  1. To be fair, there isn't much to see for the past 45 minutes or so I've switched to ice hockey on TV, the cross-country is just a formality now and can go on the small screen.
  2. I am guessing commentators everywhere call them Russians anyway, yes. Except for probably those English Eurosport commentators who read all their things from their little fact sheets I am 99% sure they go with "Russian Olympic Committee athletes" or something
  3. They were putting all their coins on winning on points, in which case Shiffrin on red is a good choice. But yeah.
  4. That was an excellent attempt by Schmid! But just shy. And Strolz does it, three golds in three events, and today gold after losing every single one of his races
  5. Curious to see if Strolz can go for a double 3-out-of-3: three golds in three events, but also today losing all three races yet getting Olympic gold
  6. That didn't work great, although putting Shiffrin on red does seem like the US's best move in this case. Edit: never mind, forgot about the added times thingy
  7. Same for the Dutch Eurosport commentator (who is usually pretty alright) Took him a full minute.
  8. They almost lucked through, but the two Norwegians who did finish were too fast
  9. Congratulations to @hckošice One of my favourite medals of Beijing 2022
  10. We had Japan as main favourite in the women's team pursuit, Canada as clear silver favourite and the Netherlands as clear bronze favourite. That event seemed pretty straightforward from the get-go, were it not for Takagi's fall
  11. Especially biathlon, where basically anyone who has a chance in a certain event has a chance in every single event. Unlike cross-country skiing (a little, but much less) and definitely way unlike speed skating. That's not to say I want fewer events, by the way
  12. Because those that are good in speed skating want to, well, stay good in speed skating And ice hockey is so tiny here, nobody really cares...you know, with some small exceptions of course.
  13. With the difference being that the sprints make literally no possible difference in the medal positions.
  14. "Normally they can't lose this." Dutch commentator about Schouten/Groenewoud. That can't go wrong!
