Considering where Lara GB and Brignone ended up, it seems pretty damn good…congrats to Marta Bassino

What is more crazy for a sport that winning is determined in tenth and hundredths of seconds:
A - The casual observers (including some media outlets) assume Shiffrin should win every race?
B - that Shiffrin continues to win an astonishing amount of races?
Kilde got silver in the super-G the day after Shiffrin's super-G silver. He was edged by Canadian James Crawford by just .01 sec.
"She gives me a lot of inspiration in the way she competes, and we give each other support," Kilde said. "Seeing that we're both silver medalists, it's a cool story. Let's make it a gold at the next opportunity."

It’s been fantastic watching the races live. Mikaela spoke to me! Trip of a lifetime!
Shiffrin is changing coaches. Mike Day has been released. Developing story.
From USA Team:
“Mikaela Shiffrin will be moving forward with new coaching and will continue to be supported closely by the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team coaches for the remainder of the season and in the future. The team thanks Mike Day for his work and great success over the last seven years.”
From Shiffrin:
“After working with Mike Day for seven seasons, I’ve decided to move forward with new leadership on my team for the next phase of my career. I want to thank Mike and acknowledge all of his work and dedication over the last several years.”
Something bad must have happened.
Really odd timing - clearly something unexpected. Maybe an issue between him and Kilde, or shady actions with others on the team??!! Distractions like this are never helpful...
Or he pissed off Megan Harrod. She takes no shit from anyone.
Yeah. That was my thought too. Pretty cold statements for something like this, and really odd timing.Quote:

Or Eileen Shiffrin - she has some pull…Quote:

Nope. World Championship medals don't count towards that record.Quote:
