Women in Val Gardena? Has that ever happened before?

For the record, Christine Scheyer suffered a torn ACL in that LL fall and is out for the season. You could guess as much three seconds after the fall.

They have 14 days deadline in which the event must be confirmed IIRC. They can't ship artificial snow for a DH course.

Seems we are already eliminated, I don't believe we can beat Sweden, by this our girls make their road to Tokyo Games much more difficult...

If Denmark beats Serbia we must beat Sweden by 4 goals. If Serbia beats Denmark, any Poland win gets us through.

Packers dropped at home to the 2-9 Cardinals. Rodgers with another ho-hum aka lousy day. Either he's tanking to make sure McCarthy gets fired or he's truly lost his groove. You can only blame as much on these rookie WR.

But only three of them did it within a single season...

And you know that because Kostelic was one of them?

So, it's safe to say Shiffrin becomes the 7th woman ever to win in all 5 alpine skiing events joining Petra Kronberger, Pernilla Wiberg, Anja Paerson, Janica Kostelic, Lindsey Vonn and Tina Maze

Yeah, that's KO for the season IMO. Probably did the damage before hitting the boards.

Shiffrin with a bigger lead in SG than slalom

The Lake Louise DH course will be named Lake Lindsey Way from next season onwards

Denmark wins 28-21. Not unexpected. We rely too much on Kudlacz & Kobylinska these days and have a very poor defense.

Polish keeper has more saves in the first 8 mins of the Denmark game than in 60 mins vs Serbia

Delago goes 5th

Fanchini didn't blow it up this time

The days Gisin is a slalom specialist are long gone.

I know that but she still gained the most time in the technical GS/SG middle sector. Old habits die hard!

"No matter what, this is my last season."

 

One thing happens.

 

"I might go again at the beginning of next season."

If slalom speciallist Michelle Gisin can finish 2nd here, Vonn could win racing without the ski poles

Random teams having naturalized Americans in basketball is as common as naturalized Chinese in table tennis

I believe Joe McNaull was the first American who played for Polish national team when he obtained our citizenship in 2000.

Packers are pretty much done this season after another dismal game vs Vikings.

Browns rolled back to 1950 and clowned the Bengals who were absolutely awful.

Kot is fucking useless ever since he thought he could become the team leader ahead of Stoch. His ego hit him in the ass the last two seasons. Plus I simply can't stand his father in the TV studio

This shows you how far ahead Shiffrin really is. This was a scrappy run from her but still faster than Vlhova who appeared to nail it.

Talk about spanking the competition!

I very much preferred the system where the best ones where somewhere between 10 and 20.

16-22 to be exact. But it used to be worse when all the big guns started 1-7. You just can't have it in the speed events, the 16-23 system was scraped because they complained about 1-15 being irrelevant and a waste of time. Plus the best guys in the current system always choose bibs 5, 7, 9 and 11 almost all the time.

If Michigan still gets to the playoffs after that beatdown then the whole system is rigged!

This suits Harbaugh very well. Must be the most overhyped coach ever - and most overpaid right now. What a shitshow that was!

Unless of course she grows too big to show this teenage excellence anymore? I find these freestyle skiing more like gymnastics, 16 yo are better off to steal the show than 24 yo.
