I'm hoping that the format is to accommodate the MLB players. The timing of it coincides with what would usually be the All-Star break so maybe they can squeeze it in without disrupting the baseball season.

Preliminary competition schedule is out: https://la28.org/content/dam/latwentyeight/competition-schedule-imagery/LA28OlympicGamesCompetitionByDaySchedule.pdf https://la28.org/content/dam/latwentyeight/competition-schedule-imagery/LA28OlympicGamesCompetitionScheduleBySession.pdf Didn't look through everything but some sports including triathlon and tennis are moving from their usual spots on the schedule.

Just curious, how do these compare to previous Winter Games? Seems expensive in comparison to Paris where I was able to get some good seats or watch finals for under 100 euro https://milanocortina2026.olympics.com/s3fs-public/documents/2024-10/20241009_Test_Table_A4_B_NO_VISA.pdf?VersionId=lyYTMUMYb_8kSLnKWQaNuSfmhp6_vUrk

Thanks for this. Between Olympics in the daytime here and the Super Bowl at 630pm, I should be on the couch for about 17 hours on February 8

SI seems to have been slipping lately. In the pre-Internet days, I loved their Olympic preview issues including full medal predictions when that was the only place you could find that info.
