    which 2 major powers are still technically at war after the 3/4 century since the hostilities stopped ? not a big news for some - russia and japan...they never signed a peace treaty, b/c japan demands 4 islands occupied by russia in the wake of them defeating japan. one side calls them the...

    Nordic Skiing/Biathlon Thread

    may be bavaria does, but where did you see the anti norwegian bias there ? he just cheered for an athlete, perhaps in a bit subjective way.. he said exactly zero about the french, finnish, swedish or norwgians. the comparison btwn klaebo and bolshu is fun, but it will always come on the side...

    Nordic Skiing/Biathlon Thread

    the 10K just started...i find it very interesting how johaug will performorm after missing the tds. all the girls that could have provided the competition are at the start line. oestberg looks the closest, but i personally hope that ebba or nepreyeva push therese. kalla ? may be, if it was a...

    Re: bolshunov just made a fool out of you (and 4 norwegians asthmatics to boot). nepryeva also made you look like a fool misreading bad sports luck in a contact sprint for insulting the athletes. :rolleyes:

    Nordic Skiing/Biathlon Thread

    the ladies otepaa quals just over. few surprises...it looks to be another swedish podium in the final, with falla or nepryava wedging in. falla more likely, but a high 4th for a slow to crank up to speed russian is very good. all 6 swedish girls are in top 16 with 5 in top 8...if that is not a...

    WADA Getting Ready to Reinstate Russia

    i was only highlighting your stubborn clinging to a position that's obviously outdated and thus worthless. time and evidence was contributed to the explanation. but you prefer to cut and paste links all over that you seem neither read nor understand.... perhaps you are just an incurable...

    WADA Getting Ready to Reinstate Russia

    as pointed in my post above your quote is outdated and therefore worthless. why? b/c there was a later statement by the wada director Niggli about what would constitute wada action. also, apparently, since as we type there is a 3-man team working in moscow (hellow, it is 17 January, not 31...

    Moderators

    can't contribute to the opinion re. the 'abuse' word usage in reference to a particular ban. you sound reasonable red arguing the 'invisible offense' , but unless we had a public record, suspecting a mod in impropriety has as much gravity - at it's most stringent to a mod - as suspecting...

    Re: :lol: and you have the arrogance to whine about being called a sparky ? calling someone's words who simply did not agree 'vomiting'. sparky, btw, dont take the tag too seriously, it's just a common reference to someone who can not accept the elementary, obvious things. not to fall for your...
