  1. European Championships 2012

    THIS is how REAL MEN rage: [/video] :D
  2. Article: Record holder Timo Boll wins the European Championships for the 6th time! (VIDEO)

    I miss the good old days when these tournaments had stiff competition. Waldner, Saive, Primorac, Rosskopf, Gatien, Persson... There was no such thing as "lonely at the top". Everyone had a shot at the title, and that made it more thrilling, IMO. Timo Boll is like Ussain Bolt of European TT...

  4. European Championships 2012

    He pulled that sh*t even at old age, playing in the senior tour. It's a part of his public persona, so he wears it.
  5. Why does one become a chopper?

    That's pretty much what it all comes down to. Every truly successful person in history has been a risk taker. It's all about calculated risk. You don't become a champion by playing it safe, it just doesn't happen. I think there's a certain amount of risk behind every major win in one's career or...
  6. European Championships 2012

    I read somewhere that Bjorn Borg did it also at young age, but then got suspended by his own club and used the time for some soul searching. Came out of it a different person, calm, serious, calculated. He didn't become a true tennis giant before dealing with his temper. Jonnie Mack and Goran...
  7. European Championships 2012

    Really? When? :eek: NHF
  8. European Championships 2012

    It's time for Primorac to retire. Some people already have grandkids at his age. BTW, Gaćina eliminated Freitas in seven sets. Must have been epic.
  9. Please sign today for a great cause for Table Tennis

    Wait, this petition is meant for the IOC? Good luck! All these associations (FIFA, UEFA, FIA) have their fair share of corruption, and I don't think IOC is any better.
  10. Michael Maze: “I am here to win the European Championships on home soil!”

    Oh boy, did it backfire, of what? :o
  11. Why does one become a chopper?

    I suppose some of you are defensive players around here? How and why did you become one? I remember a guy from my old club back in the day telling me he had no choice, he never managed to improve his poor backhand and his coach made the decision for him. But the reality is, choppers rarely...
  12. European Championships 2012

    Damn shame. How the hell does one lose seven points in a row before the home crowd, after coming back from 0:3 to 2:3? He should have had an immense psychological advantage at that point, maximum confidence. Too bad. Ah well, I hope Samsonov does good. But I have a feeling we're gonna have...
  13. European Championships 2012

    Looks possible. He finally won a game, but just barely. Down 1-3, and doesn't seem to be nowhere near the top of his game. Missing A LOT of "easy" shots. Too much. I hope he gets through this, but I'm not convinced he will. Down 3-6 in game 5, Fegerl looking strong. EDIT: It's 2:3 now! This...
  14. European Championships 2012

    Looks like Maze may be cracking under the home turf pressure. 3-0 up in game 2, suddenly 4-10 down and ending up losing 7-11. GET YOUR SH** TOGETER, MICHAEL!
  15. European Championships 2012

    Doesn't look good for Maze right now. He doesn't seem to be in it 100%, very nervous. Perhaps the home crowd will lift him.
  16. European Championships 2012

    Liam Pitchford styling all over Quentin Robinot. :D EDIT: Wow, I must have seriously jinxed him or something. He was up 8:4 in game 2, only to lose it 11:8. :eek:
  17. Just say no to the new poly ball. Petition

    Wait, it cannot be recycled? I didn't know that.
  18. European Championships 2012

    Allan Bentsen is badass! :cool:
