Heading for the home stretch and we still have medal opportunities. Men's ski halfpipe and women's mass start will be the events to watch. The 2-woman bobsled is currently in fourth and a medal is possible, but it will likely take a mistake in the top three to secure it. Additionally, the 4-men bobsled begins today which will be our final hope for a medal on the final day.

 

As much as I would love to see our alpine team luck its way into a medal, the bracket draw is very unfavourable and we already didn't have much of a chance.

No golds in freestyle skiing for the first time since 2002. There were four events then, thirteen now. Embarrassing.

It's sad, but not entirely surprising after Kingsbury was robbed.  He earned gold, just wasn't awarded it.

Kripps into 3rd after 2 runs, but it'll be very hard to move up.  

 

I know this sounds like complaining, but watching bobsled is frustrating because it doesn't really matter if anyone runs better than the Germans, their equipment will always get them down faster.  I have a friend who was a luger and he said you could go down completely clean and the Germans could bounce all over the place but it didn't matter because he was using sleds 4 years behind theirs.

I’m a bit worried that the German in 4th is going to close in on Kripps. I hate how the Germans always role out their new equipment during the Olympics.
