Post Olympics Wrap Up

Returning to our normal format we take a look back at the recently completed Beijing Winter Olympics. We start by briefly covering the major stories from China including the dominance of Roeiseland, QFM, and JT Boe as well as some less well known stories. We then have our first NEW Power Rankings in the history of this podcast (32:00). Then we move on to our Under the Radar segment where we discuss a man who until recently was nowhere to be seen in biathlon, a young up and comer from a traditional biathlon nation, as well as an interesting potentially up and coming team with no biathlon tradition (42:00). In the General Topic we came the end of our discussion about the Olympic preparation plans of the major teams: Norway, Sweden, and France, and how it worked as well as Retirement Watch! Finally in our Stat of the Week RJ has done immense research comparing athletes performances at the Olympics vs. their performances in the first 2 trimesters of the season (1:17:25). Come join us on the Penalty Loop!
