Bucs challenging the Packers for the worst special team match of the week!

Oh well. Just now, I see an unofficial schedule with that match indeed live at the other network. Guess that's the breakfast saved.

Then I would need to go with VPN as they don't have the rights here in Denmark.

To be fair, we have 2 different networks showing the Games and I've only seen the schedule from one. Could be that the other one shows it live. Would be very unusual for Denmark if it's not to be seen live!

Meanwhile apparently Danish TV is planning to show our ice hockey match against China three hours after it's played. It was perfect to watch it before work (just starting a new job on the 1st). Hopefully they'll have it live online!

And Iceland doesn't look like a team with several positives as well (though France is extremely bad today)

This event really is a strong candidate for most pathetic sporting event held during the pandemic!

So happy that Mona finally made it to the podium!

One miss too much, I would guess!

That's easy... 0! We have an outside chance or 2, but expecting anything would be crazy! For my second nation, it's much harder. I would say 15 medals for Sweden, though higher is in no way impossible.

Personally I give Viktor Hald Thorup a better chance than our curling team.

Just one less opponent for our upcoming bobsleigh team!

Wishing you a happy new year with some of my favourite songs from 2021 (The Danish songs will wait)

You mean the vaccination that some countries (including Denmark) stopped using back in april due to blood clots?

I think there's somebody in the local elections.

So yeah... Today had two important votes in the Swedish Parliament. First the vote for Prime Minister where Magdalena Andersson was selected. But later the parliament voted for the budget. Here, the Center Party, who have been supporting the government said that they would not support the budget put forward by the government. Therefore the budget proposed by the opposition (the Conservatives, the Christian Democrats and the right wing populist Swedish Democrats) ended up winning. The Green Party who were part of the Government does not want to govern on that budget. Therefore they announced that they would leave the government. This made Magdalena Andersson announce that she'll be stepping down to have another vote. Most likely that vote will make her Prime Minister again in a government with just the Social Democrats.

Will do, but I'm only just trying to understand it!

Yeah. I know. It's still very small in Denmark. We had a visit from Kathrine Richter a couple of years ago to talk about the project. Just doesn't feel like it's growing here in Denmark. We do have quite a few new parties right now, which could make it tougher.

Meanwhile in Denmark they got 105 votes for the municipality elections in Frederiksberg, putting them at 0,2 %. I got 0,5 % (994 votes) of the votes in Aarhus. Was only enough to make me the 1st replacement, but overall pretty proud. Volt is an interesting project, but it's still damn small in most countries.
