The run up to the #MilanCortina2026 Olympics is under way. Earlier today the Olympic Flame was lit in Olympia. The torch will tour Greece before the handover ceremony in Athens on December 4th.

Team USA dropped the sweaters players will wear in hockey for the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games. Immediate thought, these jerseys have a nice clean look and are great throwbacks. I like them.

The era of overly bland corporate rebrands for teams continues unabated. This looks like a soon to be introduced M&M. The Mercury players and fans deserve better.
NEWS: The Phoenix Mercury have announced a complete rebrand that includes an updated logo 👀

A new uniform is expected to be released on Tuesday.

Later this month the Olympic flame for Milan Cortina will be lit in Greece. The first Winter Olympics torch relay occurred prior to the 1952 Oslo Games. The flame was not lit in Greece and was thus symbolic rather than official.

A lot of emotion from Team Shuster. I feel bad they’re being put on the spot about their future immediately after seeing their Olympic dream fall. I can’t imagine giving as thoughtful, honest, magnanimous answer as they did in that situation. Love their support of Team Casper.

And that’s it! Team Casper knocks off Team Shuster in the US Olympic Curling Trials. They’ll travel to Canada in a few weeks to take part in the last chance qualifier with a chance to go to the Olympics on the line.

Over the years the Olympics have had some of the best sports posters I’ve seen. This one for the Milano cluster at the upcoming games featuring the Duomo di Milano is very nice.

Canada and Finland unveiled the jerseys NHL players like Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, and Mikko Rantanen will wear at next year’s Olympics. I really like the Finnish jerseys. Need more time to marinate on the Canadian ones.
