    The Russian team showed a lot of grit, I am legitimately impressed of how they came back from being down one goal and facing a penalty with two minutes left. Respect.
  2. NearPup
    Russia? You mean OAR
  3. NearPup
    Well, best team in the tournament won. Congrats OAR / RUS

    So, Bjørgen sure looks like the gold medalist in waiting.

    if it makes you feel any better, rooting for Alex Harvey at the Olympics has only lead to disappointments for me too.

    I'll root for a tie for gold in the women's 30km, just for you <3

    You realize we had a tie in cross country skiing these Olympics, right? And there has been a tie for gold in a mass start cross country skiing race at the Olympics (two Norwegians, too).

    We get bonus hockey boys!

    This game is out of control! Wow!

    This could be the miracle on ice 2.0, holly ****

    We should root for Germany, since then it will be a partial Canadian gold medal

    I duno, I really like bunnies. Believe it or not, the TV breaks are a lot shorter here than in the NHL. Best part of watching basketball at the Olympics vs the NBA is the lack of TV timeouts, too.
  13. NearPup
    You misspelled "TV timeouts". Edit: huh, powerbreak is German for TV timeout.

    That record isn't long for this world considering all the events being added anyway. Let Germany have it. I want the upset! ...obviously Germany winning would be highly irregular xD
  15. NearPup
    Nah, I think Germany was just better than people thought Russia is certainly not humiliating Germany, a team which won in an uphill battle against Canada.

    If you give 2026 to Calgary you'll get your Kreisel

    I honestly have no idea what the Beijing 2022 track will be like. I actually am in love with the Pyeongchang track, especially as a luge track (curve 9 is one of the best curve in the world IMO), I'd like Beijing's track to be similar but maybe like five to ten seconds longer. And with a longer start for Bobsleigh. I know it's unlikely but I really hope to see some luge world cups in Pyeongchang.

    We are seeing a lot of ties because it's a short technical track, like we had in Nagano. On most tracks ties aren't super common.

    No matter what kind of rounding you use there are always going to be silly situations like that. Taking a modern physics lab, where we spent a ridiculous amount of time talking about error margins, has made me ponder how we should round times in sport quite a bit and whether we should just give ties within a certain time regardless of how it rounds / trims.
  20. NearPup
    TBH if I was in charge of the FIL luge wouldn't be timed to the thousandth. At some point it gets ridiculous.
  21. NearPup
    Germany is going to win gold in hockey so Norway has no chance xD

    In shooting you need to have shoot-offs because otherwise you could collude to have a tie. In a sport like bobsleigh ties happen by accident, there is no way to force one.

    Congratulations to Kevin Kuske, the most decorated Bobsleigh athlete in Olympic history, he is now ahead of his former pilot André Lange.
  24. NearPup
    I hope Won and Seo keep at it, would be nice for Korea to become a permanent fixture in Bobsleigh. Sure Won had a huge home track advantage, but he has proven to be a talented pilot on the world cup tour.
  25. NearPup
    They better not, ties in bobsleigh are awesome.
