Quaker2001

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.

It will be  vs  tonight for the final spot

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

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

Come on ! You've beaten  once, now do it again!  We'll see! Congrats to !

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.

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

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?

Insane!!

Minnesotan Jessie Diggins announces upcoming retirement from ski racing
 
This will be Diggins' final season of racing.

John Shuster with a clutch draw on the last rock of the 10th end.  Series against Danny Casper is tied 1-1.  They'll play a 3rd game tomorrow to decide who will represent the United States at the Olympic Qualifying Event next month.

Today is on Peacock.  Tomorrow and Sunday are on USA

Of note.. the women's 100m Athletics final will be on the first full day of competition.  So they'll be starting off with a bang!

Yea, at this point mostly a lot of political bluster.  I don't think the IOC needs to be searching for an alternative just yet.

I'm going to Netherlands-South Africa on Saturday.  Thought about trying to get to one of the US matches, but the schedule didn't work out.  But I've been following this match today.  What a result!  Especially since it took a boundary to force that super over in the first place.
 
U-S-A!  U-S-A!!

I know this is a very heavily Americanized point of view, but they're probably looking at what's going on with the NCAA and how the athletes are starting to get their share of the money that is being made and figure that needs to start happening with the Olympics.  The days of amateurism are long gone and the prestige of winning an Olympic medal shouldn't be the only reward coming from the IOC (as opposed to payouts from the respective NOCs)
