Lindsay!

 

That was excellent  

Qualified for free skate since I can't see Valieva lower than 24th

Graabak hits turbo button and see ya! Oftebro second and Watabe hangs on for bronze!

Riiber getting dropped now. He's done.

Lamparter, Faisst & Watabe break free.

Akito Watabe takes the lead...

Riiber run the wrong course!

Advantage down to 10 secs.

Switzerland leads Czech Republic 2-1 after 1st period. Swiss scored two goals in a 13 second span

it's her sister Nicol that had the injuries...

 

she's the youngster, the rising star of our team...

I always have trouble when siblings have a name starting with the same letter  I thought Nadia had one injury at least too?

I have a feeling the gold medal is kinda out of reach

wins men's pursuit!

This was more drama than Jennifer Rodriguez blowing up on the last lap and gifting bronze medal in Vancouver

Crash for Japan! Weidemann pushed Canada like crazy!!!

Gold for  

wins bronze and no joy at all.

93 meters for Szczechowicz. 121,5 for Kupczak. Anything in Top 30 for the latter will be a success

It might if countries start saying they will set up a breakaway Olympics.

We had Goodwill Games running into 21st century and last time I checked they are out of business

It's safe to this relay bronze will be the least celebrated medal of these WOG

I jinxed Christiansen into gold!!!

Meltdown for Latypov!!!

Alright, a three-way heat for silver. France should take it and like I said I fear Christiansen will blow it up for Norway even going vs Nawrath.

Varabei two penalty loops. So that leaves four teams for three medals on the last leg.

JT Boe in striking distance for the podium but I have zero faith in Christiansen on the last leg

Well, I live in China and am surrounded by a dozen or so nationalities of all kinds.  Our chat group's biggest meme is Russian dopers at the Olympics.  

Yeah, welcome to 21st century, having a best meme about Russians ain't gonna be good enough to stop them

It's unfortunate that we always have to question an unexpected good result from Russian athletes, but they (and the IOC along with other governing bodies) have done it to themselves.  

I'm pretty sure this is maybe a topic in USA, Canada & Great Britain but most of the world has moved on already. There is zero chance every Russian athlete uses doping anyway but some nations can't decide which is the bigger evil China or Russia. Some people really need that Cold War scenario again but it's not coming back. EU & USA doing absolutely nothing when Russia annexed Crimea only proves that point.
