He definitely seems a crowd favorite and is so much fun to watch. Really excited to see what he can do at the Olympics. While it has still alluded him on the World Cup, his 2nd at the World Championships in the Sprint and Pursuit was 2nd to a man who is now retired, so... ;-)

Enjoying that IBU Datacenter has the isolated pursuit times, but figuring out the overall pink bib standings is a bit too much for me, any chance of getting an update on who has the pink bib?

Also was nice to see Chloe move up 9 spots. Wish she could have grabbed some WC points, but hopefully she can improve her shooting in Annecy so she does not start so far back.

And given the US Women were 19th last year in the NC, them currently being 17th and finishing 15th in the relay are huge steps towards getting that 4th slot on the start line for the individual races.

The women did well too. I started watching after Joanne Reid left the team the previously, so happy she is back, even if she did have 5 misses in the Sprint. Chloe and Deedra made the Pursuit, with Deedra coming in 17th and Chloe moving up 9 spots.

The US men did fantastic! 5th in SWE then 4th in AUT. Maybe 3rd in Ruhpolding? (Probably not, but one can dream)

Campbell did good in the Sprint, just missing the flower ceremony, and all 4 US Men made the pursuit, with all them getting WC points in the pursuit.

Biathlon, that awesome winter sport where depending on the race if you miss you take a penalty loop, get time added on, or have a set number of reloads to try again.

I am not familiar with those details, what happened there?

How much does Stanley love it?

HBS (the basic game) was so fun but left me wanting more (like how much you could deploy). I never got into the mods but instead found (and got obsessed with) MegaMek and their campaign feature MekHQ. Lacks a video game GUI but allows basically all the features from the actual TT BT game.

Thankfully the Prime Minister does not feel so constrained.

Her promo featurette youtu.be/9UVb7IRpvjM?...

I do wonder if Lou will have any struggles next week on home snow, but definitely feel like she is gearing up to run away with Yellow this year.

Hope they carry that forward into the relay tomorrow!

My first Battery Commander not only was a ring knocker but played in the game (including scoring TDs). He never made anyone in the Battery pay attention to the game, though as his XO, he gave me the book that was written about the game and even mentions him in it.

And here I thought we were friends.
