Vojthas 947 Posted June 25, 2019 #531 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Iḿ watching the replay of yesterday and I think these words are too real to be true: "It is crucial, that the objectives of host cities are fully integrated with those of the Olympic Movement. And it all comes down to one word: sustainability." How did Stockholm lose after such a beloved-Bach-aimed words? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because those words, like all word that come out of Bach's mouth, are hollow and meaningless. He'll trade his integrity and the survival of the Olympic movement for glitz and glamour at every turn.

Vojthas, Function CR Lee and Olympian1010 1 2 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

De_Gambassi 896 Posted June 26, 2019 #535 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Not 2026 related, but this (the second point) could be massive and really a game changer for future bids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,740 Posted June 27, 2019 #536 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) and now it's time to start speculating about possible new sports/events which could/should be added to the 2026 Winter Games schedule... some Italian media have already started dreaming of Natural Track Luge (we can fairly say "it's now or never"...if there's a remote chance to see this discipline at the Olympic Games, this is certainly at the Italian Games), Ski Mountaineering and Ice Climbing...
