Silly of me to think, that when you have an event named Mixed doubles, you would have a man and a woman on the sled and not another relay event

The heart of Diggins on display once again. She seemed out of it on the second to last climb, but found her second life on the final one and bypassed the two Norwegians like nothing. Johaug will need some time to get back into her terminator form.

Good start to the season for women. Sweeney almost got the win today with a track record in the second run.

The other news from today is that we have our first X of the season. Races in Mont Tremblant next week have been cancelled. Imagine Canada being the place where there is no snow.. FIS are now scrambling to find a next host for next week.

A chaotic race, with a lot of falls and mishaps between runs 1 and 2, has a cruel end, as Shiffrin falls as well. Hector made a fantastic second run and i actually didn't think Shiffrin would have beaten it. Looked like an unpleasant fall too, so let's see if she will be ok for tomorrow.

Eurosport 1 and 2 are included in every basic cable plan here. Those are between 7-10 Euro a month. If you want the additional paid sporting channels, that show the football leagues, F1, Moto GP, NBA, NHL, NFL, tennis etc. those are another 10-12 euros. So you can get everything for about 20 euros.

Because 10 hours of snooker.. I enjoy snooker, but I don't need snooker on the weekend in the afternoon..

Very fun race in Killington with wacky weather conditions Some barely make it past 10 gates, some then do 3-4 seconds and then there are braver gals that do under or only a second behind Shiffrin.

The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us. Looks like Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music. When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately. And now are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them. My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.

Boxing cangaroo instead of regular boxing.

Since it's the home Olympics I think there is a chance to have 50-60 million. It won't be Superbowl numbers, but it could very well be around a Presidential debate level.

Yes, snow everywhere 🌨️ Yesterday was just depressing.

Today looks much more like Lillehammer than yesterday

I didn't this year. But the Summer Grand Prix is like Formula 3 to Winter Ski-Jumping being the F1 I mean Zografski of all people won the Grand Prix last summer, which says it all.

That would be stupid to retire one year before the Olympics. It's not like there are 5 other Polish jumpers who are better than him. On the contrary, Poland is in a slight slump currently and no one stands out.

An American in top 10 is totally unexpected Frantz has a lot of potential, but let's see if he can keep up with the consistency. The US investing in the renovation of the Lake Placid hills is starting to give positives. And they are going to make a brand new hill for Ski-flying in Northern Michigan next year, which could be used in the summer as well.

There is no snow in Lillehammer

Well that is a totally different question I too have wondered what happened to Italian cross-country and how there is no one coming for so many years. But it shouldn't take away from the sports where progress has been made.

Well that explains why she is wearing more clothes with every passing day. Nevertheless that team is still one of the best in the world and is a vast improvement on what Italy was doing 10-20 years ago.

And as i say that, Constantini mishaps the final stone in this end and gives Switzerland 4 points

The Swiss are making lots of mistakes unlike their usual perfect performances. Italia have a chance for a final

Hirscher not looking like Hirscher in his return so far. After being away for so long it will probably take him awhile to get used to competing again. Also he needs to lose some kilos, because right now he is more suited for the speed events and not a slalom

Vinatzer had the potential to be a big star. Some years ago I expected him to become a constant favourite for slalom podiums and wins. But he is just too big of a loose canon and barely makes any good runs, without mistakes.

Good runs for Kolega and Popov to bring some flair to the top 10

Let's hope so. Sweden desperately needs a new breakout star.
