France has to give them St. Pierre and Miquelon now (Not advocating for a war, in fact proposing an alternate non military method of settling territorial claims)

There can only be one

To be clear I haven’t spoken for or against starting a potential World War III. I have simply said I don’t want to start a Second World War I

you're goddamn right @rodger.bsky.social sports.beehiiv.com/p/olympics-d...

Rodger is the chronicler that this Olympics of Mess (complimentary) deserves

This sentence is a bar: “So we have official proof: the Norwegians were just crotch parachute merchants. “ @sickoscommittee.org

You’ve got some competition my friend. Here is my project from yesterday…

DMs filling up with people asking to hire my graphic designer. This may be surprising but I actually made this myself

I continue to be fascinated by a man’s belief in a sports ability to eject a uterus. www.melissaludtke.com/blog/2018/2/...

honestly kinda surprised this story hasn't blown up more the Italian curling team's coaching staff got rid of a player who had been on the team for years and replaced her on the Olympic roster with one of their daughters

Italy's Lisa Vitozzi wins the first-ever Italian gold medal in biathlon history — and bows to the crowd before crossing the finish line, queen and Italy has officially won its most gold medals of any Winter Olympics ever (8!) with a full week to go. THE HOST NATION BUMP!

"Previously, none of the first 22 nations mentioned by Bad Bunny in the Super Bowl halftime show had won Winter medals." Enter: Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, Olympic champion in the giant slalom! @rodger.bsky.social recaps Day 9 ➡️ sports.beehiiv.com

want to be clear that this was a copy-paste oversight and not an attempt to start any sort of international military conflict

FIS is the federation in charge of alpine skiing, cross country, freestyle skiing, ski jumping, and believe it or not snowboarding, but they’re NOT in charge of biathlon and they are MAD ABOUT IT

OLYMPICS NEWSLETTER, DAY 9 WHOAAAAAAAAAA WE'RE HALFWAY THERE WHOAAAAA-OH! SNOWBOARDING BIG AIIIIIR ⛷️🗻🇧🇷 Ski gold for Brazil! 🇧🇷⛷️🗻 🍆📈 Our international sex nightmare is over🍆📈 🤕A Swedish ski catastrophe🤕

YIKES

ON DAY 9 OF THE OLYMPICS, CANADA FINALLY WINS ITS FIRST GOLD

the more I think about it the more I think Brazil winning alpine skiing gold is appropriate revenge for this

HANG THE BANNER

bumping this 100% accurate take on a rare Dunk Contest/Winter Olympics Saturday

Finland down 1-0 in the women's quarterfinal, on the power play, pulling the goalie and going 6-4 for the final two minutes, electric stuff

3 short track golds in 4 races for the Netherlands, one standard speed skating gold in 7 events This is like if the USA stopped winning all the basketball gold medals but started winning all the 3-on-3 basketball gold medals

There are 9 skaters in this short track speed skating final due to I think crashes in the qualifiers and I am predicting like 6 of them crash

It really is just plainly true that in sport after sport there are instances of athletes who are clearly the best in the world for years at a time totally faceplanting in the Olympics.

The NYC Marriage Bureau is truly one of the coolest places I’ve ever been. Everyone wants their wedding to be Their Big Day, but there you had all these different couples — every race/age/orientation, big weddings/elopements etc. — all having their Big Days, together, in first-come first-serve order

doing the Pele/Maradona chant I heard at every Rio 2016 event about how Brazil somehow got a winter Olympic medal before Argentina despite Argentina having all the mountains and snow

I’m really enjoying this newsletter because I need sports with a side of gossip

rodger absolutely slaying as usual.

It's Day 8 of @rodger.bsky.social's free Olympic newsletter. Today, he explains that Canada-Sweden curling beef, breaks down Ilia Malinin's disaster free skate, and recaps the women's snowb— HOLY SHIT! LOOK AT THE MULLET! sports.beehiiv.com

so i looked into this after there were Olympic records in the first 3 or 4 speed skating events think it pretty much just happens every 4 years 2022: 9 Olympic records in 12 speed skating events 2026: 5 Olympic records in 7 speed skating events

hold up wait you're telling me that my critically acclaimed newsletter, Sports! by Rodger Sherman, is delivering the world's best daily Olympic newsletter into people's inboxes for free? how can that possibly be profitable for Frito-Lay

TWO RACES, TWO OLYMPIC RECORDS FOR JORDAN STOLZ this dude is unreal

What a tribute to an Brazilian soccer player, the King Pelé.

What a tribute to an Italian legend

I'M TRYING MY BEST HERE

MEDALHA DE OURO BRASIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLL Lucas Pinheiro Braathen becomes the first South American ever to win a medal in any Winter Olympic event!!!!!

history on the line in the men's giant slalom with one run to go: Brazil's Lucas Piinheiro Braathen leads by almost a full second — he'd be the first South American to win any Winter Olympic medal ever (born in Norway, Brazilian mom, split time between the countries, speaks Portuguese and sambas)

THEY STILL WON SILVER!

CROSS COUNTRY SKIING DISASTER a skier from Sweden, the heavy gold medal favorites in the women's cross country relay, falls head over heels, breaks her ski, and has to go forward with just one ski a coach also fell over in an attempt to bring her a backup ski

Many people. Are saying this.

THE SKELETON GUY WON, OKAY

Canadians making every ice sport hockey. I respect it.

How could Korey Dropkin violate the spirit of curling like this???

scrolling through my timeline I am starting to get the sense my plan of saving the figure skating for later so my wife and I can watch it together may have backfired

CURLING BEEF! CURLING BEEF! CURLING BEEF! CURLING BEEF! (I never post Olympic videos bc the IOC will hunt you down but I am taking that risk so that you can hear the Canadian curling cursing)

STANDING ON HER HEAD (hockey term that i know)

Italian goalie STANDING ON HER HEAD to keep it 1-0 (this is one of 3-ish hockey terms I know and will use whenever I have the chance)

It's pretty awesome that Italy made it to the quarterfinals of the women's hockey tournament after being outscored 32-1 in three games the only other time they made the Olympics but unfortunately they are playing the USA now and there will be no mercy
