How wonderful! I met the national rowing (and beach rowing) coach of EST/LTU/LAT on the way to ice hockey one day, who's Canadian by the way. I also flew home on the same flight as JC Schoonmaker's mom and friends, so we chatted for a bit.

I used public transit the entire time I was in Milan. My first day was a doozy, because I had to two flights to reach Malpensa, and then the train into town was delayed, and then I got confused a station and boarded a tram instead of the metro, proceeded to travel in the wrong direction, got off, walked back to the station, found the metro, got off a station early, walked around a kilometer to my hotel, and checked in. My colleagues mostly took cabs upon arrival, but I deduced to take the frugal approach. That said, I was a true public transit professional by the time I left Milan. I actually enjoyed my rides to and from venues, because I'd just chat up fans and volunteers from different countries. It helped me learn more about the city too.

Plus, you missed out on a potential metro ride with me, which is quite priceless in my opinion

I can finally piggyback off @vinipereira predictions to deliver my own I'll be honest. I was rather busy during most of the awards season, so I wasn't able to see as much as I wanted to, or normally would have been able to. Therefore, I'm relying heavily on pundit predictions and general feel this time around. If there was a category for best poster artwork, my nominees would be: Bugonia, Eddington, Dracula, The Sound of Falling, Sirāt I'd give best animal acting to Pipa from Sirāt And my favorite scenes from the year are... Kids getting bewitched, Weapons Gladys getting her just desserts, Weapons Car chase, One Battle After Another I Lied To You, Sinners Turn that shit up, Sirāt Playing with arrows, The Love That Remains Street dance, The Life of Chuck Cold open, Warfare Final scene, The Plague Ship prayer, The Testament of Ann Lee

Right agreements vary by event. Peacock has a good bit of road cycling too.

Oh, cool. I haven't looked that far ahead (when it comes to non multi-sport games competitions) just yet. I was lucky enough to the go the UIPM World Cup the last time it was in LA in 2017. We actually had an awesome double that week, with the both modern pentathlon and track cycling in town. I went to both, and had a lot of fun at both

I've been told this so many times in the past month

No, I was busy providing remote coverage of Paris 2024
