  1. They usually out-source the technical coverage to one of the usual experts. Austrians for Alpine, Norwegians for CC etc.
  2. Now that is what you call a conspiracy theory!
  3. Can Stadlober get that medal she earned last time?
  4. You have many situations where it’s going to be v v v & they are all in blue! What idiocy, who decided that!
  5. And the Swedes are in blue as well? FFS!
  6. Has taken me 5 mins & 30 secs to realise that the Norwegians are not in red.
  7. Going to celebrate with second breakfast!
  8. How terrible. Let us hope that, for example, pretty much any random Russian female curler over the last twenty years does not take this tawdry path to cheap fame.
  9. Still a couple of days left though? There's a week to the first heat! People have grown new heads in less time.
  10. Nathan Crumpton gets some media attention, although it's the Daily Mail, so most details are wrong. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10477409/Bob-sledder-American-Samoa-goes-topless-23F-temperatures-Beijing.html
  11. Fair enough, but don't forget that it was the IOC's greed and corruption that drove these Olympics away from Norway, their logical home.
  12. Think Nathan Crumpton had had to put in a bit of - errm - special gym work to get that authentically Polynesian flag-bearer look.
  13. Yeah, no drinking tonight - unusual for a Friday - then up at about 05:30 for slopestyle catch-up & second curling then a straight run through to afternoon. Will sacrifice Speed skating & Luge for later.
  14. Winnie is Winnie the Pooh, who stands in the same relation to President Xi as Clark Kent does to Superman. https://www.shopdisney.co.uk/disney-store-winnie-the-pooh-medium-soft-toy-412318729939.html?isProductSearch=0&guestFacing=Characters%20%26%20Movies-Popular%20Characters-Winnie%20the%20Pooh&plpPosition=3
  15. This was how ceremonies used to be until the 1960s - I went through all the videos back before London & it was always a military-type parade.
  16. President Xi gets the gratitude of the world’s hostages.
  17. Yeah, thought the Mayor was throwing some shade there, not giving him the proper build-up.
  18. OK, that’s enough athletes, can we finally have some speeches?
  19. Mongolian delegations have historically been unwelcome in Beijing.
  20. So even in the Chinese alphabet must come after .
