Swewi

Damn, couldn't this have been the Olympics?

Gabriel Gledhill (GBR) who was seen drafting behind Diggins during the race apparantly was drunk under the race as he accepted 10-12 beers and 5-6 shots from the attendees besides the course.

I think our main problem is that most swedes have difficulties with the altitude. Ponsilouma one of few exceptions. Elvira Öberg and Sebastian Samuelsson in particular have shown this many times. Sebastians 5th place in sprint was by far his best performance ever in Antholz as an example.
 
Öbergs skipped Nove mesto to get some extra time on altitude agerad of the games but even that didnt help. 
 
then another factor is also that we bad skis in many (not all) races as well which  was surprising because usually I think we have a much better wax team in biathlon than XC but not in the olympics.

Also Hanna would have won the globe if her sister didn't win today 😅

I think the weather gods missed out on the news about Stockholm losing this voting because Stockholm  had the best winter weather for many years during the last weeks, just for it to melt away immediately after the closing ceremony 

As long as they start playing Handball on their ice or snow

Alpine skiing (10)
 
*No changes. I don't regret neither the old combined events, nor the team event. I think we have the best possible outcome now. Schedule could be revisited though.
 
Biathlon (11)
 
* Single mixed relay instead of regular mixed relay. If you want a third relay, let's have one with a different format. Two teams per country
 
Bobsleigh (4 -> 3)
 
* Drop that Monobob nonsense. It's ok, if we don't have the exact same number of events between males and females. Two teams per country (sorry Germany), push for standardized bobsleighs in two-woman and two-men.
 
Cross-country skiing (12 -> 14)
 
 
* Have both free and classical sprint events
* Make sure you have real sprint courses, and no Klaebo-sprint courses
 
 
Curling (3)
 
*As a pure two-weeks-every-four-years curling guy, I prefer the mixed format over the longest one, but I assume purists will disagree, so it's ok 
 
Figure skating (5 -> 4)
 
*Drop the team event or come with something better. As it stands, it's too much artificial.
 
Freestyle skiing (15 -> 13)
 
 
* Remove aerials altogether. It was ok to have gymnasts doing crazy stuff on air for a time, but with the inclusion of other crazy stuff from actual skiers, it became pointless
* Keep dual moguls, but tweak it so that speed becomes way more prevalent
* Add mixed skicross event
 
 
Ice hockey (2)
 
- ok -
 
Luge (5)
 
* Drop the women's double, not competitive enough.
 
Nordic combined (3 -> 4)
 
* Keept it !
* Add one women's events, no need for more
* Make one of the men's event a Mass Start
* Add one woman to the relay
 
Short-track speed skating (9)
 
- ok -
 
Skeleton (3)
 
- ok -
 
Ski jumping (6 -> 5)
 
* Have only one mixed team event and that's it.
 
Ski mountaineering (3 -> 5)
 
* Make it a core sport ! (I believe it brings enough variety to the program to keep it for good)
* Have sprint events ont the longest relay course
* Add individual events
 
Snowboarding (11 -> 14)
 
* Add a parallel slalom team event
* Add freeride events
 
Speed skating (14 -> 13)
 
* Drop the Mass Start, it's not your sport ! 
* Bring an all-around team event, or possibly both individual all-around events if the athletes are up for it. 
 
Bandy (as an additional sport) (0-1)
 
* Men only, and if it makes sense for the host country.
 
 
TOTAL: 116 -> 118/119

Yes please! This will be a welcome addition & much deserved.

At least we won the medal count if we ignore the men😂

Yes definately an important shot after Sofias guard.
 
fun fact about Agnes, she and Anna was born on the same day at the same hospital! Nothing did they know about their future together.
 
Another fun fact, Agnes son is just a few  days older than my daughter. Nothing do they know that we have Said that they Will be a mixed doubles pair in the future😄

Today Ebba could have afford to break her ski and make a vault like in the relay. and still win. And maybe 4 times and still medal😄

And also Jonna Sundling.  So Sweden Will have 2 Skiiers today and one of them is Ribom who was not even intended to go the 50km.

Frida Karlsson having fever and by that it seems like her olympic career is over.
 
Slind who Said earlier today, knowing she had symptoms, that she hoped Frida would fail, can now celebrate already

Forgot Jones played 2022, ofc! They really deserve to finally medal this time.
 
also Tirinzoni/Pätz have struggled a lot in there olympic history so well deserved that they also have a medal now

It feels right that Shiffrin has two Olympic golds in slalom, being far and away the greatest of all time in this discipline.
 
Rast takes silver in spite of hating the slope 
 
(And she's 100% right, this slope just does not sui slalom at all; the one they used for the 2021 WCh was miles better)
 
Glad for Swenn-Larsson, but you have to feel for Oehlund, so unlucky 
 

Schumacher finally round the shape that was far gone.👏 As I hoper Edvin Anger would too😓
 
 
Maja Dahlqvist btw have never started an olympic race without getting a medal. 5/5 after her last career olympic race

Sweden has actually improved now. 12-19 in shots. It was like 13-2 before. 
Not that I think they would have been able to win anyway but if they had been in group A they would have had some practice games on this level and not getting this chock from after only playing the B-teams

Too young to remember him jumping but I have actually talked to him a few times. But not about ski jumping. He is playing curling recreationallly at my club. Didn't understand what legend he was the first time 😂

Wow almost a medal in a sport with around 1 active athlete in Sweden 😱 even good enough on distance despite more headwind. Just not good technical points😱

That's  sad that you totslly ignored this discipline.
