Finally, Swayman gets his goalie fight 🙏🏼

so goofy 🥴

The First Amendment makes America America. This is a reprehensible attempt to threaten and deter journalists

A gut punch: Lindsey Vonn's Olympic status is in question after she suffered a crash Friday in the final downhill race before Milano Cortina www.forbes.com/sites/michel...

Meet the U.S. Olympic freeski team! 16 athletes will be competing across two disciplines: halfpipe and slopestyle. www.forbes.com/sites/michel...

Meet the U.S. Olympic snowboarding team! There are 24 riders competing across four disciplines: halfpipe, slopestyle, snowboard cross and parallel giant slalom. www.forbes.com/sites/michel...

Whether or not the 2026 Winter Olympics ice hockey venue will be ready in time for the first games on February 5 might depend on your definition of "ready." www.forbes.com/sites/michel...

A lot is going to be made about the Jamaican bobsledders with a really good young talent in Shane Pitter. But also Axel Brown and the Trinidad & Tobago bobsled team qualified for four-man bobsled for the first time ever. The country has had a two-man sled in a few Games, including 2022.

I’m higher on Christian Parker maybe than most? Can’t ignore that the 2021–23 Broncos and 2024–26 Eagles had/have more DB talent than Packers do presently but both units were great under him. I’ve long fantasized about what GB could do with Fangio at DC; one of his assistants wouldn’t be bad

New England accent:

I assume our neighbors in Chicago have to be able to hear my husband screaming THICKER KICKER over and over and over

Do not throw for the end zone omgggggg

These playoffs will be the death of me

new obsession*: Italian margaritas (*not surprising, since I could pretty much drink straight amaretto)

Wrote about some trends I saw at the Laax Open and how it might predict what we’ll see in snowboarding at the Milano Cortina Olympics www.forbes.com/sites/michel...

It’s after midnight and I’ve seen this play 30 times. I’m still livid at how this went down and feel horrible for the Bills. 1) It’s a catch, tie goes to offense 2) If not, at WORST it’s an incomplete pass 3) It was ruled an interception on the field, TAKE TIME AND REVIEW THE MFer!

Got a press release from Milano Cortina 2026 that the Italian actor Massimo Boldi would no longer be a torchbearer following an interview where he expressed opinions “incompatible with Olympic values.” Well of course, I had to look up what he said. Did he dive into international politics?

Just want to stress that this was a woman who was simply trying to get to a doctor's appointment.

I laughed entirely too hard

I know it’s not the universe’s fault that I’m a weird Packers and Red Sox fan who lives in Chicago, but the Cubs yoinking Bregman right after the Bears killed the Packers is insult to injury

the worst part is that I knew exactly how that game would go. of course the Packers would blow an early lead. of course the Bears would inexplicably be unstoppable in the fourth.

McManus is a terrible kicker, but at least he’s also a terrible person

Clearly the Bruins need to wear the whites at home moving forward

This is the heart of it. Any press coverage that gullibly paints this partisan punitive campaign of retribution as "fighting crime" or "enforcing immigration laws" is actively complicit in a government campaign to punish dissent.

My husband, unprompted, as he turned on the Bruins game for me: “Boston–New York. Ilya versus Scott.” Me: 😍😍😍

Excited to be included in this great starter pack; can’t wait to be on the ground in Italy! Watch this space for snowboarding and freestyle skiing ⛷️🏂🥇

😬

You could not pay me $10 million a year to be an NFL kicker

+1

How many times have I yelled “Oh my god!” during this game?

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Saturday night NFL is perverted

Rockstar Energy Open 🤩 📍Breckenridge, CO

It’s getting real. Fifty days to go! 😮🥇

What a treat to see the Shoresy Fall Classic live at TD Garden. Pints of Puppers, Chara facing off against Keeso, goalie fights, a hard lap with the tarps off, game sticks...Boston may as well be Sudbury South www.forbes.com/sites/michel...

a pilgrimage

Alludes 🤦🏻‍♀️

Trump take tea

*Tim Robinson voice* that one loss was three losses?

I know I don’t have the heart of a competitor because what McManus has to do here is my fucking NIGHTMARE

disillusioned but I suppose still delusional because I just muttered to my husband, “I guess I have to keep watching in case they get a pick-six or something”
