curling telecast showing the setup for norway's final shot of the 7th end... there are a whole bunch of stones in play with the americans sitting in scoring position. The commentator is drawing a crazy mess of lines showing several ricochets involving as many as 6 stones

the result of the shot... exactly as drawn up, all those stones ricocheted as planned, saving norway from disaster and scoring 2 for them

sometimes the crazy connections actually work out

Cheating is a bit of an exaggeration. Everyone has pretty much agreed it's inconsequential which makes it when dumber that they keep doing it

Canada and Sweden started yelling at each other over it.

Came up again in Canada/Swiss. Then the Canadian women got a rock burnt for it. They had to email all the teams a copy of the rules again

I love that it now has a heading on the Curling at the 2026 Olympics wiki page

I love that the Curling at the 2026 Olympics page now has a heading for the Canadian cheating

At 9:18, 3rd period of the Finland-Switzerland women's ice hockey QF game, the ice crew came to clean the ice during a pause

What follows is the funniest use of the slo-mo alternate angle tech I've seen them use during these Olympics of one of the crew members falling

Yup.

Franchises will have to up everything and actively recruit, just like college. Facilities, food, travel, family stuff...not just player development. Ultimately a win for labor IMO

I'm like the least complicated case. I have a passport and a Real ID. Never changed my name.

Everytime I move I would have to go to my county's voter services office to change registration. 45 min away, only open M-F, 9-4.

I've lived at 6 addresses in 11 years.

Finally reading into the SAVE Act stuff while I'm waiting for my oil change....oh wow this is some bullshit.

Can we please just have fucking healthcare?

Just don't put it too close to your LEGO bridge set

Everywhere I look reminds me of him #DOOP

nah, "Team Greased Pole Climbing for Cured Meats"

Spring would have things like the wife carry, cheese rolling for sure. I could also get down with a state fare element...bring your best produce and livestock to be judged.

Fall would definitely include every event from the Lumberjack Games

Why don't we have Spring and Fall Olympics on the the off years?

It feels like something broadcast partners would love? NBC make it happen

I feel like Newsome is a good candidate for someone who follows CNN on social media and is mildly versed on politics.

But for the over-informed or non-informed I don't think he plays as well as the other ones.

But also the photos look so much better than that photo

If you don't like it, just bully them and they'll change it in a few months.

SHES BEAUTIFUL

I NEED NASL STAT

Jamaica should just shut it down and make that yellow the forever primary kit. Unreal

This might be one of the top 5 World Cup jersey combos I've ever seen.

That yellow jersey is just perfection. Jamaica should never wear anything else again IMO

Agree with striker.

Idk if I agree with backline. Jury's out on that until we have some sample size. I will not sign off on anything there when we moved 2 best 11 defenders in the same off-season lol

Absolutely beautiful. I might buy one with Blake on it

That's still a step backwards though.

They did maybe 2/3 of a personnel reset this off-season.

I'm not saying the moves they made were wrong, but the roster is markedly worse in Feb 2026 than Oct 2025

I hear if you bully them enough, the club will change the the jersey.

Heads up NWSL fans, if you don't like these jerseys you can always bully them into redo-ing them in a few months
