Re: 37th National games, Goa
What is this obsession with Pakistan? Constantly looking into the gutter makes most people want to puke. If you enjoy it, more power to you. 😀 Wow! So much venom for pointing out the one thing bug country got right in its sports while lamenting about India being such an underperformer in the one sp...

Re: 37th National games, Goa
Shame that our Volleyball is disorganized even in National games. There is a reason Pak volleyball does better than India as of now. Figured they have a Brazilian coach from their sports forum. Just imagine bug nation hired a decent coach even when its economy is in tatters. https://ppforum.pakpassi...

Re: Indian Education System
So you have to give people something. Either pay. Or a fantastic opportunity to make something great. Or some combination of the two and various other things.

Re: Paris Olympics 2024
^^ The only medal in weightlifting we can hope from Mirabai is doubtful. She was the best in clean & Jerk at Tokyo with a lift of 115 Kg but her snatch of 87Kg was poor. The Thai who got bronze at Asiad is younger than Mira lifted 199Kg (90 + 109) at Asiad with the possibility of improving furt...

Re: Paris Olympics 2024
^^ Thanks for the info about TT having team event (of which doubles is one match) rather than plain doubles. So a country needs depth to get medal in team events and that is something a big country like India can aspire for if not in this Olympics then in future.

Re: Paris Olympics 2024
The jokers from Gracenote so far haven't published a full virtual medal table this year like they did in the past 5 Olympics or so. They published only Top-20 this time so far. At Tokyo 100 days before the games they projected 17 medals (4G, 5S, 8B) for us. I think this time around finally they real...

Re: 19th Asian games India medal tally
We all relied on this thread for medal count by sport. But keeping track of 100 + medals over 2 weeks on a daily basis was no mean undertaking. Would like to appreciate the effort of Sameer for this thread. Thanks a lot Sameer!

Re: 19th Asian Games Hangzhou 2023
^^ More analysis from above table India has improved in over all medal tally, but concerning thing is it may have regressed at Olympic level in the sports (other than shooting) that we usually get medals. I think ONLY golds at Asian games matter to even expect a bronze or better at Olympic level. In...

Re: 19th Asian Games Hangzhou 2023
so we can now safely assume a Gold... 32-29... done and dusted... let the ethics conversation go on... Actually the online scoreboard says 33-29. So if we got 4-1 at 28-28 to go to 32-29, we scored one point in the remaining time. If the officials had given 1-1 instead of 4-1, we would have STILL w...
