Here we go, all the big names on track....

"Ladies, just pretend you are aiming at Leagrid"

British commentator immediately spots she has poor elbow postioning.

Ilves increases his lead at the first mark... ....gap narrowing now....

Is also to.do.with sports gambling. When people lose money they blame the athlete.

If only there was a word that meant "a long, involved complex story". The Sturla Laegrid Saga continues to dominate international tabloids with the inevitable girlfriend's response. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/winterolympics/article-15548843/sturla-holm-laegreid-cheating-girlfriend-response.html Next episode: Sturla the Loose Breeked and his jarls must set off across the cold Atlantic in a quest for unknown lands.

The racing half is usually exciting &unpredictable.

It is the old story, starting speed versus driving skill in the second half of the track.

Accepting on behalf of all Slovs.

Only Sara Takanashi's second medal. She was the biggest name in Women's ski jumping before it became an Olympic sport, but has never won much at the Olymoucs.

South Korean CC skiers banned for using the old wax. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/winterolympics/article-15547331/Two-athletes-disqualified-Winter-Olympics-banned-substance-skis-Penis-gate-saga.html

Like toxic waste in Uzbekistan.

.063 after 4 runs, that's proper luge

We just got some!

Fraebel making up places but too late!

We missed the big story! Olympic medalist broke down in tears on live television today as he confessed to cheating on the 'love of his life'. Norwegian biathlete Sturla Holm Lægreid took home the bronze medal on Tuesday in the Men's 20km Individual race in the Winter Olympics in Italy. But despite his triumph, the sportsman was overcome by emotion after he admitted to being unfaithful to his girlfriend of six months while being interviewed after his big win. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/winterolympics/article-15546275/Olympic-medal-winner-confesses-CHEATING-girlfriend-live-TV-interview-nabbing-bronze-says-biggest-mistake-life.html

Yeah, the nations that have Home tracks - Germans, americans, Latvians etc - start luge at about 10 years old. Bobsleigh & skeleton, not until late teens.

Apparently it's the biggest ticket seller at these 'ere Games.

maintain their perfect record of 3/3 4th place finishes on all medal chances. We are planting whole forests of maple trees & introducing polar bears to the highlands.

4-3 and have the hammer in the eighth.

4-2 after 6, so have got to go big now.

continue to shade it 3-1 after 4.

Better from Bruce & Jen but they miss a shot at three so 1-0

Right, here we go......

Tuz just too young, does not have the stamina for three races.
