Either their favorites don't compete anymore, or someone who they don't like starts dominating. It's not because of the disciplines, the schedules or the procedures. If there is no one you are invested in, it's very hard to get behind the race. Like you said, you were most interested in the Lukas Bauer era. Because you were growing up with him, and he is czech and he was winning. It's easy when things align in such a perfect way to be hooked up in the race every year. If he was competing in presented day, you probably wouldn't mind the sprints and Mass starts that much. This is so much true for me. If i look 10 years in the past, football, tennis and F1 were my top 3 sports all the time. Now those three are almost completely ignored by me and pretty much reduced to checking the scores and highlights here and there. If this was true for me, I'd watch a whole lot less cross-country skiing, Nordic combined, skeleton and bobsleigh (to name just a few) 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!

I meant, after they changed the site it´s now impossible to post the results in our results portal. I think I´ve already explained it to you once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, their results pages are excellent, very clear and have nation codes instead of flags (so you can use Ctrl + F), a link is really more than enough instead of doing double work 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!

Monzanator 3,594 Posted December 30, 2019 #44 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Stumbled upon the results sheet when browsing channels. 5 Norwegians inside Top 7. I see the National Championship drill is doing fine and well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,552 Posted December 30, 2019 #45 Share Posted December 30, 2019 We can make fun of it all we want though, so far this year's Tour de Ski has already provided probably the finish (at least in terms of sprint) of the season in cross-country skiing.
