About This Club

A place to chat all things American NOCs
  1. What's new in this club
  2. Writing this as I'm watching the OC, having taped it while at work. All right...buckle up for the first big day! (Spoiled since it's a weekend...will be a rude back to work on Monday when I can't watch most of the day..) Here's my to-watch schedule: (all times EST) 05:30 - M Downhill 07:00 - W Skiathlon 08:35 - XD Curling vs. - biggest match so far! Check in with W 3000m (though no athletes) at 10:00 and W Hockey vs. at 10:40. Also check in with M Luge and W Ski Jumping 13:05 - XD Curling vs. (should be easy, hopefully) Also flip between 13:30 - M Big Air SBD, 13:45 Team Figure Skating (Men's - Ilia), and final Ski jumping at 13:57 16:05 - Team Figure Skating - Free Dance (Start list TBD)
  3. And in their second draw, an 8-1 win over ! I sadly missed the game against live, but I've caught all of the others as they were happening. Very impressed with the accuracy so far, I believe both are among the leaders in the tournament so far in accuracy ratings. Set up very well to reach the medal rounds! Very big draw against tomorrow.
  4. One small complaint I have is I thought we had a poor showing in the snowboard big air qualifying. Wish we had one more American in the final. Other than that, phenomenal start to the Olympics.
  5. I mean, can't complain about our progress so far... On top of the leaderboard in figure skating, undefeated in curling so far, won our hockey game, Vonn made it down and had other good showings by Johnson and Wiles...let's go!
  6. Good start in the team event. Needed a top 5 finish by Kam/O'Shea and they got it. Could've even gotten 4th if they didn't make that big mistake.
  7. Well, she made it down at 7:15 am. She was leading until the last section of the course.
  8. And it is Malinin who will do the M FS. 10 Points for C&B!
  9. I woke up this morning, fulling expecting to see an L for us...but nope! 7-5 over ! Go Team K/Cor(e)y!
  10. A great day for ! We won both curling matches and our W hockey match. Oliver Martin is into the finals for Big Air Snowboard. Tomorrow is the best day...OC! But also... Figure Skating - We get the first three rounds of the team event (Dance, Pairs, and Women's) Curling - Games vs. and (The Canada looks to be our toughest, considering how they manhandled today)
  11. I do remember that in 2024, I had to wait until after the Olympics to get certain things on world feed on the Olympics official site, as only the USA broadcast was up. (Much prefer the world feed...)
  12. I am fast concluding that on Peacock, if an event is shown live on NBC or USA, Peacock is not giving access to the World feed. This is different than my recollection from 22 and 24, where you could have access to either. It looks to be similar on CBC Gem - They have Canadian announcers, but no commercials, on the SB Big Air.
  13. Vonn on the schedule for the training run at 5:30 in the morning, starting 9th. :-/ We'll see!
  14. Start lists up for the first three rounds: https://www.olympics.com/en/milano-cortina-2026/results/fsk/te/x/team--------------/qual/0004dc--/result Chock & Bates Kam & O'Shea Alysa Liu
  15. Great performance by . Dominant win over . 2-0 after their first day of competition!!
  16. Just finished watching the replay of the match. Made some mistakes early on, especially in the 2nd end. We capitalized on multiple Norway mistakes in the 8th end to get the steal. Plenty of room for improvement for USA, but good to start with a win!
  17. Nice way to wake up, realizing we won our first XD match! 8-6 vs. It was tied 6-6 in the 7th, they had hammer, and we still stole two in the last end.
  18. Today, we've got two curling matches with Team Cory/Korey ( then ), then Women's ice hockey vs later this morning. Go Team USA!
  19. Wondering if perhaps Breezy or someone else can combine with Mikaela to still pull off Gold in the combined. (Mikaela's margins are pretty ridiculous, so hopefully so.)
  20. Probably not Vonn anymore, unfortunately
  21. While I know everyone is focused on the Winter Olympics now, there's going to be a Flag Football match vs. tomorrow night (Thursday) at 7:00 Eastern. Last year, the championship match got rained out, I believe, so we were officially co-champions...so this will unofficially determine the winner. Stream it here.
  22. His mother did it in 1972. I watched her gold medal run live, still one of the great Olympic moments I’ve seen. I’d go wild if RCS wins gold this time. After his silver medal 4 years ago, NBC interviewed his mother from her home. This time, I’d hope she’d be there in person.
  23. Too bad training runs aren't official RCS finished first in the M downhill training run today. (But I know they don't mean anything, people aren't giving their all, etc.) RCS is a dark horse...hope he can steal one away when the time comes!¡!
