You don't say. :rolleyes:

I am putting this here rather than starting a new thread. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/02/18/magazine/olympics-historic-photo-baiul-kerrigan-chen.html?unlocked_article_code=1.N1A.de2B.VMCjVPXnIcms&smid=nytcore-android-share This link will self-destruct in thirty days. Good luck, Jim.

That was the exact problem that caused the 🇸🇪 :argue: 🇨🇦 controversy in the first place. Congratulations, Canada, for sweeping up the 🥇.

It won't be the end of the world if Chock and Bates stay home.
