Marchesi's final stone just does too much and Korea will be going to the semifinals.

Now it's Korea's time out, they now sit one, discussion is probably about laying a guard down or taking out Italian stones.

Italy call their time out - they're sitting three right now but things are open

Huge shot for the Italian skip at the end of the seventh, Italy lies one, but it curled too much and they only take one. Scores tied going in to eight in what is a virtual quarterfinal against Korea. Korea has the hammer

Some athletes are getting excess baggage charges, my recap of this morning's alpine skiing: paralympicsportsnews.wordpress.com/2026/03/12/w...

I keep meaning to go and I never have.

One interesting thing under this is Iraq are having trouble making the playoff. The first team on the list to take Iran's spot? Iraq.

I still get my favorite part though the “wait that’s not structurally sound” investigation

Just feels like if no progress is being made you have to strike now or you’re signaling the status quo is fine. Call their bluff on the scabs.

We love USL soccer, but we support the welfare and livelihood of USL players more.

Those blue no matter who people were awful quiet when Mamdani got the NYC nomination too

Our Joy Will Endure Cricket is full of dysfunction and ego and people trying to make us miserable. The ones who thrive in spite of that will live forever.

Inspired in part by @rodger.bsky.social:

Cricket's halls of power full of awful people and systems that want to convince us that they are the only way forward, eager to shape the game for their own wealth/status/ideology. But they only win if we let them make us miserable.

My look at this morning's cross-country skiing - a big day for the USA. paralympicsportsnews.wordpress.com/2026/03/11/u...

A well managed house sees Latvia take bronze as the Americans just kiss the wide stone.

They’ll probably just give it to Italy when they fuck up the playoffs

All those options are having same issue Iran is having. UAE is next in line after Iraq anyway

China claims the first ever gold medal in wheelchair curling mixed doubles, winning in the extra end 9-7, silver for Korea. Bronze extra end still going

China don't get enough on the final stone and the inaugural mixed doubles wheelchair curling goes to an extra end

We've seen similar statements before and FIFA was like "well that's not the football federation" but the irony is that the team that would take their spot, Iraq, are currently struggling to get to the Playoff so may also have issues, UAE is next in the list, so I wonder what FIFA will do

Great work on the powerplay for Korea and it's 7-6 to China heading to the final end

Second straight end scored for Korea and they cut the gap to two, China opt for the powerplay in the sixth.

Your update from the bronze game: Latvia 6 USA 5

Korea under pressure and will take a single making it 5-2 at the break.

It's a double in the third for China and it's 5-1, look this is doubles so not unassailable but also it's China

Especially wild since Italy and Mexico can now guarantee the USA is out. Don't think it'll be so hated as the "disgrace of Gijon" is

After an initial scoreboard malfunction, the correct one goes on the board it's China 3 Korea 0 after one in the mixed doubles gold medal game
