    I don't buy that she's doing this just to start the race if she thinks she won't be competitive.  We'll probably know more after the training run and far be it from me to know how that's going to work with a torn ACL, but if she knows she can't do it, she'll give that spot to another skier

    Quaker2001 got a reaction from Triplecast in Will USA Top The Gold Medal Table?   
    Team USA has been remarkably consistent.  They won 10 gold medals in Salt Lake and they've won exactly 9 at each of the past 5 Olympics.  I recall from Torino in 2006 that the perception was that the American team did poorly because a lot of the big name stars (think Bode Miller) under-performed.  Hopefully that's not the case this time around

    It's funny to think back how revolutionary it was for Calgary to have speed skating at an indoor venue, but I agree this is a good solution going forward for future host cities, especially in Europe where the games are likely to be more spread out where they could find a large arena/stadium to use as a temporary venue

    Alpine and Cross-Country are what I'm getting up early in the morning for.  And definitely want to see Jordan Stolz in speed skating to revive American interest in the sport since there hasn't been a big star in a long time

    As a Jets fan, I can honestly say that I have never wanted Sam Darnold to win a football game and beat the Pats more than I will in 2 weeks.  Although I might need a nap that day since I probably need to be up early for the women's downhill since that could wind up being the most important sporting event of the day for me.

    Love to hear it.  Always useful for me to help figure out my sleep/work schedule during the Olympics.  And it's great finally being in a better timezone after the last 2 Winter Olympics both in Asia.  There are some good things about that like live alpine skiing in the evening here, but too much going on in the overnight hours

    Hi all.  Wanted to share my schedule spreadsheet, with the important caveat that this is most useful for Americans trying to figure out when events will be televised.  But could be a useful resource to others here.
     
    There are 2 tabs at the front with the full event schedule.  Similar to the schhedules here, 1 of the tabs is sorted by day and time.  The other is sorted by sport.
     
    After that are day by day grids so you can see what's going on at any given time on a particular day.
     
    And there are tabs going sport by sport if you wanted to see what time there is speed skating each day.  Combined multiple sports into a tab where I could (i.e. the sliding sports), but it has all 4 sheets of curling and both hockey venues.
     
    Like I said, this is more for the benefit of folks in the United States and I know there are only a few here.  But for the rest, feel free to use this as a resource for start and end times for events and some individual events within the larger session.

    It is surreal that Lindsey is still doing that, even on the short run they had today.  And equally exciting to see Jackie finish in 3rd that will help solidify her spot on the US team
