Ugh, so classless. Probably didn’t even acknowledge the Women’s team win on top of this stupid post.

Prince Andrew's Arrest Across the pond in Britain, justice and accountability is a serious matter

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

Wow. Prince Andrew was arrested. The former prince, whatever. Wonder if any British royal ever arrested or charged in history for a crime

#MilanoCortina2026 We should take all the media people who insist on overhyping athletes' chances for a podium spot & calling them "failures" if they don't make it, & send them down the bobsled run. Who's with me? Not just the stand-up reporters, but the editors and producers who demand that crap.

Y'all don't understand how earth-shattering it is for a Japanese team to win the Olympics in pairs skating

Until literally Riku/Ryu came along, Japan had never ever had a single good pairs OR ice dance team

Halfway to realizing her improbable dream, Deanna Stellato-Dudek is not β€˜going down without a fight’ By competing at the Milan Cortina Olympics, Deanna Stellato-Dudek realized an improbable dream that nearly became an impossible one two weeks ago.

The short program results say one thing. They don't say this woman of a certain age has succeeded in a 10-year quest. My story for NBC Olympics.

Here in US, NBC coverage has mics on ice, which allows hearing blades on ive. Always surprised not picking up on which partner calls the spin rotations. It’s usually louder skater.
