Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad

Good to hear. Would need another listen before I'm happy with my votes.

I'll join!

Way to go, D66!

Wow, that's early. Such a massive talent early on.. 

Yeah.  That was quite a surprise,  but it's not always easy to stay motivated in elite sports.

Well. With new tickets for sale I got a few additions meaning that my schedule seems full:

Feb 13: Fly to Milano, possibly a bit of tourism

Feb 14: - and -

Feb 15: - and -

Feb 16: Move to Bolzano

Feb 17: Biathlon men's relay

Feb 18: Cross-country team sprint

Feb 19: Nordic Combined Team sprint

Feb 20: Biathlon Men's mass start

Feb 21: Back to Milano

Feb 22: Go home

Pretty happy about that one. Would have liked some speed skating during the days in Milano but they were just much too expensive for me.

That was an interesting discussion that had nothing to do with this event, so I'll just say...

What an amazing time trial by Niklas. Bronze medal with that start list is damn impressive!

Pagacar and Evenepoel should really slow down a bit, because this is looking so grotesque in this moment in history of cycling... At least Armstrong was slowing down a bit – he limited only to the TDF and I don't remember that he attacking with 100km to go, etc... Landis did something like that once on the TDF in 2006 and got busted immediately. Pagacar does this practically all year round and I'm supposed to believe it`s a normal? The same with Evenepoel – the guy returned from Rwanda just 3 days ago after a massacre Sunday battle on a difficult course and today he is crushing the fresh Ganna, who's an very good time trialist? I think I will actually give up on this sport, because it's increasingly insulting to my intelligence... 

Whether you want to believe or not is up to you, bu normal? No. Pogacar is the rider of the century and might very well end his career as the GOAT (still a bit behind Merckx, but a few more years at this level...).

In most other sports it would be seen with the greatest respect, but in a sport with cycling's history it is red lights at once.

And Shane Lowry makes it! Halves the game meaning Europe retains the title! 

Lowry bringing the A-game when it's needed the most!

I would say that to a neutral this session would be a blast. USA actually seeing a way to an absolutely insane comeback. Fitz losing that 5 hole lead is crazy and now it could in fact come down to the last match if Fitz doesn't win on 18th

USA are not planning to let Europe take all 5 sessions. They're doing their best to make it exiting to the end

And Hovland is unable to play. 

His game agains Harris English (who was the golfer Bradley had selected to be left out in case of an injury) is halved meaning that Europe is now only 2 points from retaining the title

32 riders left in the race... That's a tough one!

And his temper, honestly. Keeping his head cool could have saved him so much energy, but he's a ball of rage (which is both a strength and a weakness).

But well. He did get some nice help from the cars...

In Denmark it's not on public TV, but it is on a channel that a lot of people have in their TV packages.

Evenepoel's equipment losing the race?

Oh well. Hoping for a decently silent 40 minutes because it's time for my run

Crash with some pretty solid riders down and out it seems

Yep, one of many riders who isn't really feeling well. Hence the early attack, so at least he did something.

Yeah. Let's just say that it has been interesting following the Danish chefs on social media

Bad stomach for Alaphilippe according to Danish TV.

Yeah. I like that there's a bit more atmosphere at the Ryder Cup, but it has been too much with the heckling and unsportsmanlike conduct from the American supporters this time.

But several reports from the course that it has been made clear on the big screens that it is not accepted and others report that there's extra security, especially around McIlroy's pairing.

And well. That move from DeChambeau's caddie didn't help.

Rather rowdy crowds yesterday for the fourballs, even by Ryder Cup standards. 

Don't know if it's the standings or Rory's "Shut the f* up", but the Americans certainly seems much quiter today! 

Johannesen getting threats due to the crash but Pogi is of course taking it easy
