So Ukrainians managed to finish last in all of the luge events.

Whereever you're from, these Olympics are great for the development of the sport.  Seeing North Americans medal and Asians be competitive is showing the spread of luge.

Btw, don't dare to spoil men's biathlon/10000m. I'll watch them on delay.

We've got biathlon and speed skating threads for talk about that, no worries

Very sad, i hoped for a medal for Russia. Germany just too dominant, i think we need new events to break the german dominance.

What about mixed doubles, men's relay (like team relay, but only with men's singles), women's relay (like team relay, but only with women's singles)?

This relay was just really close, arguably the most tense competition (for me, at least) of the entire Olympics

 

And not even because of having quite some bets, but because (until Germany) it was all so close, hundreths, even thousandths of a second deciding positions!

That was pretty interesting relay. Loved it.
