2026 Winter Olympics

Man Vonn's injury was bad but, she did it to herself. At 41 with a ruptured ACL she should've bowed out and let a younger athlete have a chance of winning. I use to love too watch her during the World Cup but now I don't think theirs a mountain large enough to support her ego.

Has anyone seen the athletes in the Luge and Skeleton wearing GoPro's? the footage is insane.
 
Mixed feelings about Vonn. I always thought she liked her ego stroked.
Amazing skier, tough as nails. But she struggled out of the limelight.
The comeback had me rooting for her though. Old folks kicking ass. But at 41, with a ruptured acl, this wasn't going to end well. Yeah, I heard all the talk about it not affecting her abilities. But the downhill is unforgiving to any distraction no matter how " inconsequential ".
In the meantime, all the focus on Vonn has spared Shiffrin. The GOAT. She should perform better in this Olympics after all the expectations that weighed her down the last go around.
At least I hope so.

Vonn was still legit. She was leading the 2025-2026 World Cup competition. Her crash had nothing to do with her ACL. She tried to cut an edge and was 5” too aggressive.

In other news, Jake Paul’s girlfriend won a gold metal for the Netherlands setting an Olympic record in 1000 speed skating. Jake was crying in the crowd.
