If you're feeling nostalgic... http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x14f5a5_ç«¶æŠ€ä¼šå ´ç´¹ä»‹æ˜ åƒ-英語版-introducing-tokyo-2020-venues_sport

Is this really the torch for Lillehammer 2016? It's very obviously Toronto's Pan Am torch... http://i.imgur.com/cf2jnCv.jpg

Winter YOGs torch does always similiar to an existing torch for example Innsbruck 2012's torch is similiar to torch used in Singapore 2010
-
That is EXACTLY like the Toronto one!!!
-
Maybe that's just an advertisement and they didn't design the real one yet? The Lillehammer real Olympic torch is my favorite EVER,

2 years since Tokyo was chosen as host city for the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games! In a way, we've come full circle and are back where we started, progress wise. I wonder how the other venues are going, since they seem to be invisible...
-
Well at least that's over. A blip in Olympic history. Hopefully from now on it's better...
-
Less than 4.5 hours until presentations start! I hope the Q&A doesn't hurt the bids as it can...

In gym basketball I'm super bad but every once in a while I make a sick half court shot #ballislife #Eballa

Does anyone know where I can find the full Closing Ceremony from Sochi? It doesn't seem to be anywhere...

Appears that Brasilia will give up the 2019 Universiade. http://tinyurl.com/oh2uaxj
-
Yes. Victor Mata said it 24/12. What city will be the replacement host??
-
What politicians made with the finances of Brasilia is a crime...
Secondly, to pay 23 million Euros just to get the right of hosting the event seems too much to me. Indeed, Brasilia was a sole candidate. I do think this must be rethink.
And, finally, Rio could host it, since most of the structure from Olympics will be there in 2019.
But if Rio have to pay 23 million Euros to have it, leave the Universiad to other country.
-
I think Brasilia (and Brazil) is much better with more megaevents after 2016. The Universiades of Shenzhen and Kazan were just too huge to a city with such tight and costly building regulations as Brasilia. Plus, the Federal District government is a mess!

JBA (Japan Basketball Association) was suspended by FIBA! http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/english/news/20141126_41.html

The wording here makes it seem like they forgot Tokyo did this before them. Or do they mean the first to be awarded at the same time? http://imgur.com/vK1SHHc

Rome did it too, and Toronto hosted when Montreal had the OG.

"The 1988 Summer Paralympics were the first Paralympics in 24 years to take place in the same city as the Olympic Games. They took place in Seoul, South Korea. This was the first time the term 'Paralympic' came into official use."

The Asian Games medal table is the same every time these days. You have Japan and Korea fighting out for second place, the rest of the countries trying to get enough medals to be in the top 10, and China bein china and getting 50% of the medals

Can't believe it's almost been a year since Tokyo won the 2020 games. It feels like it was just yesterday! I heard they're gonna release the logo around 2020 days to go which is pretty sweet imo

"There is a tie between Madrid and Istanbul..." I thought Tokyo eliminated with zero votes.
-
@phandrosis.The rumor is quite reliable.Our committee started to collect emblems and deadline is end of Dec.So I believe the logo will be released having exactly 2020 days to go.
