Commentator suggested that the others should just lock Shiffrin in a hotel room and throw away the key. In his usual toneless voice, making it sound psychopathic.

Yea the summer Olympics have much more wtf and boring sports than the Winter ones. The Winter Olympics are much more exciting to watch.

I'm blaming them...

I've have thought he would be banned for longer than 8 months. 8 years seems fair.

Cool, looks like threatening everyone with nuclear weapon gives you free quotas. I bet they'll be allowed to enter as many athletes at they want.

None. Let's make another Summer Olympic Games and we're set.

The Winter Olympics are much more exciting to watch.

Yeah, don't forget that skier defeated Hirsher in the parallel event! It's a wild card event.

Had a three hour rehearsal today, everything is starting to look pretty well, apart from me being very sick + voice issues. Anyways, I'm very anxious, but hopeful at the same time, I really want to make it to the second round

He actually raised his voice by about 2 decibels when Truppe took the lead!

Yes, the exact same athletes are competing in Slopestyle and Big Air (for all countries, not just Canada). Qualification is based on the combined ranking of both events.

Qualification is the same for both.

Well... stilll, we played surprisingly decent.

Not that Canadians are biased

Срећан рођендан Републико Српска. И да ускоро сви будемо под једном заставом како и треба да буде

Puerto Rican male skeleton racer managed to be 10+ seconds slower than Nigerian female athlete in all of the training runs in Lake Placid.

Then again, that's exactly the thing I read a lot during the Summer Olympics as well (at least on the Dutch forums), mostly during the few minutes there's some TV attention for the likes of synchronized swimming, trampolining, rhythmic gymnastics, taekwondo (and next time definitely karate as well) or that wrestling form where they start in sort of a doggy style position It is indeed completely about which sports have at least a tiny bit of interest in your country or not. I was serious as well by the way, the Winter Olympics being gone (and so automatically the competitions in those sports gradually decreasing) would absolutely shatter me more than anything in my life (at least until now, my life has not been bad so far, I must admit, but still) (same goes for losing the Summer Olympics btw)

Thanks. I thought was a low penalty for him. The original report has been corrected to 8 years now too I see.

Good idea, that simplifies finding your own post back and make adjustments. The list of posts is now at the bottom of the first post in both threads.

Yeah, we need to get to Chamonix. Right now.

Happy birthday Dan

This is awesome.

Marie Dorin-Habert will retire at the end of the season (link of the article in French: https://www.lequipe.fr/Biathlon/Actualites/Marie-dorin-arretera-sa-carriere-a-la-fin-de-la-saison-je-ne-suis-pas-au-niveau/865255)

Sadly no points for here

Iran is ready for what ? this is funny how people/foreign media think something big is happening in Iran, this is not even 5% of what happened in 2009, 3 millions were at the streets of Tehran at the time and yet the regime survived that. yeah people are not happy about so many things here but most of the protests are about the financial situations . nothing big is going to happen. personally I wish to see regime change in Iran in my life time (only peacefully though) but this is not going to happen, I lost hope on that long time ago.
