Is this the best Olympic alpine skiing race in history in terms of drama?

Hard to say, I don't remember the drama in the many decades before I was born, but I guess it's very close :p

The 1994 slalom was the best. Tomba sitting in 1st place from 15th after the first run and everyone messing up until Stangassinger held on by 0,08 IIRC. That was pure drama. Ledecka was just 90 seconds of it ;)

so difficult for Veith when you are sure of gold, you have it in your mind, messages from The President....and suddenly you`re second, psychologically it`s obvious she was shocked, i understand this

I understand it, too. And given her history of injury, it would have been great if she had won. But sorry, this is even better.

I think Lara was the most disappointed one :( 

 

Considering how she was acting when at 2nd and 3rd place, I don’t think she can be even more disappointed.

What?!? Ledecka won, I'm shocked :yikes:

Me too! What the fuck? I just looked at the results and couldn't believe it, greatest winter sports talent ever? It's ABSOLUTELY INSANE to be so good in two very different sports + women's super-g is a very competitive discipline, so if she also wins the PGS, this will easily be among top 5 olympic performances every.

Best day for czech sport in a very long time? Did czech tv even broadcast this?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

    • I can finally piggyback off @vinipereira predictions to deliver my own    I'll be honest. I was rather busy during most of the awards season, so I wasn't able to see as much as I wanted to, or normally would have been able to. Therefore, I'm relying heavily on pundit predictions and general feel this time around.     If there was a category for best poster artwork, my nominees would be: Bugonia, Eddington, Dracula, The Sound of Falling, Sirāt   I'd give best animal acting to Pipa from Sirāt   And my favorite scenes from the year are... Kids getting bewitched, Weapons Gladys getting her just desserts, Weapons Car chase, One Battle After Another I Lied To You, Sinners Turn that shit up, Sirāt Playing with arrows, The Love That Remains Street dance, The Life of Chuck Cold open, Warfare Final scene, The Plague Ship prayer, The Testament of Ann Lee
    • The article literally corrects other ones claiming it will be a case. Trump isn't and won't banned.

    • Yeah same story. Good for Venezuela. 
    • Btw I highly recommend the short film 'Butterfly' which has a story related to the Olympics.  
    • Once again here I am with my annual Oscar predictions post. Last year I predicted 13/23 winners which was my worst results ever by far. For the second consecutive year Brazil is nominated so I'm hoping that 'The Secret Agent' wins something, especially because it's a film from my home state. I watched 34 out of the 35 feature films (only 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' missing) and all 15 short films nominated, so I leave a personal ranking of all the categories.   ["will win" is my prediction / "could win", my alternate prediction / "should win", my personal ranking / "shoud have been nominated", a way to remember other notable work].    
    • I don't know how soon that'll be though... and until then not holding my breath. Really wanted to see Caissie crushing balls at the Olympics, he deserved it for his play this tournament, and now he might not get the opportunity to. He's still young, but this will probably be Canada's best chance, and he'll only be around for Brisbane 2032 at best considering the bids in contention for 2036.    It just sucks, constant disappointment for the Canadians this year with barely anything to cheer for, and coming so close only to come up short... I'd rather us have just lost in the group stage 
    • I think instead of allocating 2 spots here (for Americas) WBSC should have allowed 3 spots (rather than 2) in the 2027 WBSC premiere. ( 1 each for Asia, Europe & Americas)   That way it would have ensured two things : ONLY the top team from Americas gets the quota here ( deservedly so) additionally it would have allowed teams from Americas a second shot at qualification from the 2027 premieres.    Getting only 1 tournament , more than 2 years ahead of olympics is very harsh on the teams from Americas.
