Indeed.
Holland not looking bad either despite only being good at 1 sport
1 sport with "not countable" races.
Feels useless being good at Ice Hockey when counting medals

It's basically just athletics but on skates
What wonders me, is why the Dutch are bad at ice hockey. Figure this out:
-We are incredibly good at speed skating (probably best country overall)
-We are in the top 4 countries at field hockey, always been world class.
Combine the 2 and you should have a killer ice hockey team, yet no, the first good Dutch player has yet to be found I think

should have
but Combining the two isn't as easy as it sound, Hockey players prefer field hockey over Ice Hockey and ice skaters prefer speed skating and shorttrack. it's one of the two.

I've got high hopes for the 20k-biathlon after the womens 10k-failure earlier today.
Still, I think Fourcade might take it.

Dippo: Silver. Fourcade overtook him after the final shooting.
Luigi: This is a special event (or actually the oldest one). It's longer (20k) than the pursuit, so to not distort it too much towards strong skiers, there is a 1min penalty per missed shot. On the other hand, that slightly distorts it towards good shooters with more than the double penalty compared to other events (the lap is ~23 secs).

Oh, okay, because i tuned in to the livestream after reading here, and the time they were showing as guys crossed the line was Lessers time, so i thought he had actually won.

Awful day for GB. Lost a Silver in debatable circumstances and look a shadow of our former selves in Curling. Hope we can win women's skeleton Gold though.

By winning both games? I guess they weren't the cleanest of victories though.
Christie's silver being taken wasn't the right decision though I agree, and Woodsy was disappointing in his slopestyle final. We need another medal soon, and Arnold looks like she will get it tomorrow.

I think it was pretty clear that *finds result to look smart * Christie got a Penalty. she pretty much was responable for the Bradbury situation
