These Winter Olympics are so much fun.
Speed skating.
“Shall we speed up a bit and catch that fella a full half lap ahead of us?”
“Nah”
“He’s a long way in front you know?”
“Nah”
“So we’re just letting him win the Olympic Gold then?”
“We’re what?? Oh f***!”

I always thought 3rd place playoffs in football were mad, but B Finals at the Olympics??

Feels very “Al Capone” doesn’t it.
“If we can’t get him on the noncing, what about leaking confidential information?”

Turns out I bloody love the ice dancing.
The drama!
Go Japan 🙌 Team Endo for the win.

Very sorry to hear that. Best wishes. Loads of Reds on here now to chat nonsense with you again when you need it.

Been thinking about sport and how expensive / inaccessible it is to watch now.
We’ve watched loads of the Winter Olympics and it’s been awesome. That Ice Dancing final 👀
Should the BBC do more to promote all these random sports if they can’t show football/cricket/rugby anymore?

I can’t get my head around it.
A footballer does their ACL it’s “I’m off lads, see you in 12 months”.
With her it’s “ah well, who really needs a working ACL anyway? See you on the slopes next week yeah?”.
It’s just madness.

Are we sure Runcorn bridge is 30mph because I always have a queue of furious cars behind me when I’m crossing it.

Was hoping we found some wide men in the summer, both for the left and right.
It’s so thin, especially if Gakpo and Salah are both having a dip in form.

Indeed!
Interesting how Isak is going to fit back in. Not sure I’d want Ekitike going back out to left wing. Want him in the middle creating his chaos.

This Ekitike Wirtz partnership is going to be a lot of fun to watch.

The US President insisting on Greenland because Norway wouldn’t give him the Nobel Peace Prize is too much for me get my head around.
None of this is real is it. It can’t be. We’re in a simulation and Trump is the glitch in the Matrix. It’s the only explanation at this point.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen an NFL team lose a game after 15 seconds before.
Deary me.

Well if our fan base wasn’t divided on the manager before that game…
I think the bigger question is how the squad looks such a mess despite the money that’s been spent.

Amazes me that only Aguero and Haaland have scored more premier league goals than Sterling, yet I barely remember him playing for them.

The downside to watching back-to-back NFL games on Sky is the bombardment of advertisements.
I dunno whether to gamble the mortgage or run away with the army. Maybe both?

Thought Niners would lose this game because they couldn’t stop the run.
Instead it looks like they’re going to lose because of the offence.
Kittle is one injury too many.

Was worried after the first 15 but thought they were superb after that.
Just lacked a lad who can put the ball in the net.
Similarly, it’s amazing how blunt Arsenal are if you don’t give away free kicks or corners.
