  1. Yeah He really deserves that quota honestly. I was bummed when he missed out at the Pan American Games, so I’m glad he got it done here.
  2. Yeah NASCAR overshadows the Indy 500 in the US. Most people have heard of the Indy 500, Monaco Grand Prix, and LeMans 24. Sebring 12 and Daytona 24 are a big deal in the US. Sebring 24 seems awfully long
  3. It’s weird to see Indy on here as the “most important”. It’s maybe in top 5 of most important races in the US. I do agree it definitely is up there though, but I’d still say LeMans is the crown jewel of autosport. I think if we were to rank by type, it would look like this Endurance: LeMans 24 Rally: Dakar Open-Wheel: Monaco/Indy Stockcar: Daytona 500 Supercar: Bathurst 100 Moto: Isle Man TT
  4. Yes, it’s a good thing the Olympics are for everyone.
  5. Right, but we also will get to see outside of Rugby, Athletics, and Swimming
  6. That’s honestly a pretty insulting statement. It’s not really true, and it seems a bit unfair to disqualify the athletic ability required to compete at this level. I don’t go around saying “pants that show you bulge, shorts stuck to your ass, my grandpa can go that speed” when talking about road cycling.
  7. Qualification Criteria for the 2021 Jeux De La Francophonie: https://www.jeux.francophonie.org/sites/default/files/public/images_publiques/fichiers_associes/reglementation-web.pdf
  8. A lot more prize money on offer (Plus, the X Games mean more than some little World Cup stop). World Cup will also be in Mammoth next week, so even more incentive to make the early trip.
  9. Probably in case or hadn’t won a quota already. They are two of the best sailing nations.
  10. I’m glad the federation lets people use this, but it’s not really a great resource then. The amount of federations lacking good results areas is appalling. I’ve been able to save virtually nothing from the African Games this year. I place the majority of the blame on the organizers, but it would be nice of the IFs could fill that gap
  11. I’m curious as to you guys think it the most important race in the world? I’d say LeMans personally. The other “important” races would be Daytona 24, Daytona 500, Sebring 12, Bathurst 12, Monaco Grand Prix, Indy 500, Isle Of Man TT, Dakar Rally, V8 1000 (forget the name of the track).
  12. Big Air is most certainly Medlova’s best chance for a medal in Beijing. She needs to be a bit more clean, and figure a way to up her difficulty again.
  13. Yeah this one was in Barstow. 2 seconds max. Just a quick, subtle jolt.
  14. Just felt a little earthquake, 4.5 is what I’m hearing.
  15. Ford was the big loss. I didn’t know they had plans to pull out. That will hurt the WEC too. Nissan isn’t too much of a loss since they most help privateer teams, and those teams can just find a different manufacturer. I believe (last I read) that Nissan (and potential Ford) are working on the new Hypercars for the WEC.
  16. I really wish the Chinese government wasn’t so oppressive. There’s so much they actually do right (of course there’s also an insane amount of things they do wrong). I’ve been super impressed with how they’ve handled this outbreak.
  17. I credit sevens for really opening up the American market to Rugby. I’d say it’s gotten more popular since it was added to the Olympics.
  18. Is there away to get a PDF version of this? I would it find incredibly helpful: https://bwf.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/draw.aspx?id=0DFA4B45-214F-4AC6-AADA-7055CE1186BF&draw=1
  19. I thought it looked insanely small . That’s really weird since IMSA is well established now, and the economy isn’t shit. I have no clue why there’s less entries. Hopefully this isn’t a sign to come for LeMans this year.
  20. The virus has not been confirmed in Saudi Arabia last time I checked
  21. I’m seriously looking into doing trivia now. So, I would like to know the following: A) Just post quizzes to the website, they can be taken whenever, and scores are more for personal satisfaction more than anything B) Live Trivia following to the Lausanne 2020 model, with a general ranking of scores. C) You have a different idea that you want me to try. I know I already kind of polled everyone on this, but I want to make sure we chose the right format so people actual play along.
  22. Yeah where’d he go off to? He’s probably the best windsurfer in Pan America (even if his Pan Am performance didn’t reflect that)
