No chance to see a Russian in Paris, but pretty sure they will find a way to qualify them in hockey for Milano just to piss me off, as they have the good habit of doing...

...Team Goal is one Final, under normal circumstances should not be a big problem for Zapletalová, however she is just returning from a serious injury which caused her to miss the entire first half of the season, and started the preparation only last month, so very hard to predict anything, a eventual qualification for the Finals would be definitely great.... and the any last hope if there were any, is very likely gone, Emma returned after her long injury today and in her first race finished in Hungary dead last with a time over 59 seconds That is too cruel.. she was legitimatiely our biggest prospect and hope in this sport for a nice couple of years but well, what can we do... I sincerely hope she will find the way to retun to her previous seasons shape and level. Slovak athletics (and our sport in general) will really need it.

How on earth is it possible that we start in all possible relays ? I mean, It is not necessary to meet any qualification criterias or qualification standards for a country to field a relay at the continental championship. I do not know, for example, know how to swim or something like that ?

If we are not even going to medal in the very few sports we are supposed to do, than it is going to be a hard Paris 2024 for us. That is for sure. That K4 final was one Enormous disappointment, hopefully the boys will wake up and fix it next year, only 6 boats will qualify to the Olympics, Highest time to set the alarm.

SC Dnipro-1 will play its "Home" matches in Košice Th club informed via its instagram profile. Can not even remember last time a European club competition was played in this city, quite embarassing for the 2nd largest city of the country to not even play the national top division for years... (and yeah Košice is one of the 3 slovak clubs which played among others also the Champions League main round, but it was at the times of the Beckham´s, Zidane´s and Del Piero´s of that world) Obviously we lost all matches against Manchester Utd, Juventus and Feyenoord but scored that unforgettable first and only 2 goals in all history of Košice in the Champions League in Torino 3 years later the club bankrupted... Now Košice is stuck in 2nd slovak league for a couple of years

Not heard anything new on this subject recently sadly.

Well, we could have 2, but the Javelin Thrower was not invited, although the intended number of competitors was not reached. There will be 1 less starter in M Javelin Throw for a very stupid reason I am not going to comment, but you can read about it in slovak. https://sportnet.sme.sk/spravy/me-2022-v-atletike-slovenska-vyprava/ As you see, Our Team leader was not exactly happy to say the least 9 Team Relay members is probably the biggest scam I ever noticed in any of our sport federation, but hey, It is summer, everybody need some free vacation. Slovaks do love going to Croatia, but a week in Munich to watch a multisport event is not bad as well I guess

We are also sending 9 athletes in the 4x400 relay but only 4 will actually start in the Heats (whom 3 will be certainly the double starters) and since the chances to advance fro the heats are somewhere around 0, five athletes will have a nice free trip to Munich

Jeez, I need to find oil

Nice new video called "the Chosen one" from a Canadian fan just to keep the hype train alive during this boring summer time .. so everybody aboard ! choo-choo

and btw, off topic but, can you please tell them to be so kind and finally fix the video of the Beijing 2022 Ice hockey bronze medal match. Because if I´ll write to them, it will be a rather vulgar letter from an extremely unhappy, angry and pissed off human being, to say it politely. It would be really nice if they finally decided to take their shit together and release a video of my country´s greatest olympic success. Thank you in advance.
