (There’s more comments from him if you click the thread)
  12. Meagan Duhamel is suggesting an athlete boycott of the women’s singles.
  13. I think the pursuits are okay as they are unique to biathlon, so at least they offer something different from the rest of the program. That said, I agree with the popular criticism of them. My suggestion: 5km Mass Start Sprint (5 1km loops, 4 shooting rounds). Contested with two semifinals of 60 athletes (top 60 from Sprint), and final of 30 athletes.
  14. Nico had a new favorite toy I’m so happy that Meyers-Taylor managed to get a medal after all she’s been through this season.
