He probably doesn’t want to hear it all the time too like yeah please stop bringing up the worst time of my life kthnx
Ed Sheeran feat. Andrea Bocelli is cursed
now Max has four years to accumulate new Max Facts for commentators to pull out in 2030 instead of Dead Parents
You say that but I’m enjoying it
the Bocelli part is nice. not an Ed fan to say the least
Probably because it is a legit song that was released that I’m enjoying it lol
go get some fun hobbies max
even if they need to talk about his parents they should talk about how he’s carried on running his parents figure skating school
nbc did a nice moment on the broadcast the other night about it
I’m trying to think what music I’d have playing during this
Fall out boy
Ooh that’s a good shout
« Hes like half the age of Scotty James » I’m sure Scotty loves hearing that 😂
I need lyrics not quite fully comprehensible as otherwise I’d be singing along
did we need to watch Scotty blow his nose on his hand there guys
US women's hockey semi game starting super soon!!
obviously
sorry Italy idc you're the host country and Lou will probably root for you, it's going to be a massacre
cmon scotty
NO
awww no scotty
He won’t be back
God I feel so bad for Scotty this is all he needed
He was so close too
It’s crazy I think the Olympics are just a mind block for so many athletes that they just can’t do as much
It’s very interesting, it’s why I like watching
The pressure does strange things to people
The Russian is going annoyingly well
Im really glad daniel barefoot isn’t barefoot on the ice
I’m trying to decide if I’d prefer to do luge or skeleton
I mean obviously neither
I feel like skeleton is slightly less bad
if you could wave a magic wand and guarantee I won't crash I'll do either
which I guess you could apply to many speed-based things
there we go!!!! 1-0 USA
I don’t know much about hockey but that did look nice!
Incredible from Sato
Dear god im sick of bolero
OH MY GOD GOLD
GOLD FOR GB
WOOOOOOOOO
FUCK YEAH
Setting a track record on your final run and winning gold is badass
aw he's sobbing
Oh he can’t believe it
❤️
We've already blasted up to 4-0 in the 2nd. The massacre part of this game is underway.
Incredible for Shylarov
lol when I heard there was a program ending with the guy becoming the pope I was going to JOKE that the music would be from the Conclave score
Okay period outfit reveal
ope the hockey got a bit spicy there
No fighting allowed i am sure they’re sick over it
I think Shylarov is going to medal
I wonder what the American coach was yelling about. He was shouting something happened FOUR TIMES! FOUR TIMES! What was it? lol
I'm so nervous
Shaidorov is like wtf is happening
He has a silver medal at least
Well he’ll get a silver unless malinin just doesn’t skate lol
I have perfect timing.
The eternal question
SINGLE AXEL
DOUBLE LOOP
wtf is happening
Is there bribery involved again
I want to know who the voice is in his music because it’s unsettling
Is it his
it's his own voice
Full offense
I mean, he may be the quad god but this is his first Olympics and it shouldn't be too shocking to see nerves taking a toll
Yeah
I didn’t expect him to fall twice
Shaidorov gold would be a WILD result
Poor kid, you could tell the nerves really got to him
I don’t think so
It’s like the kind of cringe poetry you think is super profound when you’re a teenager 💀
I don’t see how he can fall so many times and downgrade so much
oh god he's devastated
His TikTok reposts have been concerning people
He’s a child so I’ll let it go for now
Im shaking
I think this will be the first Kazakh skater to medal at the Olympics
Oh no they’ve had a bronze before
social media is going to be a shitshow with the Ilia haters going off
I mean I guess it would have anyway
They were already doing it
Oh Ilia giving him a massive hug
Mikhail looks in complete shock
Oh and Sato is sobbing again
And Yuma is like woooooo Sato
AND THAT’S WHY SPORT IS THE BEST TV
This is mind blowing
You NEVER know what’s gonna happen
I’m on an adrenaline rush never mind the skaters
holy shit
Meanwhile Yuma is like the most chilled person
Do you think they had a Kazakh flag ready for the ceremony or is someone sprinting to a supermarket
Theres still 18 min left in the period for the hockey game.
Shin Sato rushing to put his boots on I’m dying
Honestly it’s probably not the worst thing that he lost, he’s young, he’ll bounce back. And it gives him something still to chase.
Amber we need you
i wouldn’t be shocked if the way people talked about him got to him
people have been nasty all week online
I'm so looking forward to Amber's individual
It did per his TikTok reposts
Checking in on hockey twitter.
but yeah what an event I'm so happy for the Kazakh skater!!!
Why is he on TikTok?? Someone confiscate his phone!
I think only Alyssa Liu should keep her phone this week.
lol we were just commenting on this at probably the same time this was posted
I dunno who that is but I trust your judgement 😂
I feel like potentially both ways could have got to him, obviously the hate but the people bigging him up as the quad god and putting all that pressure on him
Oh it’s just sunk in for mikhail
Just goes to show that you can only do your best and you never know what might happen
His hair is so dumb tho just to take him down a notch
In another bladder update I need to pee before medals
Im getting old
Oh they’re re showing Ilia for us that’s cruel
Sometimes they don’t deserve it
Oooo interview with Malinin
Pressure is such a strange thing. He’s young, he’ll be back. I feel for him tonight though.
He’s speechless and in shock
Yet he’s saying a lot of words
He’s saying it’s out of his control and he’s going to look towards the future
Wooof this poor Italian women’s hockey team
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the Kazakh national anthem
Getting absolutely walloped by the USA
At least not deliberately
Yuma looks sick of being second lol
i would be
Especially as Ilia fell he should’ve won but also fell
girls please don’t let me down
Uhhhhhmmmm how did I not know how hot the USA women’s teams coach is
Oh my god he’s so cute!
Mikhail I mean not the coach
Im not watching the hockey
He’s so tall compared to the Japanese
Awwwwww Shun Sato is an emotional boy isn’t he
Shin
God my spelling is off tonight
Also did you guys hear they changed the medals to stop them falling off
I couldn’t even jump up onto the podium in ice skates without falling on my face
I couldn’t do it in normal shoes
Oh I love a surprising result. Something very special about that at the Olympics
There’s so many Kazakh flags in the crowd
Awww Yuma has his plush tucked into his medal
I was wondering if there was anyone else from Kazakhstan in the area but clearly yes
Yeah the commentators were implying there was 0 but considering I can hear them singing along to the anthem they’re definitely there
It’s a long anthem
He looked confused by the anthem for a second and I wondered if they’d got it right 😆
Honestly everyone’s should be the length of the uk’s
I think he’s confused by the situation overall lol
Probably thinks he’s dreaming
Oh gotta take the Samsung selfie but Sato doesn’t know how
I bet he’s going to have a long sleep tonight
The tiptoeing across the carpet amused me
My god the shot differential, 43-5 is absolutely insane
Italy can't even catch a break at all, whatsoever
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a stat line like that in the entire time I’ve followed hockey
US is absolutely suffocating them
hope they get the ice sorted
very strange all the big names who notably do not fall all had issues in similar areas of the ice
I don’t think I’ve even seen them leave italys zone since I turned the game on lol
US vs Sweden is going to be 🔥 I can't wait
Cannot wait
Give her a PHWL contract.
honestly maybe we need to just not include figure skating in the next olympics until we figure out what the fucks going on
never in its entire history
Final shot count 51-6. Wooooow.
Absolutely insane!
And still this showing for Italy is major for women’s hockey overall
meanwhile uh they're going to stretcher a Swiss men's player off the ice, I didn't see what happened
oh no
oof his leg got twisted and fallen on with the full weight of the Canadian player's body going down
They tried to call him Russian but he’s kissing the Kazakh flag
Not good
Gotta love that Russian chauvinist pan-Slavic ethnonationalism. 🤢
Did he bring the panda outfit for the gala
the absolute rollercoaster i endured from coming out of the cinema after watching wuthering heights to see team gb won their first gold to then sitting in my car and watching the last 3 figure skaters - devastated for ilia
and thats all my sympathy for america used up so lets go team canadaaaaa
awaiting the letterboxd review
That feels fair
Just learning about curling drama because it’s all in Swedish.
This appears to show the Canadian possibly touching the stone as it's touching the hog line, but it's impossible to be 100% sure if there's physical contact since it's so fuzzy.
Damn finally caught the end of the men’s half pipe, Scotty was so close to that gold!!!
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTh9Tt4fF/ they kick them out in 48 hours and they have to pay to get all those bags home

A three day weekend
I’m not going to be able to watch very much if any Olympics tomorrow and I’m devastated.
Not all Olympic pins are created equal.
This one? Traded to me by Flavor Flav himself.
#OlympicPins #PinTrading #MilanoCortina #FlavaFlav #Olympics

Canada curses Swedish player, and lies in front of the whole world.
Clip clearly shows them cheating in the Olympics by touching the stone with the finger. #Sweden #Canada #Curling
Dual moguls when they crash 😬
But they got up it’s ok
And they both crashed
The one that fell ass over tea kettle stayed in bounds and goes to the final. Just don’t go out of the gates.
I think Australia got another gold. Someone check on Canada.
Liz and Jaelin need to go to the hospital now lol
huge Aussie contingent there lol
Their crashes hurt me
Cross country skiing looks like torture
It's a pain sport, like marathons.
The best have that ability to somehow will their body to keep going when it's screaming to quit. It's fun more casually but competitive I could never.
The commentator called it a stamina sport, but pain sport is definitely more accurate.
the uphill sprints are the bit that really gets me
for what reason are you doing this to yourself
go home take a nap
Me to every single winter Olympian 😂
Unsurprisingly the top three are Norway, Finland and Sweden. Scandinavian’s are crazy.
they're like oh this? that's just how I get to school in the winter
My girlfriend was just saying this yesterday 😂
I saw a comedian joking that biathlon is the Scandinavians training for if the Russians invade, but they’ll be more than happy to turn it on the Americans 💀
yes but literally, not like @wary shell's jokes 😂
Brazil winning their first ever Winter Olympics medal and it's gold!

Brazil ahead of Canada and Finland on the medal tally then
YES Kirkeeide pulling it out for Norway in the biathlon sprint over the French!
Was just watching that and it brought up repressed memories of my parents who forced my sister and I as a kids into cross country skiing and now I’m triggered 😂😭
It doesn’t look fast when you see them all together cause they’re all incredible athletes but then I see them collapse onto the floor across the line and I know it’s fast
Like those ladies were GASSED after that. no wonder I hate exercise. I was forced to basically run a half marathon on skis against my will for years from like 7-12 years old
I don’t know who’s giving out roses but I love it
I embraced the torture, not only cross-country skiing as a good young Norwegian-American but also doing cross-country running in the summers
I would never push myself that hard at it again though, because why do that to myself 😂
But I want to ski again, needless to say there's great cross-country trails around here.
I do kinda want to learn to ski but I’m not sure starting in your 30s is a good idea
As someone who did alpine skiing as a kid, we always made fun of the concept of cross country skiing
Downhill means the gravity is doing it for you, why are you not using gravity to go somewhere on skis 😂
I’m watching the speed skating team pursuit qualifying and man, Canada is good
They were 7th (…maybe 6th) after the first lap, then ended up with the fastest qualifying time because they finished so strong
yeah that was wild
I am learning—well, I’m not learning things about myself, but I am articulating things about myself that I hadn’t before in this Olympics
I sure do like timed sports better than artistic merit sports, and the faster they’re going the more I care 😂😂😂
This is what I’ve also realised about myself. Give me a speed sport in any form.
Moguls does both
My interest:
- individual sports judged on speed
- team sports
- sports judged on artistry
With exceptions that I don’t care that much about luge/bobsled/skeleton, and aerials is my single favorite winter sport because vault is my single favorite summer sport 😂
I’ve long held a disdain for judged sports
they just make up a greater proportion of winter
at least with smth like moguls the judging is only a portion
Aerials and vault are like the potato chips of sports watching, it’s so quick and one-and-one that you can just keep eating watching another one and another one and another one 😂
If it’s going to be judged, make it last 4.3 total seconds and be spectacular 😂
I enjoy watching them bc like wow talented but then the judging pisses me off too much
Many Winter Olympics speed sports do generally slightly suffer from the lack of parallelness for me.
Like with motorsport, I prefer races than rally style stages.
I do like the peril of someone stood waiting to see if they will beat their time though
snowboard/ski cross are fun for that
I still think there should be one where they dump the entire field on the top of a mountain, designate an end point and tell them to have at it
“Just Get Down This Mountain”
there’s no course, just vibes
I need like a sport picker where it asks me these kinda questions and gives me some obscure sport I’ve never heard of to watch
And not like “cycling”
I want the niche cycling discipline
Enjoying the curling commentary “He’s a full time curler.. for now, anyway” is rather backhanded 😆
US team has a dentist and a lawyer. They almost got the full set.
Apparently this guy used to be a banker
shocking you like structured clean cut rules nothing subjective
Or fast
The ADHD balances out the autism 😂
(Fast meaning vault and aerials, I mean. If it’s going to be scored, score it fast while I’m still paying attention 😂)
I am really bad at counting how many time someone spun. They say it’s a triple or a 1080 and I cannot see it.
I have thought about this and it’s gotta just be practice
Like you see it enough times you know how long it takes, what it looks like if they’re doing two vs three vs four rotations
can we get all the men's speed skaters to start stripping at the line
“For now he’s the daddy” okay commentator
that Canadian is CAKED too
I was thinking his thighs are huge and then he turned around
I couldn’t do speed skating cause there’s no way I could keep still at the start
I would also fall.
There’s a skeleton athlete her first name is Mystique. I love it.
This is just ice Sting Ray Robb
Nah, cause Jordan Stolz is good 🫢🫢🫢
!!!!
Have we put SRR on ice yet?
That was fast.
The Dutchman was on the ice sitting thinking.
He was so distraught he fell
They’ve done dancing with the stars. Why not On Ice. Put the Chicken Farmer out there.
One more pair to go.
Standing really still on knives.
He has to buy jeans where hockey players and baseball catchers do, doesn’t he.
Delaware with an Olympian. Seems fake.
Commentator: OH NO
Me: I don’t know what you saw
Finland 11-0 against Italy in men's hockey. 62 shots on goal to 15. Brutal
The most well-known and successful team which ought to be able to get by great on having the most experience winning and the most resources to their program, but choosing to allegedly cheat anyway?
It's giving Penske.
There was lots of emails from World Curling about it.
They were more upset about the word fuck.
if you're not doing the act they can't catch you in it now can they
Ski jumper has pink skis
pink with the red highlights. kirby skis
Classic behaviour from a sporting governing body.
I need a britta meme for this
new image released of what caused ilia to fall
The first time someone spins out in an F1 race this year we're getting this meme aren't we
it's so versatile
My mum, who never watches a second of sport in her life if she has the choice, called me to ask about the “curling drama” today. It’s escaped containment.
It’s just such a funny form of cheating, like a little finger push
Come on Flock I believe in you
Someone has to beat the Germans
Speed up girl
Her sectors went green per Leigh
A wipe out in short track.
Video review to see who goes to jail.
The UK has this!
Yes! Dancing on Ice!
Someone is going to make spinning on your butt across the ice a sport.
there’s something seriously wrong with this ice they better get it sorted before my girls are doing their short program
The ice is not meant to be shared.
lmao they’re getting Steven Bradbury to commentate the speed skating
“what could go wrong”
Raise your hand if you’re under video review for short track.
I hope he knows his 2002 is a core memory of mine. I watched it live (on tv - my parents couldn’t get to Utah lol)
It’s a core memory for all Australians
I think 2002 was my first winter games I followed religiously.
Helped being one time zone over.
We are getting a replay of the reviews.
To “pull a Bradbury” is a core Australian concept now
This curl could have been an email

Checking in on Lindsey's situation. Complex fracture of the tibia, multiple surgeries so far with more to come and this scary looking external stabilizing contraption as of a few days ago. Horrifying but she's such a strong spirit toughing it out and expressing no regrets.
That’s one of those temporary things they put on to hold the leg together until they operate.
When you need that amount of external scaffolding to hold your parts together
Not a great sign
Her dad: I hope she’s finally done
They have to find something to post when the Italians are sleeping.
I’m getting snow ballet videos now, its time to go to bed.
lmfao me too
They got rid of it before I gained consciousness smh
I cannot forget them
nor the uni hockey team that came into the campus sports bar and demanded they be shown
(I was studying in Ottawa at the time)
I still think about this daily
I’m watching the slopestyle this morning
Canada finally get their first gold
“She broke her foot ten days ago, had surgery and is now back pushing in the monobob” oh these athletes are unreal
US commentators for the Olympics are making F1 references now
We had “it’s like being on pole position at an f1 race and you wheel spin and everyone goes past you” to describe a monobob start before
I would have described that as unrealistic in modern f1 until I saw the practice start the other day
NBC has repeatedly explained that the wax crew is just as much a part of success for ski sports as the athlete themselves by analogy to F1 teams
US audiences are now expected to hear something like that and be like yeah that tracks
The bobsleigh isn’t on my multiviewer wtf
I believe it's ended
Women's giant slalom, 🇳🇴 & 🇸🇪 tie for #1 atm!
Oh apparently that’s common because there’s 3 with the same time from the first heat
for ties they must have spares of all the medals on hand, I wonder what they do with them at the end
I love how they’re sat side by side cuddling haha
maybe they have a replacement program if you break or lose yours until they run out
I guess they also have spares in case one is damaged at some point before they give it out
I want to know what they did to fix the issue they had with them breaking earlier
Cause apparently they fixed it
I want this tie for gold
yes a cute tie please
Oh my god
Okay fine we can have the tied pair finish second for someone winning at home
Ohhhh that’s adorable
aw the bow
Them bowing down to her
the support and respect is beautiful
I’ve seen so much of it in these games
I do think sport is changing on that one tbh
Idk if it’s me but I feel like it’s more prevalent in the winter sports than summer sports
It feels like that to me too
I do wonder if it’s cause they see each other week in week out often
Which is true for some summer sports too I guess but not all
And also in this sport they seem to have injuries often so they know what it’s like to come back
Yeah I mean like skeleton in the UK there’s one place to train and it’s the university of bath, so they spend pre season in Latvia with their team
I don't understand why the gates in SBX open at different times. seems unfair
It’s because it’s a relay
So they open at the gaps that the first people finished at
ah ty
The multiviewer has switched to biathlon instead of the medal ceremony boo
The Swiss and Czech hockey jerseys are too similar
I do like that the men race first in the snowboard cross and then the women because I don’t think people would expect that
Save the best for last 😉
From the surnames on the ones hugging I assume the Swiss won
I found out that they’re not allowed to sell the German hockey Germany because the eagle is like an officials symbol of Germany and they had to get permission from the government to even have it on the jersey
Interesting. they’re careful with who can use symbols when and where here because of the obvious historical misuse (though the eagle itself is like Holy Roman Empire old) but I didn’t actually know that
I mean I found out on TikTok so maybe don’t trust it
lol I love the Norwegian Viking squad in the biathlon stands with the stupid horned helmets 😂
I get a little annoyed sometimes because it's historically inaccurate but here I'll allow it.
Oh it completely sounds accurate tbh
Yeah if it's not true it's at least believable.
I'm rooting for you guys to beat the French here in SBX.
Ooh controversy
Did we gold????
Yesss
Wooooo
you did, in amazing fashion with a late pass
From Bankes? She’s a badass
And I think also pissed because she didn’t get an individual medal so she’s like I WILL WIN
Yep
Yeah that’s what they said basically
She was behind quite a bit at the start, nearly in 3rd and then was like “no this is absolutely not happening”
I didn’t realise she’d also competed for France in the past too
lol thé biathlon commentators are comparing the targets to the size of a toilet roll on her side
The women have outclassed the men in the shooting 💁🏻♀️
In what? I’m not watching yet but need to know 😂
Mia noooo
I expect this from the sliding center because Leigh Diffey who else did it
It's happened in women's giant slalom and cross-country skiing
I don't remember the commentator's name
There was definitely an F1 reference in snowboard halfpipe in the last 24 hours cause I was like only half listening and I was like wait did they just say…?
"we" here is the Norwegians in women's biathlon 10km pursuit
Oh ah ha, I don’t care about Norwegians, that’s fine 😂
I have never been on skies or snowboard due to my moms concern for knee injuries and I’ve been on ice skated like 1 or 2 times. Don’t put me out there.
You have to admit that being beaten by an Italian at their home game isn’t the worst
I don't have to admit anything 😂
theres absolutely nothing better than being in person at one sporting event, whilst watching another sporting event on your phone and winning both 🥰 will forever feel sorry for people who dont get sports
I’ve done this.
I’ve watched a baseball game while at a baseball game when someone hit a milestone.
Im nosey what are you at
i was at a manchester united women’s home game, had my whole stand cheering for charlotte and huw 😂
that was team GB’s first ever gold on the snow, which feels crazy but tracks
Canada finally got a gold this Morning I thought there would be an investigation.
One of the slope style athletes was born in December 2009.
Theres a possibility that the US athletes in the finals of slopestyle is a high schooler. This team is so young this year. They’re preparing them for Salt Lake.
This may be controversial but I think you should be an adult to compete at the Olympics
Don’t look at skateboarding.
We have the youth Olympics for a reason
I do wonder if they do anything to shield the children from the debauchery of the Village.
I think their parents are housed with them.
That's good.
Alyssa Liu had her pseudo parents (Madison and Evan) for Beijing because obviously her dad couldn’t go there after his involvement in 1989. Might a problem.
I mean they’re all like 15+ right?
I don’t think the debauchery is the issue I just worry about them mentally
Well I mean.
The IOC has no rules it’s based on the individual sport federation.
I would not put it past 20s-30s men to try and be criminally inappropriate with teenagers.
Curling drama
Oui also hadn’t considered the coaches
So we're applying the rules to GB but not Canada. Got it.
Canadá women got it applied I think
Did you guys see the Russian got invited to the FS gala
I think she should get 100 points for the belly slide
My broadcast is on speed skating team pursuit and they love to go OH NO over bobbles.
Oh I love the team pursuit
I’ve put on to multi view
I just had this on. It’s too early to decide.
I have curling multi-view next to Rally Sweden.
🇯🇵 vs 🇰🇷 is the best game going, tied 3-3 in the 8th.
I feel horrible but on the the danish curlers looks like Gollum when she smiles
Remember the Canada soccer drones?
!!!!
Incredible from the swedes
I love this drama so much
Sweden is trying to help the sport ok
I feel like it’s different to drone spies because they’re trying to catch something wrong not cheat
They somehow lost to the US men’s team
I really wish I could pick the sports I had on multi view
They have the technology! Baseball multiviewer has had it over a decade.
Especially because I’ll have to turn it off later when they’re doing the big ski jumps because it makes me nauseous
False start!!
lol the commentator said it was the French and the ref gave to Netherlands
team pursuit has to be one of the most elaborate rituals for men to touch each others' butts
Idk rugby is pretty close
Baseball doesn’t need it and they keep doing it.
Gollum beat Italy in the curling
Omg the Netherlands might not get through
Oh they did but France didn’t
This curling match down to the final stone.
Korey Dropkin is the leader of the fan contingent since he’s not on the mens team.
I can’t. There’s down time in events and now I’m reading these.
So they're still going with "it's illegal to catch us cheating, you're not supposed to look"
k
Why does the commentator keep mentioning Jake Paul fuck off
It's like if Penske described accurate technical scrutineering as "a premeditated plan to catch us in the act of illegally modifying our cars"
like yeah dude
it is
The poor commentator for the speed skating is on his own and he is yapping for England
Cause a woman can only be known by her boyfriend
The ice being repaired by metal hand tools it’s fine.
Snoop came in after Ellia had raced I’m sorry but if you’re gonna go to something like this get there on time
“I’m not going to sit here and adamantly deny that I haven’t done it,” he said of grazing the granite. “I can just adamantly deny that it was never done on purpose.”
Oh so we've also gone from "I didn't do it" to "if I did do it it didn't matter"
All publicity is good publicity
I mean it’s worked
If they’d just admitted to it, it would all have been fine. But sounds like they’ve been doing it for ages
And this defence is just making them look worse
Theyre listing the surgeries the American skater had had between skating and soccer. Girl, how are you standing.
They are still going at it. Giant gash.
It’s fixed for me they’re racing again
Im always behind
Not watching on a tv is why
A masters in biomedical engineering from John Hopkins and applying to medical school after her Olympics lol
Casual.
Putting Olympic team on the CV actually will help that application because they want a variety of backgrounds and someone who has gone outside.
Don’t need another tall Whittaker.
Yes
Wow!!!!
they can’t ever leave some of it for the rest of us
it’s like nathan chen going to yale and then med school
like ok whatever man sure
He’s doing a post bachelors program to get in, his sciences must have been too low.
eeeeeeevil
is he i haven’t caught up
i just knew it was happening
Biathlon replay now and the crowd cheering after the shots how do they see such things
Men will do anything but going to therapy.
She’s named after cheese

The whimsy is undercut somewhat by her being the fiancee of Jake goddamn Paul.
I mean, people mention him before his GOD DAMN AWARD WINNING WOMEN
They keep focusing on him and it needs to stop.
the Dutch are too fast
Im now watching the ski jumping and its not making me as anxious today
lol never mind they just did a shot down the hill
We are watching Canada France hockey.
Every time they show Macklin: 
Sidney Crosby: as I suspected
I never think it’s too bad until they actually show how high the top is
/how steep it is
Clearly French hockey needs to get gayer.
I feel like all sports need to be gayer
Matt Weston talking about his sports psychologist yaaaas 
Women’s mono bob and they’re talking taking her son around the world
Mono bob is so weird
They aren’t saying wow she’s 40 thankfully
are they showing you a replay? I don't see monobob listed live
I'll have to catch up on that later
Mixed team skeleton should start now.
I like the luge one better where they can sit up and smash the button that starts the next person
but can't really do that on skeleton
Not easily
Headbutt
Leigh. You know drag races don't have turns.
He’s starting a new sport ditching NHRA
I saw the skeleton track at the university of bath. It’s cement with tracks.
Yup
British Cool Runnings.
This is it
We shouldn’t be as good as we are considering (but I guess in reality they train a lot elsewhere)
Latvia for pre season
I looked at the sliding center Wikipedia. There’s only 17 in the world.
Also when I read about how they got into skeleton it seems UK sport have days where I guess they invite people who are good at other sports for an assessment day or something and suggest what they might like to try
Which makes sense
But if I did that and they said to me “why don’t you try going head first on a tea tray down a hill?” 😆
I think most countries do that, I know one for handball just happened in the US coz a travel influencer got through the first round
Four in Germany is the least surprising.
Our handball team is not good. Neither is race walking.
Of course Germany has 4
Switzerland’s is carved out of the snow every year. The rest are concrete.
I like these lights to start
It's familiar.
Born in 2006
To be fair at least one seems to have been constructed because the East Germans needed one
(Also love how they didn’t get the calculations right, zero surprised after living in various GDR-era apartments over the years 😆)
They over engineered something? Cant believe it.
They mention her active duty status like Max’s parents.
I guess she’s in the Air Force.
What's happening with the women's normal hill, the Peacock stream has been going for an hour and it doesn't look like they've shown anyone jump yet
large hill, sorry
They just finished trials and the first round starts at :45
Excellent from China considering that’s the first time she’s ever done that kind of start
blatant false start there
She knew she’d done it bless her
I do like the one run and done of this though
Hockey is getting worse.
all of them behaving badly
The skeleton team thing is funny because everyone is just setting track records
What did the French expect here
They have one NHL player this is what the expected
Why are there 4 men in the curling but there were only 2 in the mixed
That doesn’t seem fair
Doubles vs a full team.
The women are 4 as well.
Swedish mixed double teams is not on their national team but the Cory is on both.
Weird
Korey in the stands causing a scene though.
It's a brother-sister activity for those Swedes not something they do with random people I guess.
I am assuming the C on the jersey in the jockey is for captain
Yes
Then what does A mean
I would’ve put them as A B C in order
Has anyone seen Oldenburg of curling and Stephen of Pommel Horse in the same place?
The stewards is going to hear about this.
The French brought French horns but not French horns.
Are we sure it’s the French because that could be about 8 different flags
They were blowing for the French jumper
That makes sense
The curler is an environmental scientist with a degree in ecology.
From Minnesota!
Doncha know
Likely place.
Aww she’s so happy I love it
They’re all having so much fun
The Germans are very excitable how ungerman
Lmao she ended up with the mattress on her head
Suzie you’re putting your hoodie on backwards darling
COME ON
Oh no
omg
this is so exciting
Weston could do it but it's a lot
I'm sorry but I'm Team D in this scenario though
« A decent reaction from Matt » it’s the fastest legal reaction of the night
repeatedly risking the guillotine today aren't I
YES YES YES
Oh wow
No it’s fine
I’m so happy for Tabs and Matt
Me too
stunning
It’s a German British sandwich
Ngl this event was a bit of a win win for me but I’m still pleased the Brits won over the Germans 😆
Matt is just unbelievable
Hé really is
imagine not liking sport 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
After losing to France today I needed this
‼️
Britain refusing to win any medal unless it’s gold I see
the women's large hill 1st round is 1. 🇳🇴 2. 🇳🇴 3. 🇳🇴 4. 🇳🇴
Awww they’re talking about how parents are the biggest supporters 🥹
The German team kit is great though
Ok when does the figure skating start
making up for the men's ski jumpers not delivering
Ugh someone pissed me off yesterday saying that because Misha Shaidorov spoke Russian he must be Russian like comrade let me introduce you to the Soviet Union
Hes bilingual they’re going to start crying
I really like this music
off to an impressive start
I don’t see the point in cutting only three pairs for the free
It’s not adding dramatically more time
Carmen is so overdone but I’m enjoying this guitar version lol
The skeleton podium had their medals presented by Prince Albert of Monaco
More F1 cross overs
Someone crashed at men’s big air 😭
Ilia is there with Mikhail
« Americans already making a really big atmosphere » aka Americans you’re fucking LOUD
I think they’re playing bad bunny in the arena
I know he left the village, but I guess he didn’t go home home.
He’s skating at the gala isn’t he
I assume so, but it’s reported he’s moved out of the village.
Maybe Ilia is hiding from people.
You have to 72 hours after you finish competing so he’s just done it a bit quicker lol
Big get out of my house vibes
But I imagine he wants to prove himself at the gala so probably wants somewhere more chill to recover and avoid other humans
I imagine the kind of hotel he can afford is nicer than the village too
Isn’t he doing some press conference too
incredible jump from Anna Strøm for the first women's large hill gold at the Olympics
So he is I guess it was up for debate
Coz he didn’t medal he had to be invited
Yeah also the world championships part was phrased weird
There was a lot of speculation he’d pull out
Those spins were horribly out of sync
The pairs are the only figure skaters who don’t get a day off between short and free
This music is horrific
This is somehow surprising to me
Like I thought there would be more, there’s niche and then there’s niche
I guess the cost is quite astronomical
And unlike say ice rinks, they can’t be used by the average person
I didn’t know the name but this made me go dig up this post cause I knew it had to be the same person 😂 https://bsky.app/profile/thispersonstinks.bsky.social/post/3mem35ttb622x
Pommel Horse guy is doing curling?
-# Rodger Sherman (@rodger.bsky.social)
USA men's curling is underway less than 24 hours after the mixed doubles gold medal match and I AM READY TO BE HURT AGAIN
136
Oh there’s a photo in the post being quote tweeted WHATEVER
I mean sure, I just assumed there’d be more anyway
Rich people with too much money is nothing new 😂
Never loved a piece of background biography info more
Well done Canada
Adorable
WOW
that was so cool
wow 106 years since a British pair have podiumed in this event
according to Johnny
who then said and yeah these two aren't in contention to change that this time
Meanwhile the British comms are calling it magnificent
Johnny and Tara are praising it a lot, they just don't expect it will challenge the favorites I guess
He had a major wrist injury and they couldn’t practice for the 10 days before the event
Woooooo they qualified!!!
This is where I like sport cause everyone has their own aims
Like not everyone is realistically thinking they’re gonna win or be on the podium
But it can still be one of the most amazing days just to qualify
I think I’m going to go to bed
Less than five seconds was left for Norway in curling very dramatic
It was not looking good most of the game but they've made it exciting
Whoever wins this one I still win of course
Men and women both win on the final stone today.
I think the US just won it but they didn't show a score before going to the Project Hail Mary ad which I've seen 500,000 times in the last few days, thanks NBC.
I've had three separate windows of Peacock streams with it playing on all 3 simultaneously. I'm losing my mind over here.
If you skate to MJ I expect a moonwalk
Good job picking an MJ song that's not one of the 3 or 4 everyone would think of
The US women’s curling team also has a pharmacist, I was forgetting someone. I got the dentist, and lawyer.
That’s the only good part about gold zone, just one of those damn ads.
I'm greedy with wanting the video larger side-by-side.
shame about the errors because that was beautiful
the US commentators other than Johnny kept talking like it was absolutely perfect and peak but like... yeah
oof
I gasped
I can't believe she's 42
Aw man I feel for them
She came back at 40 after 16 years out and won the world title?! Wow

“so tell me again, exactly what were you doing when your phone broke?”
Oh right Bolero.
I am only half watching, maybe a quarter watching, but I heard them skating to O Fortuna
bolero again
So I need everyone to enjoy Gopher Tuna because I have watched this video so many times I just learned I can sing the fake lyrics along to the real song 💀😂
I asked the kids at my rink today if they were excited for the pairs short and one of the little girls went “yeah! I really want Mr. Clean to win!”
He’s so devastated bless him
Only half the US men's hockey team has bothered turning up to a US women's game to support them? Ok. 
That’s more than I expected
Speed skating takes place in Milwaukee.
They’re ready for the Milwaukee mile.
Put them on inlines, the oval is not banked.
Asking the important questions tbh
So about France Hockey, they got their qualification spot because Russia was banned, they were last for both men and women’s tournaments. So they’re just here for a good time.
Here for a good time, not a long time finger guns
Next time they’ll have host privileges.
https://youtu.be/IvXuaLKsVw0 YouTube has what we want
Following a double-touching controversy in the Canada-Sweden men's match, Canadian curler Rachel Homan was called for a violation vs. Switzerland. The team denied the "granite touch" call, but the stone was removed. #NBCSports #WinterOlympics #Curling #Canada

Aw I missed a fight
The snow in the slalom is a lot
https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGdueS3mq/
adorable. somehow it’s always the parents’ reaction which gets to me
I had my alarms set starting at 5am this morning (29 minutes ago) but then I woke up needing to pee at 4:15am and that’s incredibly the wrong amount of time to go back to sleep and I was just Awake so I guess my day started at 4:15
Which is to say I’m about to start watching the Olympics again 😂
aw the Norwegian failing the slalom and just hopping the fence and going for a sad walk
Apparently his grandfather died during the opening ceremony and he wanted to win a medal for him 😭
IOC is so strict they’re copyright striking peoples own videos in the venues.
NHL was using pictures and stick figures. They couldn’t get licensing I guess.
"Stop trying to make our sport hotter on social media!" is beyond bonkers in 2026
Usa (USA) is so nice this time of year.
it’s soooo dumb
Yeah I was wondering with the name. His mom is a Norwegian cross-country skiier who was at the University of Vermont to do NCAA skiing.
I guess the IOC didn't get the memo about Burlington and someone was like whatever, "Usa"
They don’t have a McDonald’s, that’s all I know about them.
oh I'm watching the womens' monobob replay and here's Simona de Silvestro
He missed the gate, threw his pole, and laid down. Half the field DNF or was DNF by the weather.
I honestly don't recall seeing this level of falls and DNFs across sports at previous Olympics. The Italian snow and ice has it out for everyone.
Except the Italians, who surpassed their previous medal count at any Winter Olympics with half the Olympics to go
GB have done pretty damn good too
Welll maybe not good but less utter domination by the us women lol
Also I found out that there were wives competing in the skeleton the other day. they have a shared half Belgium/half Brazil room in the village and they share some trainers and physios etc.
Italy 2nd in the medal table is stunning. US climbing up there to 3rd.
I have a maybe dumb question, but why isn’t China a thing at the Winter Olympics?
Like they’re our major powerhouse competition overall medal count in the summer Olympics but they’re just nowhere here
Maybe they hate winter 🤷🏻♀️
They're still ramping up a lot of their winter sports programs is my understanding.
That would make sense
They put in loads of investment for Beijing and then basically stopped
Yeah I heard they pushed to Beijing and then just let off the gas
They’re beating her up now.
Big close up on Laila.
Once again our US women's team has gone easy on the opponent in the 1st with just the one lil goal and then turned on domination mode in the 2nd
We're going to have to wait for Canada to get a real challenge probably
well we already ran all over canada once
true
that was shocking even though they were missing their captain
I'm manifesting a close and entertaining gold medal game
I appreciate it wouldn’t be safe but I think team ski jumping should mean they jump at the same time, bonus points for holding hands
Lol good hit on Curl
They want to fight so badly.
You know how hard it is for North American rules players to not fight.
People online are handling it well.
Another shutout.
they’re in the same room….i didn’t know they knew how to do that
I hope Aerin gets the best Caesar salad after the games.
If they do this again in the gold medal game... GOATs?
They’re going to say AI.
Couldn’t agree more
I am watching men’s ski jumping super team, a thing I just learned how it works 😂
Two people per team, they both jump once (round one), they go down to the top 12 teams to jump again (round two), then down to 8 for the final round, and the winner at the end is from the cumulative score of all six jumps
But I’m also annoyed there’s no women’s ski jump super team (I googled why and encountered a Reddit post that didn’t make me less mad because it was mainly men complaining about how there are too many female ski jumpers at the Olympics already)
They already don’t have Nordic combined and it’s a point of contention
So it’s F1 qualifying, lol, but the scores are cumulative
You know that’s actually an interesting concept for f1
Monobob is so dramatic, they have the camera following the leader.
They split screen during Humphries run to show some men’s event they got no shot in smh.
Oh wow delaying the big air final due to weather but it makes sense from the images
Anyway back to curling!
Oh I’m glad you gave this report, I will not bother switching then
They moved up slope style a day due to this storm
I mean it’s currently snowing horizontally as far as I can tell so I do wonder if they’ll get it going
Says decision soon though
It’s not supposed to go that direction
uhhhhhh
that's... not how that's supposed to work
The spectators are huddling for warmth but the Brits and the Swiss still have their flags up somehow which is entirely what I’d expect
That tracks.
The women’s big air is playing country roads
tried to ask my sister who has lived in china for 3 years now
I appreciate your effort and also lol
I love that we have global correspondents in this server lol
Aw Simona
She's always been a trooper finding any way to do what she wants to do and have fun even when the results don't come
And it's just fun she did the reverse Divina Galica. Not many people, let alone women, have made an Olympics/motorsport transition.
Yeah no she's competing in monobob for Italy (she has a family connection there)
Amazing!
I'm sure it was more realistic for her with lack of experience to make the Italian team versus Switzerland.
A third of the Swiss are Italian anyway
Somehow seeing the ice pairs practising their lifts off the ice and just in normal workout clothes makes them look more terrifying
*figure skating pairs (my brain couldn’t work out what it was in English for a min 😆)
my addition to ski jumping commentary is going wheeeeee everytime they jump
You would be the person on the sci-fi movie set saying "pew pew pew" out loud like Laura Dern.
Or making the lightsaber noises
Come on Anastasia and Luke!
They keep talking about how Deanna is old like leave her alone
ageist Deanna facts
She’s 42 not 402
Yes same exactly thank you 😂
This cover of Come Together is not annoying me the way the Eleanor Rigby one did... still not better than the original
