Legend.
i really wanted to see him in a WC match against Firouzja.
By DiPro Go To Postwait why.He's lost interest and motivation. Has nothing to gain. He supposedly would have been intrigued and played if Alireza had won the candidates. But it ended up being Ian again, and it sounds like Magnus is just bored.
So Ding Liren will play Ian instead for the title. Not sure how much weight that holds now considering everyone quite confidently can say Magnus is the best.

Hikaru is probably punching a wall right now considering he was an easy draw away from finishing second and would now be playing for the WCC.

people they trained with, people that saw first-hand the hard work and dedication that went into winning

By FortuneFaded Go To PostWorld Athletics Championship starts today. 200m in both mens and womens looks to be competitive this season with some fast times.I did call it.
By FortuneFaded Go To PostLyles wins 200m with personal best 19.31, beats Michael Johnson's old record.Whoa
By FortuneFaded Go To PostWhy are you like this?I blame the gene pool. And it was indeed an awesome race.
What's next to look forward too? Don't think Mondo has any competition in the pole vault so probably will skip it.
McLaughlin just destroyed her own world record in the 400m hurdles. The old record was 51.41. She just ran 50.68.
Watching the women's 5000m final. Seconds after passing the finishing line, a random spectator stormed the track and picked up a couple of medalists in celebration before security dragged him away.

Women’s 100m hurdles world record just got smashed by Nigerian Tobi Amusan in the semi-finals.
Fastest times of all-time
Fastest times of all-time
And Amusan wins the final in 12.06 (even with a bad start) but there was too much wind for it to be a new world record
and unsurprisingly, he wins gold.

The English Rugby Union has decided that they'll be the next to discriminate against trans people. For a sport that prides itself on inclusion this is remarkably stupid.
Probably going to have a trans league at this point though there are hardly enough trans people to warrant one. Doubt female athletes want to compete against trans females.
By Lunatic Go To PostProbably going to have a trans league at this point though there are hardly enough trans people to warrant one. Doubt female athletes want to compete against trans females.I don't think most care since there isn't an athletic advantage. There is often a disadvantage in hormones and such due to their treatments.
When’s the NBA season
Guyana fuckin choked away this CPL season. Closed out the season with like 4 straight incredible wins and then came out looking like shit in the qualifiers
None of my teams ever win anything.
Need to just be a bandwagon fan from now on

And the award for worst excuse goes to….
New Zealand runner Zane Robertson has been banned for eight years following a positive test for erythropoietin (EPO) and "providing false documentation".
The 33-year-old, who won 5,000m bronze at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, was caught after being tested at the 2022 Great Manchester Run.
He claimed he was given EPO in Kenya, where he trains, when trying to get a Covid-19 vaccination.
However, the medical facility in Kenya did not support Robertson's claim.
