  1. Surprised to not see South Yemen competing...then I realized they competed at the Olympics only once in 1988, but still strange they missed to send anyone to the games organized by the "beloved"... cough..."savior" anyway, even more surprised to realize that we don´t have the flag of Yemen People´s Democratic Republic in totallympics

  6. Ben Jipcho (Athletics) 1972 Munich 3000m Steeple Silver. And first ever pace runner at the Olympics in Mexico City 1968 he after a "team agreement" sacrified himself in the 1500m, Kenya won its first ever Olympics gold, Kipchoge Keino profited from his high pace

  8. So welcome to the Hockey planet Seattle Kraken
  9. 40 years ago the 19th July 1980 started the Moscow 1980 Olympics Famous also due to the boycott of the so-called western world Former Czechoslovakia as a one of the most "devoted" ex-USSR satelite state send a huge delegation of 211 athletes (the biggest in history 163+48) including also the biggest amount of Slovak athletes in the history of TCH olympic appearances (49 = 30+19) Since the games were ultra important for the USSR they were kinda highly followed in the former Czechoslovakia as well. But the results were not very satisfying and the result of "our" delegation was considered as failure, especially because from the 14 medals we won only 2 golds. (the legendary Ota Zaremba in Weightlifting andTCH football team) this was and is the only summer olympics team sport gold medal Czechoslovakia ever won and until Nagano 1998 Czech Rep. Ice Hockey triumph the only Olympic team sport gold for athletes from both Czechos-slovakian parts. Czechoslovakia Football Team. Gold medalist of Moscow 1980 tournament, the squad included 2 slovaks - the GK Stanislav Seman (First from the left in the top row) who played all 6 matches and conceeded only 1 goal and midfield player František Kunzo (4th from left in top row) The only gold medal Czechoslovakia won in any Olympic team sports during its existence. and in the category of the most WTF random apparences, Czechoslovakia Womens Field Hockey team who competed in Moscow and won silver losing only to the gold medalist Zimbabwe. A sport that basically inexistant in the country received a wild card because of many returning quotas from boycotting NOC´s arrived and won inexplicable silver (Denmark football EURO 1992 prequel lol) 3 Slovak girls were part of the team. Viera Podhányiová (the left GK in the front row), Iveta Šranková and Alena Kyselicová (both from the right in the second row)

  14. in the category of the most random things going on TV right now...the Czech TV sport is jumping to another limit believe it or not but i was just watching the semifials of the 100m in Barcelona 1992 with a returning certain Ben Johnson finishing dead last in his semifinal
  15. I´m fine with at least 1 country from the top west wish to boycot the ice hockey tournament (and if possible one of USA, CAN, FIN, SWE, CZE, GER, SUI or even RUS if they want) yeah, I I do not do differences
