    Steve Omischl had the exact same thing happen to him in the qualifying round of the aerials in Turin 2006, but otherwise I can't think of another time this happened. Edit: found it:

    I got a deep cut for you: Igor Tikhomirov, bronze medallist at the 1988 Olympics in the épée team event, won a world championship bronze medal for Canada in individual épée back in 2006.

    Would be an upset if they beat and but it's definitively possible. Romania's progress in bobsleigh has been really impressive over the past couple years. Def feels like they could become medal contenders soon.

    No, Sherraine Schalm has six individual world cup wins and a season title. Canada also has a couple individual world championship medals.

    Every one of these countries except for have at least one legitimate medal shot. are basically 100% guaranteed to win at least one medal (I think all are more likely than not to win at least one gold, too). The other countries on the list depend on one of a handful of medal chances to pan out.

    I'm sure nobody in Australia would mind if Serbia banned unvaccinated players xD

    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-60014059 The three judge federal judge panel upheld the minister's decision to cancel Djokovic's visa. The only possible appeal is to the high court, but there would be no time to appeal to the high court before the Australian Open.

    One of my favourite French language thing is that "strong" wind is literally translated as "violent" wind.

    Weird final won by Naeslund by over a minute, with two falls (including a DNF) and a DNS.

    TBH they basically are. AFAIK only one unvaccinated Western athlete is going, and the three week quarantine is going to destroy any chance she had to be competitive.

    Dude their last win was literally less than a week ago :P How dare you ignore the dominance of Kelly Sildaru in women's ski slopestyle?

    Ya, Canadian moguls skiing is in extremely rough shape, it just looks fine because Kingsbury is one of the greatest skier of all times. Canada has to give up six quotas total, so I think at least one rejected quota in both men's and women's moguls is a given.

    That’s an interesting choice of source.

    Other than 2014 the Dutch have always underperformed in the team pursuit at the Olympics. I'll believe they are the favorite when I see it, until then I have them down as a big question mark.
  15. NearPup
    I expect 4 or 5 golds. I really don't think there is any event where the Dutch have a higher chance to win than the field other than the men's 1000m, but also the Dutch have a pretty good chance in every event other than the men's 500m, 5000m, 10000m (assuming van der Poel doesn't fall) and mass start. Also there is no such thing as being a lock to win the mass start xD

    Those are some insane selection criteria y'all have...

    Jaclyn Narracott wins O.o St Moritz is always wild.
  18. NearPup
    I really think any of the top seven or eight teams could win gold and it wouldn't even really be an upset. Kind of a deep field this year.

    Djokovic’s visa has been cancelled and he is in deportation proceedings. Again.
  21. NearPup
    Posting the video because reports are that he is alert and able to move his extremities. https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/1992673859858

    Ya the men’s team in particular is promising. It’s just very much not the kind of team we had over the last two decades.
  23. NearPup
    That’s definitively a… development squad.
  24. NearPup
    Extremely scary fall by George McQuinn, the scariest accident I’ve ever seen in a moguls competition.

    Obligatory "Andrew didn't kill himself"
