Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics Day 0 & 1 Recap Curling Mixed Doubles United States of America vs China Result - Loss Thoughts: Like our past 4 losses we do fine in the early rounds but start making mistakes at around round 5, with this loss our chance at top 4 is over, now we just need to keep getting practice for the Men and Women tournament. I'll be rooting for Olympic Athletes from Russia for the remainder of the tournament (assuming they make top 4) as I enjoy Anastasia yelling "Sveeeeeep!" United States of America vs Norway Result - Win Thoughts: Now that's how you win a match! Very proud of the curing team as they were able to finally break the loosing streak and beat Norway who was previously 4-1. Still no way we can make it into the top 4 but still great to have a win! Snowboard Mens Slopestyle Qualification Result Thoughts: Redmond Gerard was the only USA snowboarder to qualify for the finals. He got a great Run 1 of 82.55 which secured the 3rd spot in Heat 2 of the Qualification. At only 17 years old Redmond might be able to medal in the Finals! Cross Country Skiing Women's 15km Skiatholon Result Thoughts: Jessica was able to got a solid 5th place in the Women's 15km Skiatholon, this is the highest individual woman's placement ever for USA cross country skiing (the last record being 6th place) Short Track Speed Skating Mens 1500m - Heats, Semi, Final Results: All 3 of our men competing in this event were able to get past the Heat stage. But sadly none were able to get past the semi-finals. Our highest placing athlete was Aaron Tran placing 12th. Women's 500m - Heats Results: Maame Biney was able to qualify for the semi finals as she came 2nd in her heat. Sadly Lana Gehring was unable to qualify as she came 3rd in her heat. Biathlon Women's 7.5km Sprint Results: Not the best results for our women here but we were not expecting much anyways. Emily Dreissigacker got 51st, Clare Egan got 61st, Susan Dunklee got 66th, and Joanne Reid placed 86th. Ski Jumping Mens Normal Hill Individual Results: Kevin Brickner was the only USA man to make it past round 1 in the finals, he ended up placing in 18th place. William, Casey and Michael all placed below 30th place. Luge Mens Singles - Run 1 & 2 Results: In Run 1 Chris Mazdzer was able to pick up 5th place, Taylor Morris got 15th and Tucker West got 26th. In Run 2 Chris Mazdzer got a great 2nd place, Tucker West got 15th and Taylor Morris got 32nd. If Chris can keep up the good runs he might be able to medal! After the day, we have yet to grab a medal but hopefully that will change soon!

Well that's a shame for mixed doubles curling

Gonna be staying up till 6am tomorrow morning, very excited to be able to watch all the events!

Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics Day -1 Recap Curling Mixed Doubles United States of America vs Canada Result: Loss Thoughts I was not able to watch the game live as it was 3am my time but I can see Team USA held the match close until the 5th round. 4-6 is not a bad score especially against the team expected to win gold!

We had the best shot % ending the day yesterday. Hopefully this will be a close match either way. Ski Jumping Mens: Individual - Normal Hill Qualification - 4:30am PST Team USA Michael Gladser Casey Larson William Rhoads Kevin Brickner In order to qualify: Top 50 Thoughts/Background Information Honestly I'm not sure if any of the men will qualify as they are all making their Olympic debut and they are all much better at the Large Hill. If anyone of them are to qualify I'm not exactly sure which ones have the edge. If any of you follow Ski Jumping or know anything more feel free to tell me! Curling Mixed Doubles - 3:35pm PST United States of America vs Switzerland Team USA Matt Hamilton Rebecca Hamilton Team Switzerland Martin Rios Jenney Perret Current Standings Thoughts/Background Information We lost against Canada 6-4 but had a close start against them, I think if we don't make any mistakes and play our best we might be able to beat Switzerland but they are leading the table. Figure Skating Team Event Men's Short Program - 5:00pm PST Team USA Nathan Chen Freestyle Skiing Women's Moguls Qualification 1 - 5:00pm PST Team USA Tess Johnson Jaelin Kauf Keaton McCargo Morgan Schild In order to qualify: To qualify straight for finals must be in top 10 Thoughts/Background Information This is all four Women's Olympic debut. Jaelin Kauf is currently ranked 1st in the World Cup in Moguls followed by Morgan in 7th, Keaton in 8th and Tess in 10th. These Women have a great chance of winning a medal! Freestyle Skiing Men's Moguls Qualification 1 - 6:45pm PST Team USA Casey Andringa Troy Murphy Emerson Smith Bradley Wilson In order to qualify: To qualify straight for finals must be in top 10 Thoughts/Background Information 3 of the 4 men are making their Olympic debut. Bradley Wilson has been to the 2014 Olympics placing 20th in Moguls. Bradley is currently 7th place in the Moguls World Cup standings, followed by Troy in 12th, Emerson in 13th and Casey in 20th. If Bradley can really push himself he has a possibility of getting a medal. Figure Skating Team Event Pairs' Short Program - 6:45pm PST Team USA Alexa Scimeca Knierim Chris Knierim Curling Mixed Doubles - 8:35pm PST United States of America vs South Korea Team USA Matt Hamilton Rebecca Hamilton Team South Korea Jang Hye-ji Lee Ki-jeong Current Standings Will update after USA vs Switzerland Thoughts/Background Information Will update after USA vs Switzerland I would not be surprised if I missed anything or got the times wrong NBC, Olympichannel, and NBC Olympics all had different times for events so I could not tell which ones were correct. I also have very little information about the qualification events. If you guys have any information I missed or would like added just tell me. I'm hoping this will keep everything clear so you can see all the events USA athletes are participating in.

Yeah I'll be asleep for it as I'm PST. We might be able to win vs Canada looking at how they played today, not sure if they played bad or if Norway played extremely well. Maybe a little bit of both.

Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics Schedule All times in PST Day -2 Recap Curling Mixed Doubles United States of America vs Olympic Athletes from Russia Result: Win Thoughts I'm quite surprised that USA won, I was expecting a close match with OAR winning. Hopefully this win gives Matt and Rebecca confidence going into tomorrow!

Indeed, I expected OAR to win!

USA Wins! 9 - 3

End of round 4 and currently 5 - 2 Good start for USA!

USA off to a good start leading 3-0 against Olympic Athletes of Russia

Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics Schedule All times in PST Day -2 (February 7th) Curling Mixed Doubles - 4:05pm PST United States of America vs Olympic Athletes from Russia Team USA Matt Hamilton Rebecca Hamilton Team Olympic Athletes from Russia Anastasia Bryzgalova Alexander Krushelnitskiy Current Standings Thoughts/Background Information Anastasia and Alexander won the World Mixed Doubles Championship in 2016, they also beat Matt and Rebecca on April 29th, 2017. I think this match will be semi-close but I think the Olympic Athletes from Russia will come away with the win (hopefully not though)! I will be creating these everyday for the Olympics! At the end of each day I will post a recap of the day! If there anything you think needs to be added just tell me!

Didn't even realize GP3 was on before Formula 1 and 2! I will have to check it out.

So excited for the 2018 Formula 1 season! I just started watching racing at the end of 2017! I'll be watching both Formula 1 and Formula 2!

OWL is much better than I expected it to be! I've been watching it as well!

Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics Luge Preview Men's Singles Out of the 3 men Tucker and Chris are the most likely to medal at these games but the chances of that are unlikely. Taylor Morris This will be Taylor's Olympic debut. Taylor has won a bronze medal in Lake Placid World Cup sprint race this season. Taylor is currently ranked 28th in the World. Tucker West This will be Tucker's 2nd Olympic games after finishing 22nd at the 2014 games. Tucker is ranked 18th in the World. Chris Mazdzer This will be Chris's 3rd Olympic games after finishing 13th in 2010 and 13th in 2014. Chris is currently ranked 22nd in the World. Women's Singles These Women's Singles have a good chance at getting a medal at these Olympic games as long as we keep up with the Germans. Summer Britcher This will be Summer's 2nd Olympic games after finishing 15th in 2014. Summer is coming in with a lot of momentum after finishing with a gold medal at Lilliehammer in the World Cup. Summer currently sits 3rd in the 2017-18 Luge World Cup Erin Hamlin This will be Erin's 4th Olympic games after finishing with a bronze in 2014, 16th in 2010 and 12th in 2006. This season Erin has won a Bronze in Winterberg and Silver in Winterberg Sprint. Emily Sweeny This will be Emily's first Olympic games, this season she won the Gold in Winterberg Sprint race. Doubles Matt and Jayson could possibly medal at these Olympic Games, they will need to dominate watch out for the Germans. Matt Mortensen & Jayson Terdiman Both Matt and Jayson will be making their second trip to the Olympics but the last trip they competed with different partners. Terdiman finishing 11th and Mortensen finishing 14th. Matt and Jayson are currently 5th place in the 2017-18 Luge World Cup Season. Andrew Sherk & Justin Krewson This will be both Andrew and Justin's first Olympic Games, they are currently ranked 18th in the World Cup standings.

Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics Curling Preview Men's Team The U.S. Men's curling team has won 2 bronze medals (1992, 2006) This year it's up in the air where the team will finish. A 3rd or 4th place finish would be great. The 2018 U.S. Olympic Men's Curling team will be lead by John Shuster who will skip for the team, John has been to three Olympic Games (2006, 2010, 2014) while winning the bronze medal at the 2006 games in Turin (playing in the lead position). Shusters 2014 teammate John Landsteiner and 2006 teammate Joe Polo with both make their second Olympic appearance while Tyler George (vice skip) and Matt Hamilton (second) will make their rookie appearances. Women's Team The U.S. Women's Curling team has yet to medal at an Olympics Games. As 4 of the 5 are making their debuts these games might just be a game for Olympic experience. The 2018 U.S. Olympic Men's Curling team will be lead by two time national champion Nina Roth. All five members will be making their Olympic debuts. Roth is teamed up with Tabith Peterson, Aileen Gevin, Becca Hamilton and Cory Christensen. The team finished fifth at the 2017 World Women's Championship and has had a strong 2017-18 season. Mixed Doubles As Mixed Doubles will be making it's Olympic debut it is uncertain where the U.S. team will place. Matt Hamilton and Becca Hamilton won the 2018 U.S. Mixed Doubles Team Trials, they will be competing in this event and along with their respected Men and Women team event. P.S. This is my first real post on Totallympics so I hope it's good enough. I'll try and finish all the previews before the games start!

Rocket League

Yes, I agree with everything! The 2017 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games (this September) will have eSports as a demonstration sport then the 2018 Asian games will also have eSports as a demonstration sport, then the 2022 Asian games will have eSports as a medal event. Hopefully between 2018 and 2022 we will see eSports be added to more events.

Your English is 100% better than my French. It honestly just depends on the game for example LoL has games each weekend and about 100,000+ people tune in every weekend to watch it really it just depends on if the game advertises that they are having a competition.
