    Not being horrible is not equal to hasn't been a problem for Serbia. Her sets are way too incosistent, different tempo and lenght everytime (especially to zone 2), she is so late to the ball, which slows down the game and allows the opposing block to adjust better, without excessive variations and surprises. She simply does not make a difference with her game, for a team with Serbia's ambitions, mediocre to solid performance is not enough.

    Oh, I agree that her general level is not good enough and Drca is a far better setter. All I meant was this is the level we expect from her and by her usual standards she’s not been bad today. It’s been a bad team performance, she’s undoubtedly part of that but so is everybody else.

    I thought noone is watching the World athletics :lol:


    Mclaughlin is a beast! I wonder if ever she transitions to 400m if she would also break the WR. Her flat speed is insane.

    The first difficult task would be to beat Miller-Uibo who has been winning the 400 flat easily at the recent major championships, she only lost in Doha 2019 to the now-questionable time from Salwa Eid Nasser.


    Koch’s record has stood for almost 40 years and nobody has ever got near it. But McLaughlin is obviously a ridiculous talent who took 400mH to a completely different level, so it could be possible.

    Hi. I’m very sorry, I think your email was put in the spam folder and I completely missed it. Could you send another email to that address just to confirm your username? I will reply to you with a new password.


    Sorry again for the inconvenience.

    NATO has started to loose its appeal in recent years: Macron calling NATO brain-dead, Germany improving its relationships with Russia with expansion of Nord Stream 2, none of NATO countries spending as much military expenses as USA asks from them etc. These all were too concerning for USA, that's why they needed to create a common enemy again. By triggering Russia by interfering Ukraine's internal affairs, supporting the coup, offering to Ukraine NATO memberships (although USA promised that he wouldn't expand in neighboring countries of Russia in previous international agreements)

    This theory makes some sense and could have happened as both the USA and Russia would love to extent their sphere of influence as far as possible but I’ve seen little evidence to actually support it, so it’s still just a theory. I’d say there’s more evidence that Russia was the one interfering in Ukraine’s internal affairs but perhaps the US is just more subtle about it.


    I’m interested to know what the US actually did to support the revolution (not a coup). Again, I’m not saying it didn’t happen but we can only speculate about the sneaky things they and their CIA get up to. Maybe I can only see the tip of the iceberg but until someone shows me some decent evidence that there’s more to it, I don’t see the point in guessing at what might be underneath.

    Putin details the transgressions of the West to other countries and Russia, the views coming from no less than the Russian president himself. Not sure if this speech/interview was reported anywhere in Western mainstream media.

    He’s right in a lot of what he says here but the fact that the US (and some NATO allies) did terrible things in other countries isn’t at all a justification for Russia to do the same to Ukraine. He talks about broken promises from NATO but the biggest broken promise I see is the Budapest Memorandum.


    What’s been happening in the Donbas is horrible and Ukraine isn’t blameless in that conflict but to call it “genocide” is, as far as I can tell, totally incorrect. Similarly, although I agree that Ukraine has an issue with right-wing extremism, to act like “Nazis” are running the country is a blatant falsehood and sounds like a man looking for excuses.


    The idea that NATO is a threat to the very existence of the Russian state - again, I don’t see it. In fact, by attacking neighbouring countries, Putin is actually encouraging NATO expansion as other countries like Sweden and Finland seek security. Anyway, what is NATO actually going to do to Russia? If this invasion has proved anything it’s that NATO is terrified of a military conflict with Russia, though that was obvious anyway.


    So, while I do think there’s a large amount of hypocrisy going on in the West right now and don’t doubt that much of the media coverage I get has been biased against Russia, I still fail to see anything approaching a real justification for this invasion.

    There's not email to activate for my account and nothing in spam folder even after requesting activation email several times. Please help.

    Sorry about the problem and the delay in responding to this post. Your account is now activated though, have fun!

    If Russia were to put missiles in Mexico, how do you think USA will react? The current government in Kyiv was installed with the backing of US/NATO. Putin has sent the Chechens for the head of Zelensky and co who are traitors of the worst kind.

    How are Zelensky and co “traitors of the worst kind”? I’m genuinely asking here, I don’t pretend to be an expert and agree the Western media is largely biased so I’m interested in alternative takes.
