Oh well I can't even laugh at this because Netherlands aren't winning 14/14 ,the maximum could be 8 and realistic 6-7G. No US isn't dominating snowboard at all. Japan, Czech Republic, Austria were some of nations who won gold among those events I watched.And ice hockey is a team sport where I don't mind any 1 team dominating.

NearPup 2,167 Posted February 12, 2022 #168 Share Posted February 12, 2022 What an upset for Neise. Truly nothing can go wrong for the Germans on this track. This feels like those world championships that are held in Germany where the Germans are entirely unbeatable. Ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowerSaxony 205 Posted February 12, 2022 #169 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Amazing for Neise. Most people might say, just Germany again, but this is MAJOR surprise. Her only victories on senior level so far were 1 win in ICC and 1 win in EC. She struggled to fulfill the internal German standard (3 times TOP 8 in WC) and finally reached it at St. Moritz (8th rank) with her last possible chance. Then got Covid just 1 week before the Opening Ceremony. Btw amazing result for AUS and NED, those two countries together at the podium looks more like swimming or something ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you can say that right after Hermann lost bronze despite having a much better run than Bos. With the same material as Bos she would have won a medal. Also Taubitz threw away a safe gold. Germany very well could have two more medals in sliding sports at this point. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
