  1. So much for Europe shrinking the gap in quality. Looks like COVID may have undone all of that.
  2. As for the course, the first impression is okay. Nothing special, but not too bad either. It's definitely too short though (unless it was shortened due to wind?).
  3. I opened the replay just now. Picked a random point on the timeline just to see how the course looked like. And the run I picked was Etxezarreta of Spain going into second place with Bib 37.
  4. Morris mansplained the play to Homan and paid the price.
  5. Based on what exactly did Morris/Homan get selected? Surely not just on a whim?
  6. Morris would struggle to make Team with this form.
  7. Morris is playing badly, but Dodds is there to counter-balance.
  8. Casey Dawson out of all individual events. Still a chance he makes the team pursuit. The most wonderful technician. I am gutted.
  9. With zero explanation given, it was announced just now that Zrinka Ljutić will replace Leona Popović as the flag bearer, because Leona "will not be in Beijing on the day of the ceremony". Huh. Interesting how they found this out just now. Smells like really bad news... Her first race is supposed to be in just five days...
  10. So the first night session is coming up. I plan to watch the CAN v GBR derby, before heading back to sleep. And then on the replay, most likely one or two more curling games, and the men's moguls...
  11. An epic fail for Australia. Looks like it came down to Hewitt introducing doubts right before his partner was about make the last throw...
  12. Anyone else feels the main graphics are too Christmassy with that cheesy animated snow? Pyeongchang had much more subtle snowflakes.
  13. Probably only one replay tomorrow for me (most likely the Australian curling debut)...
  14. The perk of a mini team is having zero expectations. Heck, I'll even have time to watch every single performance, so I guess I'll just support them as they go along.
  15. Any chance for Lu Chen? Ye has a... colorful past so I'll be surprised if they went with her.
  16. I don't even know who is dumber. Athletes who risked their Olympics for some random WC, or FIS for organizing WC events 5 days before the Olympics and two years into pandemic.
  17. First that come to mind are Chock/Bates in the ice dance. Followed by Irene Schouten and Casey Dawson in speed skating.
  18. I immediately stopped reading after they selected Laura Nolte for monobob gold and two-women silver. Obviously they never followed the bobsleigh season. Nolte is far better in the two-women event.
  19. Transferring unused bobsleigh quotas to skeleton would have been utter nonsense since there are unqualified bobsleigh crews...
  20. Now this was a masterpiece. Even with the two-footed 3Lz. You will not see a program like this one in Beijing.
  21. Most likely the IOC (under China's pressure) threatened with severe sanctions. Everyone knows this traffic thing was just an excuse.
  22. Articulation is a real thing though, as in, a part of a bobled. Personally I prefer: "He stopped the bleeding", "Speed... pedestrian", "More hits than Elvis" and "Look at that........ AIRBORNE!".
  23. This belongs here. I am surprised some users voted for Deneriaz here. He was such a one hit wonder that his winning run was not even broadcasted live in entirety. p.s. Damn, I still get aphasia just by seeing those horrendous tilted flags of Sochi (London).
