Gosh, I'd give you one of mine if I could find them. Not Olympic ones, of course, but they'd still count.Yup. That's where I'm going with my two spots for everyone granted they reached a standard score.
I had a great swim today. 2600 meters including a 400 îm race. Where's my?
I finally worked myself up to a mile swim a year or so back. It took me some months to do it, but still OK for 65. Since then, my pool in no longer available, so I'm glad I re-reached that milestone beforehand. I don't particularly care to continue lap swimming regularly, but I dang sure wanted that mile under my belt.

If I had to bet on the ladies winner... and I'm glad this is only hypothetical because I'd never take such a gamble with real money... I'd bet on Alysa.
Why? Because the field is so danged tight that any mistake might be fatal. I think she's the most likely to skate two clean programs. That's what happened at GPF. She didn't win either the Long or the Short, but she didn't make any mistakes in either program, so Gold Medal thank you very much.

Will the "Time for Each Skater" PDFs be available for the Individual events? I hope so, because I really want to catch certain skaters live.

There is a time for each skater file for the Team Men's SP so I presume there will be one for each non team event segment.

Peacock doesn't care, but they only purchased rights for the USA. If people from other countries start watching Peacock, the rights holder from those countries will complain or possibly sue NBC/Peacock for damages. NBC would have to show that they are doing everything reasonable/possible to block foreign viewers.
Whoever is selling the rights (the IOC?) wants to keep rights holders happy, so they will be able to sell rights for a high price in the future. This trickles down to rights holders keeping other rights holder happy and not breaching their contracts.

I think I cannot watch RD. Whoever does not make it to the free, it is good team who disqualifies. 2022 scores needed have been 65,53. I suppose this time less than 75 will be too low.
Btw, why couple of events start so late even local time (10 pm Italian time)? Is it because of hockey or other ice sport earlier on the arenas?

It might be so it can be live at a better time elsewhere?
Figure skating shares an arena with short track speed skating. You can see the depth of the padding on the boards that is there for the speed skaters' safety.

Definitely wasn't better on Pacific time. Right when I'm asleep. All I've seen so far are the performances of the Canadian skaters, shown on CBC sports news recap of the event)

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but has anyone attended the team event in person? I’m wondering what the organisation is like at the arena because I’ve been reading that a lot of other events like ice hockey and the opening ceremony have been a bit chaotic and run out of food etc. I head to Milan tomorrow so want to know what to prepare for!

Does anyone know if the ISU live stream (the one with Mark) exists for the Olympics? Have been watching the ISU feed for all previous competitions via youtube but can't find it now. Watched yesterday's team skate via CBC/Gem livestream after the fact, but as much as I adore Kurt, Carol and Brenda drive me crazy. Anyone?

The answer is no. Everything Olympics is rights, rights, rights. But, despite the inane commentary, at least Gem has everything. We recorded NBC coverage and their RD went like 'we don't care, skip', French, 'we don't care, skip', Italians, 'we don't care, skip', Americans. Like, maybe they have shown the Brits, but at this point I rage-quitted and went to crouch on the floor to play Gem from laptop to TV. Also, Gem replays don't have commercials. NBC nearly made my thumb fall off to go past all the garbage and see these three dances.
