    Very true point. Although I think at this point everyone is just holding their collective breath until the test event. The NHL isn't going to rage anymore until then because it's not like that would make the arena progress go any quicker

    Wouldn't be a proper lead-up to an Olympics without plenty of fear-mongering from the media. There are concerns, but not the existential crisis that some want to make it seem like everything is going to come crashing down.

    with a steal of 3 in the 8th end, can't make the last shot to stay alive.
  4. Quaker2001
    Oh yea. Seemed like they were starting to get some less than elite pitchers, but the commits they've had in the last 12 hours have been stellar. Now the staff feels like an embarrassment of riches. They have 3 elite starters and a bunch of guys that can eat innings. Thrilled what Mark DeRosa has been able to put together.

    with a successful draw on the last stone of the 8th end to defeat 6-5 and earn a spot in Cortina. It will be vs tonight for the final spot
  6. Quaker2001
    It is, but the tickets are limited. And you have to be a registered supporter of a particular team in order to access them. They're not really available to the general public

    Wow. Figured that Australia was in deep trouble with the loss to Netherlands. Didn't expect that to happen. Go Aussies!
  8. Quaker2001
    They didn't report specifics, but the story is that there was an illness with 1 of the players
  9. Quaker2001
    That could sideline him into next season. Couldn't be a much worse day for the Chiefs who are now eliminated from the playoffs
  10. Quaker2001
    I know you're joking, but that wouldn't even work because that day is the Super Bowl. So NBC will only have coverage on the broadcast network until Noon ET and then will have a shortened primetime show and late night after the game. Which means they'll have to condense Vonn in the downhill and the final day of the team figure skating event into that brodacast

    Wow. That would be an incredible story if she can grab a medal in February. Can only imagine how much NBC is excited over the prospect of having her in contention.

    Was in a meeting so I wasn't following, so as soon as it ended, first thing I did was check the score. Go Team !! Thrilled to have both teams in Cortina. And don't need to go through qualifying in mixed doubles
  13. Quaker2001
    Team Casper is headed to Milan-Cortina!! Lots of misses by China throughout the match, some of which were just bad luck. Thrilled for Danny and company. Glad they don't have to play another game
  14. Quaker2001
    Halfway through the - men's match. US has had 3 straight steals and leads 4-2 after 5 ends. Some bad luck by China, but otherwise they seem to be making more mistakes than the Americans
  15. Quaker2001
    concedes down 10-5 after 8. is officially the #3 seed
  16. Quaker2001
    That match turned quickly for So we're all but set for the playoffs
  17. Quaker2001
    Saw that one. Would love for them to get Skubal, but I'm worried that his situation with the Tigers where they might trade him (but probably not) would prevent that from happening.
  18. Quaker2001
    Organizations that have loftier purposes than the Olympics probably won't follow suit. Seems like it's probably more likely to be more individual sports (like athletics or swimming or gymnastics) and less about the team sports. FIFA, FIBA, IIHF, etc. I doubt they're going to make any changes.
  19. Quaker2001
    It's a good start, but at most he's only pitching a handful of innings. I'm hoping him being on the team compels some other big name pitchers to play and hopefully it's better than last time where American pitchers simply don't view the tournament as a priority and would rather spend that time in spring training getting ready for the season
  20. Quaker2001
    US team still needs some pitching, but their lineup should be killer, especially with the depth now at Shortstop and Catcher
  21. Quaker2001
    defeats 9-5 to clinch a playoff spot! - still going on, currently in the 10th end, which will determine the seeding order. Wow.. with a miss on their last stone of the 10th end. capitalizes and scores 2 to tie it 9-9 and send the game to an extra end!
  22. Quaker2001
    loses to with hammer in extra ends which clinched a spot for in the #1 vs #2 game. 3rd playoff spot still up for grabs tomorrow on the men's side
  23. Quaker2001
    Do or die for the US women. Japan has nothing to play for, but I'm sure they would love to beat Norway if they have to face them again. Let's go Tabitha!
  24. Quaker2001
    That's what I figured. Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
  25. Quaker2001
    Are we supposed to take Daly's word for it or is this just public posturing to try and shame the Milan organizers (which they certainly deserve for all the delays) in order to threaten NHL participation?
