Marc Kennedy was bang to rights and the most concerning part for me was how it looked like it was his usual technique. Probably why Sweden were recording it in the first place.
Should have been thrown out of the Olympics imo.

Agreed. Itâs just not cricket.
Very disappointed he didnt just give them a âboomâ instead

Perhaps this happened yesterday. An interview revealed that Klopp was at the German House last night and asked some athletes for selfies. This caused great surprise and a lot of joy, with reactions like, âWhat?! Klopp wants a picture with us?!â 
Apparently, they had a lot of fun there.

You need to feed that Insta account.
This interview was just broadcast live on German television during the biathlon coverage. No photos.

Canada won the Womenâs Team Pursuit. The 3 ladies on the podium hugging and singing our national anthem is such a beautiful scene.

Sure. Sure. Sure.
Money grabbing bastard is what he is. He has been served his entire career on a silver platter by the Norwegian Skii Federation but cannot be bothered to follow collective rules for sponsorship.
I find him a very unimpressive person and the worst type of role model for aspiring Norwegian athletes.
Honestly, the Swedish womens team are the best in the world.
Norway were lucky, our womens team is not the best now after Johaug and our other stars became pensioners.
But the lady you speak of, she was our chance, because she is famously bad downhill and when we saw the type of snow it was, many Norwegians went âoh, this is going to get interesting, let us see if she plows downhill on that surfaceâ (meaning the snow was the type of snow where you cannot plow downhill, but she is famously bad at high speed).
And she did. And she fell. But itâs gold we in Norway know very well Sweden should have won (if she was better downhill). When it comes to the men, we have a stellar team that wins everything so itâs of course very cool that also our womenâs team manages to do well (Swedish failure always welcome too, up to a point).

Why ? Eddie the Eagle is still famous in Scandinavia and will live forever in Scandinavian myth and legend 
Seriously, I grew up on tales about him. Fond warm tales of the guy actually. He is like a cultural curiosity, like a Nigerian on ice.

Hats off to Michaela Shiffrin. She has been the best in the WC for so long, but this is her first olympic medal since 2014.

The little National Norwegian goal that no one in Norway thought we could challenge in 2026, is this:
Still days to go though and I am starting to get confident that âweâ will actually get more than 16 gold. For instance, the 50 kilometer CrossCountry (which by the way is the distance, that we by far, respect the most in Norway and the gold medal in the olympics that hangs the highest of all regardless of sports, because it is the most physical, as well as traditional one, on the Olympic program) , KlĂŚbø will win it unless he gets sick given how extraordinary a sportsman he is.
And then we only need 1 more to get 17. And 6 more medals of various sorts should be probably doable.
All of this is funny, because when the Olympics began, some of our favorites had accidents and didnât take gold or even medals, so the media went on about the Italian Curse (Norway does traditionally poorly in Italian Olympics).
Here is the dog video on YTâŚwith a photo finish at the end!
From one of the comment:
Itâs a Czechoslovakian wolfdog named Nazgul. He lives at a nearby bed and breakfast and escaped when his owners went to watch the biathlon event. They said âhe always finds the peopleâ. An official at this event recognized him and called the owners and got him back home safely.

At least it is not leaving the droppings all over the hill. Then again, maybe the video quality is so poor that we just didnât see it.
