which boys, we have more ads
cries in ads
idc about The Voice, peacock
The big head composers
YEAH
we're back
Ah they just gave away that the arch is where the cauldron is
How are you now ahead of me
Whoops I cried at seeing Sam
Im getting emotional at this ngl
WOMEN IN STEM
My commentator specifically just said about the 8 planets
I admit I had no faith in this opening ceremony and the multiple sites but I am very glad to have been proven wrong
I have shivers lol
Such a pretty cauldron
And I cried again when I saw Sam give the sun to the little girl
Oh wow they do the movement of the cauldron every hour on the hour
Well they spent the firework budget well didn’t they
Well that was fun my loved
ahhh not a great start this morning, Jessie Diggins is a minute behind the leaders in the 10k+10k skiathlon
at halfway through
The Swedish team's technicians did better than anyone else with the wax, they're speculating.
Red flag on ski jump and is that enough leaf blowers.
She ended up top ten at least. It’s about where she’s been in that one. Five more events to go.
Breezy good skiing name.
Vonn 3rd there after her ACL injury, a good sign.
I need our
skiiers to come through this week.
I think she’s still holding back until the final run
Bless Peacock for Multi view.
Can’t believe curling mixed doubles is sent to Peacock before 10am in most of the country.
I need to go 15 feet down the hall for peacock. I’ll do it I’m just complaining.
Yeah I dont like how early curling is. T,T It is an early morning sport Whyyyyy
Womens Speed Skate 3km is up soon
Gold Zone is also back.
I forgot about gold zone.
RIP my girlfriend I’m supposed to be picking up in like an hour
As someone I like on bluesky said, it just doesn’t matter as much for the Winter Olympics as summer cause there are 1/3 as many events
Well, like many things, Bluesky people hate fun.
So you just aren’t going to have the same crush of gold medal events happening at the same time
Well let me represent him accurately
I still like them going through the events for me.
I do plan on watching like 7 hours of GoldZone per day but I will say the utility of GoldZone is a bit lesser during the Winter Olympics than the Summer ones. 1/3rd as many events, there just aren't gonna be as many moments when multiple medal events are happening at the same time.
He’s a niche sports nut and does a whole daily newsletter during the Olympics I haven’t signed up for 😂
No but same
Screaming at curling to someone doing a backflip on skis perfect day
My beef with Peacock rn is that the Olympics have 500000000 ads on every stream even if you have the no ads subscription. Guys come on
Nothing But Commercials living up to their name.
Okay speed skating let's go.
Also man, is this true. I follow literally about seven people on bluesky and they’re all funny people and that made nice except that they live in the world and so post about ICE between goofs and man, somehow that all still adds up to bluesky sure does hate fun
Oh we have drones now.
I literally signed up this morning for the month cause I’m also having a Super Bowl party tomorrow and then I didn’t have to worry about futzing with someone else’s account, and I was looking at the options to figure out which option I needed to pay for and picked the one that didn’t say ads, logged in on my tv AND THERE WAS AN AD
I was so annoyed
Yeah. Never again. Cheapest tier for my watch-the-Olympics-then-cancel every two years from now on.
My VPN is connected through a Chicago server and Peacock is serving me Ohio ads. It's very confused.
I got a subscription to HBO here because I wanted to watch Heated Rivalry finally (🏴☠️ can be a bit risky here) and I apparently got the Olympics included which is kinda ironic somehow
Currently heavily judging the US team in curling with my 4.5 mins of experience
Listen this is unexpected for them
Oh I’m sure absolutely, I’m just continuing my trend of judging Olympics sports with absolutely no justification or experience that would merit me being able to do so.
This is the way
It does say there will still be limited Ads in a no ad tier so I just have the lowest tier
Should be illegal
Why is this speed graphic for Lindsey Vonn’s run (being shown on goldzone rewind) in km
This is an American broadcast for Americans use freedom units damnit
It causes the mountain in Italy to fall
Like into the ground.
I need Biathalon to start
If it knows that it’s being represented elsewhere incorrectly?
The German multiview broadcast assumes everyone speaks German and English cause the commentary is in one or the other semi randomly, this is just the unit equivalent 😆
Oh mens Big Air Snowboard metal is tonight
And Womens Ski Jumping.
And Figure skating is today
Ah man Biathalon is tomorrow
I should make breakfast
I also need breakfast.
Bagel and lox time
So many Minnesotan women/Frost players at these games. Not a big hockey person but for the Olympics I am, much like soccer!
yesss goal USA!
...sir I don't think you've ever seen a Federico "Ferlini" film
I saw the celebration with her kid.
Im focusing on Mens Single Luge
USA SCORE
AND TEH GOAL SONG IS THE FREE BIRD SOLO
USA USA USA
@ Ferrari you hear that lol you wish it was you
I realized the Netherlands was fourth that’s why she looked sick
Yeah to not have orange on the podium at all is a shock.
There is a lot of Orange at Mens Luge
"normal hill" is so funny to me. It's normal. Why would you ask. everything about this hill is perfectly normal. Promise. 🤞🏻
Just a normal one.
Show me the Wacky Hill Ski Jump.
The leaf blowers for the Ski Jump makes me laugh
I thought ski jumpers were crazy and then I stood at the top of a ski jump run (in the summer) and thought they were really crazy and then someone pointed out I was stood at the top of the one they use for kids 😆
oh USA up 3-0 on Finland now!
Also the red flags
My life has improved, I’ve discovered I have the choice of commentary from every view on the multi viewer in either German, English, French, Italian, Swedish or Norwegian.
They got norovirus
49 out of the 50 female ski jumpers being younger than me is a nice reminder of how old I’m getting
He’s hitting the walls
The president doesn’t even know you left, dear.
Wow more curling.
the Canadian accent on the color commenator is thick
This is definitely true but I decided it just makes the rare 8-screen moments that much sweeter
I tragically left my house to like, be social and do things in the world 😔
I haven’t watched anything today I’m a FAILURE
My baby was watching hockey while I finished painting touch ups and cleaned at the new house. Now we’re back and watching the figure skating men’s short program
No this is so real. Like, it seems insane watching it but it is so much wilder if you have ever seen a ski jump hill in person
Omg, living the dream
Do I really see Eteri Tutberidze
Tina showing up in the Womens Hockey game
ah yes my favourite georgian ice dancers, a pair consisting of an american born russian with russian parents and a russian born russian with russian parents…
Yeah that seems to be a thing with the ban, move to one of Russia's client states to compete under a flag again. There was a speed skater who switched to Uzbekistan IIRC.
The American born Russian daughter of the infamous coach Eteri.
Ms. Davis.
oh i didnt even connect those dots
boo them
I fell down a rabbit hole today lol I saw Eteri… almost jumped off my chair.
I had to see if she was actually there or I was seeing ghosts.
I keep learning Diana is her daughter and forgetting.
how is she not banned honestly
She should have been banned before her skaters just for them not making it to 17.
Okay now events of the day are over.
Evan & Madison were a great way to cap off the day
putting it on record that the only american sports person i’ll ever root for is ilia malinin
Ailish I’m so glad you’re back to talk Olympics with us
Is this just cause he’s That Good?
could never resist the group olympic discourse
Have I missed him completely?
For today I think so yeah, the events are done for the day
I mean over the Olympics
But nothing is over yet 😂
Will I see quad god
Sam you’re making me Google something at 22:36 you’re now on the list
yesssssss it was only part 1 of the team event so definitely much more ilia
It looks like most of the figure skating starts like just after I get home from work which is excellent
I thought about taking a day trip on my day off on Thursday but I saw there was things such as speed skating and moguls having and I’m having second thoughts.
Also - dog.
He would be upset for me to go 3-4 hours away to his birth town without him
I love moguls and aerials of the alpine events.
I’ve never been skiing even after growing up going to Tahoe to see family. My mom hated snow that much.
I think I’m watching highlights of hockey and I’m quite enjoying it
Woman’s downhill time!!!
I’m watching and just learned they do like 90mph (freedom units for Sam) which feels insane
Oof that was close
Will admit it’s more fun to be able to cheer for my adopted country when there aren’t any Brits 😆
I believe I’m a true neutral for this event
Oh there’s a few French I’ll go for them
But I want Vonn to do well
Oh god
Yeah it’s taking a while for the medical team
Oh god you can hear her screaming
But I don’t know what the norm is here
Oh she hit the gate with her shoulder
Okay they really should have cut the audio
Hearing her is stomach wrenching
Like no one needs to hear that
The dj music isn’t helping ngl
Feel for the other athletes too
I imagine this is a fairly small field of people and they know each other so it must be awful mentally to think my friend is in agony and I’m about to do the same course
And like I know it does happen in this sport
But to get yourself int he headspace to think you’re next and then have this big wait
They’ve turned the audio off for her screams thank god
Oh goodness the commentator who’s at the bottom of the piste is really emotional like crying
Why the hell they didn’t do that before. I guess I’m just used to motorsport which is usually pretty good
Oh she’s a retired alpine skier that makes sense it’s one of her friends/colleagues
Oh man what a horrible situation to be in
Snoop looking awkward in the crowd
The one going after the next person is one of the best friends of Vonn
Goggia
A helicopter is coming
Hooray for the helicopter
Apparently it’s a really bad sign that they’re not putting her inside the helicopter
The comm here is saying that it’s because they don’t want to jostle her around getting her in and out
I assume they now have to wait until the heli has dropped Vonn off before they’re allowed to start again
Ah no there’s a second heli
Interesting. But I guess they need multiple cause sometimes there can be multiple sports
At the same time
Owwww
God tough to go first after the crash
That time from breezy is looking impressive, especially on this middle section
Oh I didn’t know they had auto inflating vests
That airbag is hilarious tho
Glad to see her ski down at least
look who’s at the Olympics
Stefano
Seb
Haha I didn’t even notice initially
SEB
Man is everywhere but a racetrack
he makes the grid do arts and crafts occasionally
Fair play to him this is exactly what I’d do on my retirement
He was at a movie premiere the other week
True when he needs to come back as grid kindergarten teacher
he’s just vibing
I don’t think anyone is going to beat Breezy at this point
Oh man breezy doesn’t know what to feel I don’t think
Oh she’s crying
Bless her
Theyre all a bit older these athletes
Like compared to some sports where you have 16 year olds
Those slippers just going straight past my dude someone is on the floor
The commentator here just said the cameras should go away in these moments and I 100% agree
BBC are acting as if Breezy has won but there’s still skiers to go isn’t there?
I mean as far as I know, yes?
Oh someone is pending DSQ
Yeah there was a person who took too long at the start gates due to adjusting equipment I think
Not a doctor but your knee definitely isn’t meant to do that
Vonn’s doctor who did her knee was on the mountain and in the helicopter with her, she’s got to the cortina hospital but they can’t give her the best care so she’s going to a bigger hospital
That’s good but indeed seems like the serious injury it looked like
Also saying here like the gold is guaranteed
Im sure it is considering everything but still a bit rude to say it
Oh breezy crashed in cortina years ago and was injured which meant she couldn’t go to the Beijing Olympics, no wonder she’s emotional
Oh I’ve been switched over to the skiathlon
Unwillingly
Even when I click on the alpine downhill program it’s making me watch the skiathlon
Nooo
Oh I’m now on the snowboarding
But no option for the downhill
How dare they switch me over to a men’s sport when there are women to watch
Im tempted to get discovery+ so i can watch all sports, BBC seems to just have 2 streams at a time
I’m enjoying it
You might not get too bad a deal either
Also there are very few ads
It’d £3.99 a month so very cheap
Yeah I’d say that’s worth it
Some how I’ve been forced back to the men’s 10+10 wtf
The Norwegians.
Is biathlon the ski and shoot
Omg big drama in the snowboarding parallel slalom
Uh huh?
Top seed current champion out in the quarters
The sound of the drones is seriously driving me nuts
mosquito whine mixed with wheezing child
Number one seed out in the men’s too!!!??
Same
At home as well
He fucked it for himself
True
And it completely obscures the sound of the skiing/snowboarding which I love
Double Italian DNF one of whom was top seed is Ferrari-esque suffering
Good to know it’s a country wide vibe
« You’ve got to have the patience of a Montessori school teacher » I’m dead 😂
I was watching the replay of yesterdays events and the moment the Italian anthem played I perked up
I was like “the Italian anthem??? From monza 2024????”
Payer looks so chilled
Oh I can’t with how happy the Korean coaches were
Wow
Excellent comeback in that race
I can’t when they cry it just makes me emotional
You can just tell all the effort
Yeah
Losing the small final must be the worst thouhu
Haha autocorrect is mean
photo finish!
I do think if it’s a photo finish in the small final they should both get a bronze
Aww they’re having a cuddle too
I guess they all know each other unlike some other Olympic sports
omg the fingertip
Thats such a dead heat
like the sprinters leaning forward to get their body across the line first
Happy for Bulgaria
The Slovenian coming from 15th seed to 4th overall is still brilliant
My commentators are now discussing rugby
Rugby, snowboarding, same thing
I’m pulling for Kim
Karl fully stripping
I was too
STRIP STRIP STRIP
lol go off dude
Must suck if you spend all those hours in the gym but do a winter sport so no one gets to see it 🤣
Ok freeze your nipples off that’s a choice
Awww the Korean coaches look so happy
Lmfao he’s essentially doing a walk of shame with his clothes
France leading the biathlon relay by a good margin, bah
Oh the French are leading in the mixed relay biathlon allez les bleus
Come on Norway, get in there!
Very different reactions from the two of us 😂
Skiing uphill always looks so goofy
EXCELLENT
ALLEZ LES BLEUS
Norway is not going well omg
But Italy is omg
I love how they’re all waiting at the end for each other
Good morning. I just woke up and the first thing i turn on is CURLING.
I’ve now switched to the curling
Our curlers from Duluth choked yesterday hopefully they can get back on track and pull this one out on Estonia
Its 2 -2 right now for US/Est
Canada and Sweden tied too 👀
All of the games are super tight and enjoyable
GB is losing
I mean they arent down 7-1. italy is killin git.
GB can come back
We’re already guaranteed to the semi’s anyway
There’s a lot of shouting in curling
Im ngl i have no idea what is going on
We have to have one winter Olympic sport we’re kinda okay at
"I LOVE THAT" The US guy yells at the women
I’m only seeing the GB match
Someone was whistling the Jeopardy theme song.
Peacock shows all 4 lanes turning curling
Swiss have got it
Speed skating now.
Sir what is this phone case
lololol
They have a heart rate monitor on the parents.
A+ for the father wearing at Pats shirt
I’ve caved and got discovery+
Ok I am watching my first ever hockey match
Oh I love the Swedish uniforms
I love that the women wear full face guards coz they’re not stupid enough to get their teeth knocked out
There’s a leclerc playing for France
Who just got mashed against the boards because of course
We love seeing how many PWHL players are playing
Canada VS US is just a PWHL game
It’s interesting that they’re allowing professional players
I love it. the PWHL enabled those in the US and Canada to train and focus cull time on their sport
The team that clean the ice are the local junior team
What’s a power play goal
When someone is in the penalty box from the other team and the one with the advantage makes a goal.
FUCK OFFFFF VANCE
just don't even show his stupid face on the coverage. the whole world knows he's there and we don't want to see him
How many periods are there in a game
three
I saw his face when I opened Peacock I almost went out the window
I'm sorry France this is going to be a massacre
haha, French fans with the Paris games mascot hats
I love it
I know that luge requires skill and athleticism but them lying flat makes me think I could do it
Yeah. It's hard to really see what they're doing, the motions to guide the sled are so visually subtle.
I'm sure I would just carom back and forth between the walls.
Im pretty sure im too heavy to make it move
Or would I make it go ever quicker
Gravity and all
Gravity would do its thing. I don't know how the level of pressure pushing the rails into the ice affects it, or if it does.
But you could go down the hill.
I would never try anyway I hate rollercoasters
And it’s basically a deadly rollercoaster
Oh I love rollercoasters but I would never try an 80mph sled 😱
Betsy is making biscuits on my unprotected thigh
I’m trying to stay still to not scare her away but oooooof baby girl
The chicken hats are back!!!
I turned it on this morning and got the speed skating and then they tried to switch me to biathlon and I went the fuck back even though it was a resurfacing break because now I’m invested 😂
They kept switching me from women’s sport to men’s I was getting real mad
I saw a reel where Poland's mascot is a PEROGI
Oh Eminem at the ice hockey
Ope the American is not medaling in the men’s 5k speed skating
I love the Paralympics mascot
His music playing not him actually there
Oh my god they’re forcing Europeans to drink corona at the Olympics that’s cruel
lol
Do assists just get recorded like to say « good job » or is there a reason
I now have multiview!!!
They are counted towards the player's stats
But not like for points or anything? So basically just to show you’re a good team player
I love watching Luge and seeing the little dront follow closely just a little black dot following them for the first 1/3rd ofthe track
Yeah basically. It is a stat for coaches to get top score people with those that know how to pass so they can get the most goals
That Norwegian is going blooming fast
Oh my god the hair when they take the hat bits off is hilarious
I don’t think it was expected. As usual the men are disappointing.
They've been saying this is the strongest US speed skating team in a long time, maybe ever... but that still doesn't mean we're anywhere near expected to grab a ton of hardware
Women are always better
And he had a bad start so if he’d been better then he would’ve possibly had WR
We have some chances. But the Dutch and Norwegians are crazy.
It’s how they get to school.
Jesus I looked away from the Hockey game and I think Sweeden will win
France are not doing well
If you're not Nordic or North American you're at a disadvantage. Hockey country.
Omg did that luge guy nearly fall off
Yeah
Oops
Ouch
Gravity is mean
I mean, he's still an Olympian no matter what.
Yep
No, but the announcers were talking about this guy as being one of the top ones in contention for a medal and how it would be the first American medal in 20 years in this distance
Were they American commentators
Well yes naturally 😂
Don’t they all get a certificate saying this. Remember women’s halfpipe skiing a couple years ago. A woman masterminded her way on via Hungary.
Everyone crying
@torn viper I understand you don’t go here, but they were talking about this speed skating guy and how he also does inline skating and is one of the greatest inline skaters of all time, and the big event in that one is the Berlin(?) marathon(?) and he’s won it like seven times, he’s been SO dominant, and I heard your voice in my head being like you just know they are sick of him (his competitors, I mean)
Bronze medal is always happiest lol
They finally posted but are giving hockey injury updates.
Romainia's Luge suit looks cool
I knew something would hapen to Lindsey. She shouldnt have completed
That guy in 2nd looks really unimpressed
They are going to throw him in a harbor next to marc marquez
Exactly 😂
Not much of a fight there
I apologize to all the Dutch for only knowing Max Verstappen as a representative of your country 😔
#formula1 #f1 #maxverstappen #olympics #milanocortina2026
393
lol they’re explaining to the podium sitters what to do
Oshit fight
This is like the number one factor in me refusing to pick up following new sports or racing series. Cannot deal with the same guy winning all the time
THE LITTLE MASCOT PLUSHEIS FOR THE WINNERS
This is taking a long time
I think this is the perfect time to shower before the figure skating starts
I’m going to have to fight to keep the figure skating on the tv for all events because the Super Bowl preview will be in full swing by then
Oh is that today too?
it starts at 6pm est
Cool I can watch Green day and bad bunny tomorrow
green day is going to be real intersting today as yesterday duing the Spotify concert Billie told ICE officers to quit their jobs.
It's hilarious that Green Day was their choice for "omg we need someone who's not brown" because....... this is what Billie does
That was my thought! Like clearly the people who chose Green Day have never listened to Green Day 💀
I’ve seen so many comments “I’m a republican bur I’ve always liked green day, it’s not about politics” and I’m like “you really haven’t listened to a single lyric, have you?”
Someone is sniffing on the hockey commentary
I may look like an idiot but I’m not taking chances with the polo bear sweater
#olympics #teamusa #polobear #winterolympics #milanocortina2026
5332
Gold zone just showed the Austrian snowboarder removing his shirt and yelling, a snow plank
As someone who always spills food down myself I find this extremely relatable 💀
I was wonderwhy it showed that
Lol @silk zephyr you would like this.
Why is this so accurate
Group fight!
The German commentator in the luge is just repeating how chill and focused the German guy who’s in the lead is and I don’t know if that’s true or he’s just trying to convince himself 😆
OUCH omg I just saw Lindsey's crash on replay
I saw pictures, that is enough
absolutely brutal
I mean I get why, when something is the passion of your life you'll put everything and more into it, but how many times can you shred the soft tissues in your legs before it's just not realistic anymore
I saw the update that she was stable but I just feel like she shouldn’t have been allowed to run
it's so gutting 😭
Doesn’t she already have a knee replacement
Yes
I have the whole event replay going because I wasn't awake, hopefully I will see Breezy end up in a good position at least
Right knee partial replacement and then tore her left ACL a week or so ago
Time for a total
Probably both at this point
I get that this is the last Olympics ever with this event but I just think this was too dangerous for her
Yep she's in the titanium crew. And in winter sports too, I swear I can feel my screws when it's deep cold outside.
Oof
Yeah my mums been complaining more on colder days and she got her knee replaced last September
They’re getting rid of the downhill and potentially the Nordic combined?
Remember she’s affiliated with Red Bull
She’s doing to end up in the second seat.
why would you get rid of the downhill from the Winter Olympics
Wait I might be getting confused
I was watching the skiing and the snowboarding at the same time and one of them is ending
that would be like saying eh we don't need freestyle swimming at the summer games. it's too classic
I still haven’t showered lol I’ve been contemplating it
Afaik they were talking about removing the snowboarding I watched today, the parallel something?
Don’t know about the skiing
Im going to step away to take care of more chores. We know Sweden is going to win this hockey
game
Luge is having fun
team skate in 20 mintues
Ah then yes I got them confused
The right-wing outrage grift always continues regardless of reality.
They’re also so upset to find out how much of the US Ski and Snowboard team are not conservative.
Really a freak ski crash and not related to her knee initially.
It’s just terribly sad
I still think it’s awful they didn’t mute her screams
Saw someone comment on Facebook that it’s a normal part of skiing and like sure ok but that doesn’t mean you have to broadcast someone in clear agony to the world
Italy noises in Luge
This is also why you will never catch me going down a mountain on skis.
I am showered and ready for figure skating
My mom didn’t let me get on skis or snowboard in Tahoe growing up due to knee injury fears
🇩🇪 pulling out the gold in luge by half a second, of course 
Without breaking a sweat
The German commentator almost got to a level I would call excited 😆
I think he’s crying.
I want a Team D hat
I can’t cope when they’re so overwhelmed, it makes me emotional
That and her not really moving was was honestly one of the most harrowing things I’ve seen/heard in sport. They need to get far better at cutting away from the audio and video in those moments. Adds absolutely nothing.
The video was fine once the medics got there because I liked seeing that she was being tended to, like when one guy put his jacket over her, but they could’ve done so in silence
More curling but the US is probably going to fall to Sweden here
Oh you can hear him crying
Also made sure to mention that the Austrian guy who came second has German parents 😆
oh we got the turbo-Canadian commentator again here on the 🇺🇸 vs 🇸🇪 match 😂
Awwwww the video call 😭
I love that they continued that after introducing it during the pandemic
I’d want to be Italian if I was very very good at a sport cause the celebrations are great
A happy silver medalist?! What is this!
Jesus a second crash requiring medevac in the women's downhill?!
Oh yeah and the slippers just went straight past her not going to help
Apparently that’s what they’re told to do but it does seem horrendous
Glad I grew up Norwegian-American going cross-country skiing and not getting anywhere near a mountain.
They have two helicopters available during the downhill at least because of former incidents which occurred when one helicopter had already taken somone else
Awww the British brooms for the curling have lil union flags on them
Yeah I thought there would be a longer delay after Vonn to get the helicopter back but they had a spare
Heir and spare always the way
I love that they prepare the trays all fancy with gloves
It took the commentator explaining to me for me to understand why they’re called milo and Tina 🙈
oooh ok, we're tied now
I love that Tina is an amputee and uses her tail as a leg 🥹
Omg I just saw the video of the Italian medal winner running and getting her son 🥹
Ngl I only just figured it out as you said it I thought they were just cute names
I got that from her sister appearing on my TikTok fyp, love modern tech
My only complaint about this multiviewer is I can’t seem to get rid of the sports I don’t care as much about
They’ll be some happy Germans tomorrow, they were running a promotion here where if you got a special railcard, you got free travel the day after Germany wins a gold
Lmfao nice
« The pride of Canada, the ameri- Canadian national champions » you alright there babe
Someone’s already updated the luge winner’s Wikipedia. You can be fast but not as fast as Wikipedia editors
Wait really??
Apparently snowboard parallel giant slalom and Nordic combined
Under consideration, will decide based on data from these games
The Nordic Combined is men’s only and the women have been protesting them not adding it to the Olympic thing and the IOCs response is that they’re investigating if they should even keep the men’s even before even thinking of adding women’s event even once
It’s on the World Cup circuit.
Of course that’s their approach
Yeah.
Can’t give women equality, they’d rather take from the men first
HE’S SO CANADIAN
It’s ski jumping and cross country, they don’t need a different course right
Ellie Kam
The snowboarding was really close and exciting today too
God I wish for once in my life we can just get ice Skating with NO COMMENTARY
Ellie yes
I can actually turn it off on Eurosport
We’ve only had like 3 comments
I cant turn it off due to how im watching
Tara Lipinski & Johnny Weir are yappers.
I need to watch all my sports
I was gonna say mute it but then you wouldn’t hear the music 😂 I’m not smart
Man I love this version of this beatles music
Oh that lift is so fun
I always hold my breath with the throws
Im just singing along at this point 😂
God damn
Do they have like extra material on the thighs to stop the blades digging in
Ice stakes are not that sharp tbh
gorgeous routine 😍
Oh she’s crying
On the topic of Johnny Weir, this amused me https://bsky.app/profile/laurentheisen.bsky.social/post/3mecrgg6q3k2p
Me watching figure skating: Wow he skates so pretty!
Johnny Weir as soon as the music stops: A disgraceful performance. Horrible. I'm going to have nightmares about it for years.
517
Today there was one routine that actually looked nice and Johnny was like “you hear how the skates sound like they’re scratching against the ice? That’s how you know they’re not doing a good job”
-# Lauren Theisen (@laurentheisen.bsky.social)
Me watching figure skating: Wow he skates so pretty!Johnny Weir as soon as the music stops: A disgraceful performance. Horrible. I'm going to have nightmares about it for years.
287
Oh it did show the embed
That’s so annoyingly inconsistent
Anyway that
I dont think I have the commentators with Weir
Her dress is gorgeous
Time to go to the Kiss and Cry section
The British commentator is basically saying she was getting emotional and had goosebumps
She saved the triple toe loop so well
I thnk I have the british comms team.
Let me record
I found a stream of the figure skating without commentary but I need the commentary to know if they are doing well because it all looks amazing to me.
Is this what you’re hearing? @last chasm
Maybe?
Ooo The Gladiator soundtrack.
USA Curling up 6-4 against Sweden.
They described it as sensitive and serene.
The Americans were more fun
I am glad I checked.
Betsy is sitting on me AGAIN
That’s a big cross to be wearing in a competition where it’s likely to smack you in the face
Oh no Italy
What a stumble
They’ve kept it together!
A good recovery
Oh I love that lift with the turns
"That is 3 throws completed.......well" what a pause the comms team had
You are on the same comms as me 😂
OK YEAH
how are you getting BBC comms Misty
ah

did not know this - kinda surprising that they let her back in the team but then again also not
On Discovery+
Im on the Multiview top events on Peacock.
its the Venue feed it says
Okay that must be TNT.
Yes Italians do talk with their hands
I'm on the Peacock dedicated stream for the figure skating
I had that on but I also need to keep an eye on Curling
I just noticed her knee is totally taped up
I have four separate windows opened tiled on my screen
I’m using Gold zone so they’re switching for me but I also have a clogged ear, so I mostly hear the crowd and not them talking
15 year old in the snowboarding. Didn’t quite realised we’ve got to Olympians who could be my children but apparently we’re here
I was on multi view with audio from the skating but I couldn’t see the skating super well lol
Women's downhill replay, figure skating, 🇨🇭vs 🇳🇴 curling, 🇺🇸 vs 🇸🇪 curling for me
On the multi viewer on the TV I couldn’t take off the two curling streams to just see skating and snowboard
I might open up the curling stream with all 4 curling games
This is making me want to learn to skate
Genuinely thought that was someone’s phone
That was fun
It was!
I laughed after their pose where they just sat on the ice.
Meet the 2026 U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Team leadership group 🇺🇸 #WinterOlympics

Im happy for my boi Charlie but a Tkachuck ugh
TOMATO TOMATO TOMATO
the different commentary is so weird
I went once on a temporary rink here. My quads and hamstrings complained for days.
I switched to multiview for curling and now I'm getting commentary from a Scottish lady on the US match instead of the most Canadian man who has ever lived
I have not heard of this Most Canada man yet.
This means you weren't watching the skateboarders in the summer olympics two years ago, cause those children really were like, young teens
I think I blocked that one out
They were pissed at that score
Lol the skateboards are like 12 against 20 year olds it’s hysterical.
Another gladiator soundtrack song
Excellent though
WOW
Oh I love the Olympic ring glasses 😂
Oh that’s so cute from the Americans
Curling staying incredibly close. 🇺🇸/🇸🇪 & 🇳🇴/🇨🇭 both tied
I just turned on the gb-Italy match and the commentator is Scottish and I genuinely thought for a second they were speaking German 🙈 (yes I did grow up like 10 miles from Scotland 😆)
Breezy has already broken her medal
lol
that AI slop background for Amber talking about Magic the Gathering, gross
NBC. Guys. There's no shortage of actual art by human artists in that game you could have used.
We’ve got a nice feature on Kaori
Girl
yay, US definitely moving on to the medal rounds in curling
Aww the K/Coreys celebrating is cute especially after they struggled the last 2 matches
That is adorable and I hope the Polish athletes do better knowing the pierogi is cheering then on.
This is a terrible time for me wanting to take a nap
Oh dear
I admire anyone doing this where you have to continue after falling/messing up slightly on the first one cause I would want to quit there and then and the rest would definitely go terribly
Yes definitely a very strong ending!
Does anyone know in more detail about the yellow vs green boxes? What I could find was green = element okay, yellow =element under review but I’m not sure if that’s accurate or what that exactly means
Yeah I think it’s a possibility of a down grade if it’s yellow
Certainly an interesting choice in music
we have a british-russian commentating (on TNT) and she will only say nice things about the figure skaters who are georgian-competing russians 🙃
TLDR:
green - good
yellow - under review
red - bad
Ah I noticed that bias and I was confused cause I didn’t know the background
Speaking of US athletes making MAGA enraged. Amber is on a break from social media because of right wing hate after she, as a queer woman, factually noted that it's been hard for the community under Trump
Is that Louise Walden?
Me leaning when amber jumped
no she’s called tiffany zahorski
Oh my TNT comms are different
I was getting confused coz I was like Louise is being super nice about everyone 😂
the US coach's name is Damon Hill?
Oh she’s crying
A 138.62
i wish some of them went a little more whimsical with their music choices, compete your exhibition routines!!
I always like how it’s the opposite. If you had to wait behind two people in a supermarket queue “it was a total nightmare.” If you’ve just failed to do as well as you hoped at the Olympics you “look a little forlorn”
Equally if you’ve won a gold medal “well, I’ve had worse days”
I love Kaori
Considering the issues they’ve had with the regular music I think that would’ve caused a night mare
That was lovely
She looks so happy

I say with little to no experience
I just love how happy she looks
The comms are saying she’s won 😂
The whole Japanese team just looks so happy
Sorry to the Americans but I’m team Japan 😆
I love her so much she’s so happy
It's all on Quad God now.
No offence but I hope he can’t do any quads
He can skate fine, just can’t be spectacular
We need to have a decent chance for everyone
Oh YMCA TIME
The big air face plant, ouch.
WAKE ME UP BEFORE YOU GOGO
can someone check on the japanese team member who has been crying every single time the cameras have shown him
Hans Zimmer is a brilliant film composer but ban him from figure skating so we get something different please
I do love interstellar tho 😂
it's really good just overdone
He is!
Getting to skate an almost perfect routine at your home Olympics
That’s magical
Im tearing up a bit ngl
Oh that was wonderful. I do agree this music is overdone but hearing the crowd start out silent and get louder and louder until they almost overpowered the music was wonderful
Lmao he nearly jumped straight over the boards
To do that under that amount of pressure too
F1 style celebration running over to the team and leaping into their arms
simply beautiful
Proves as well he’s gone for quality over quantity
Simply lovely
He nearly launched himself into them too
Oh the judges smiling at him at the end too they knew he’d done it
Loved seeing him smile towards the end too
I do think even if you don’t know a sport well you can tell when someone is just in that flow state
This type of crying I don’t mind hearing
oh wow
Heck I’m crying
I love when you see someone have one of those moments they’ll remember for the rest of their lives
He has taken his country to an Olympic medal
Gasly sitting alone on the top step of the podium is one of those stuck in my mind
The camera following Sato
I don’t know how the judges count how many turns they do
He's saving the quad axel for the individual.
Yeah idk either I guess you get an eye for it. They spin so fast
😬
Big air snowboard they’re like that’s a 1080 and I’m like sure
The gasp I gusped
For some skaters you see them doing the big jumps and they lose all their artistry but annoyingly Ilia can do both
Yeah I know what you mean
The slip and wobbles were unfortunate, going to keep it close
ilia, my guy
but that quad salchow into triple axel was still beyond
the backflips are outrageous
incredible
I think he knows it’s pretty much clinched and wants to save it for the singles
the japanese only has 3 quads, i fear his technical might not be able to overtake that
ilia’s saving his quint for the singles
Yeah he’s got the base values that’ll take him up
Yeah the base is so good that he can do it imperfectly and still basically be almost unbeatable surely
I still think the back flip is not needed
Kind of like Simone Biles & Rebeca Andrade where they can flub a little bit but their base difficulty is so nuts it's okay
I agree, almost seems distasteful 😆
im so here for the back flips
I love them yeah
maybe he can compete…
he's nailing everything
He couldn’t have done much more
Oh that was excellent
Idc I preferred that
Kaori is sobbing again
It just looked so effortless and light and airy on his jumps
Definition of you can only control what you do, not what anyone else does
"It's going to come down to a kitten's whisper" - haven't heard that one before Johnny
Can I offer you a kittens whisker
aw Kaori
I never know what Johnny is going to say next.
I agree with the commentator I’ve got, Sato has more artistry and Ilia is more showy
He’s devastated and the team is happy
That’s such mixed emotions
That was basically his seasons best score for that free skate.
Yeah it was
cheering for ilia only but not USA
They get their medals now and not in 2028
I’m really a rare watcher but at some point it felt like to me that, especially in the men’s, it became showy over artistry being rewarded which is a reasonable choice but not necessarily what I’d choose
Oh Sato
Oh he’s so devastated I’m sad
He did so well
He couldn’t have done that routine better I don’t think
It was perfect
I did not think it was a 5 mark difference but I guess that’s the base values for Ilia
yeah his technical was 4 higher, even with his -5 execution on his failed quad
Yeah at that point there’s not much you can do
It was entirely in technical
This is Ilia's first Olympics. What are we going to see in 2030 and 2034? Scary.
I don’t know how to spell his name but the guy who did the short program for Japan has a seasons best higher score which much have taken them over so does Sato feel bad that he skated
i doubt that was his decision though
crazyyyyy
Kagiyama?
No of course not his decision but maybe he’s like I should’ve said no
I’m exhausted from watching all day.
My butt is a bit numb now
I do like that the team competition came down to the mens
No one ran away with it
Also Italy
lol we’re getting a replay of Ilia and when he stumbled the commentator said « that was an incident »
The little girls screaming for him I bet that’s a core memory for them
The Canadian skater got distracted by Djokovic in the stands lmaooo
Also this would happen to her.
The Italians just got shouted at to shut up lol
In their own house? Rude.
They’re trying to get them all there for the ceremony 😂
He doesn’t want them to delay it and wait 2 years to get it in LA
Time for bed. JD Vance might cut off traffic.
Oh finally
He’s still there. Sadly.
I would give substantial amounts of money to charity to see this man attempt to break dance
Three medals have fallen off now.
Was it Paris, the ones that corroded?
Now they’re falling off the ribbon.
This amused me so much
Its the little T Bar that connects the medal to the ribbon, it sucks ass
Billions spent lining the pockets of developers and clearing out areas of the city of those pesky poor people and they can't even properly attach the medals to the ribbons.
I don’t care if it’s 2026, 2034 is a fake year that won’t happen
Sam don't manifest that 2034 won't happen we're already too close to an apocalypse.
I for one would love to make it to a century old in 2083 which is way more fake.
Yeah that’s not a real year
Made up
But I want to go to Salt Lake for the Olympics
No ❤️
Sam doesn’t believe Utah exists.
The only thing Utah has in common with bisexuals
Now that’s definitely fake

i was out of town the past couple of days so i’m watching the opening ceremonies now
we watched all the primetime stuff last night
and i’m watching that now and starting tomorrow i’ll be locked in
Another medal has fallen apart.
a boring ass super bowl cutting my primetime coverage to less than an hour and a half should be illegal
I am up and at ‘em to sit on my couch in front of the SAD lamp for an hour before I go off for the day
And I am dismayed to learn that goldzone doesn’t start until the exact time I have to get up and start getting ready to leave
I have to pick my own Olympic sports to watch like a pleb 😂
I wasn’t aware that “up and at ‘em” was an international phrase - this definitely had the accent of my Yorkshire grandfather in my head 😆
I’m trying to watch while at work but it keeps going choppy 😭
Oh that's fascinating, no, I would have said if anything it was local to me, as a colloquialism 😂
I have now finished my project due this morning except for final proofing, which means I am exactly on time to get off the couch, finish that, shower, and gather my things to go take someone to surgery
how in the world do i set up multiple streams on peacock
can you do it on the tv? or is it just in the mobile app
if not i’ll just put on the gold zone
I don't know if I love anything as much as the French women's Olympic hockey team loves giving their opponents power plays
Look they’re babies don’t be mean to them
