  1. In case someone needs an update on pronouncing biathlon names. All non-Slavs should be thankful Stvrtecky's first name isn't Grzegorz or you'd all be screwed twice
  2. Been watching this for 30 years. Germany are ALWAYS in the bobsleigh mix so nothing will look different in four years time
  3. Luge & bobsleigh is heavily dependant on facilities and the only reason Germany doesn't dominate skeleton is the fact their athletes also start late just like most of the other nations involved. And those skeletonists aren't even third-rate lugers who switched events for better results, Grotheer & Jungk are failed ski jumpers of all things. If one day Germany decides to breed designed skeletonists since age 6-7 then it will be all over just like it's the case with luge & bobsleigh.
  4. Yeah, former ski jumpers finished 1-2 in WOG. Skeleton is really a low-hanging fruit compared to some of the other winter sports.
  5. Was he drafted by NHL club already? Even Polish TV said he was the best Slovakian player thus far so I presume he will make more noise internationally really soon
  6. So, aka the American who wasn't good enough to compete for them actually beat both & here in Beijing?
  7. Yeah, it's obviously the right attitude especially in an event she wasn't a favorite to medal. I just hope she doesn't have one crash too many one day.
  8. Yes, obviously. I believe this (Final B winner getting a medal) happened once with one of the relays few years ago but can't be sure.
  9. Santos & Fontana down! Schulting wins gold, Choi silver and Desmet bronze!
  10. No DSQ but advanced into the final. So it will be five teams in the final.
  11. It was a tangle with the Canadian after all. Uh-oh. I have a bad feeling about this
  12. I'm shocked doesn't try some speed skating. I bet they still have some Dutch DNA natives living there which could train in the old country
  13. Polish coach Tadeusz Bafia who works in Canada for over 20 years said this medal is like South Africa winning one in ice hockey. Something tells me South Africa really has a bad reputation in winter sports
  14. Sanfilippo with the worst shooting in the field 5/10 but nobody had a huge meltdown. Vittozzi 4 + 0 was kinda her usual nonsense.
  15. After 5,000 someone here said Ghiotto flops at the big events?
  16. Jak TVP przejmuje biathlon to będą jaja. Grzywa oczywiście bez podjazdu, ale jak Sobczyński będzie się podniecał zawodniczką wbiegającą na strzelnicę już z 10 sekundami straty to nic z tego nie będzie. Widać, że facet nie ma żadnego "know how" w tym sporcie.
  17. Air time for Kinga Zbylut but only because she dropped her pole
  18. That should be the podium - Olsbu, E. Oeberg & Wierer.
  19. Elvira Oeberg 10/10 but ski speed is not there to challenge Olsbu.
