Go girls. Go Olympians.
Wonderful story Britt.
Thank you !
It’s taken more than a century for women who chipped away at the narrative, who pushed boundaries and held their ground, to obliterate the last inane competitive shackle: starting a family.
Milano-Cortina was all about the moms.

Meet the busiest man at the Olympics, choreographer Benoit Richaud, who has 16 athletes from 13 different countries. He’s gone viral for all his jackets, but there’s a lot more to him than a cool coat.

On Wednesday night, Jordan Stolz sent his mom, Jane, a photo of his first gold medal on his pillow. Last night, he added another.
Much has been made of Stolz being cool under pressure. It’s how he was raised. On a generational star, for @TheAthletic:

Super mom strikes again. I think Italian speed skater Francesca Lollobrigida might be my favorite storyline of the Games so far:

If you don't know Jordan Stolz, you should. The 21-year-old phenom is NFL quarterback famous in the Netherlands and practically anonymous in the US. That could change quickly for the Wisconsin native, who captured his first gold medal in his Olympic debut.

If you haven't heard of Jordan Stolz, you will soon. The biggest unknown star at these Olympics will race in his first event today.

Jordan Stolz, cat dad, speed skater extraordinaire, is poised to (finally) become a US star. He’s already getting Michael Phelps comparisons.
On his ascent and the blades he’s been saving for 1.5 years for Milan for @theathletic.com:

Jutta Leerdam of Team Netherlands celebrates after breaking the Olympic record during Speed Skating Women's 1000m
From @theathletic.com: The Netherlands' Jutta Leerdam just broke her teammate Femke Kok's Olympic record to win gold in the women's 1000-meter speed skating. It is her first Olympic gold medal.
Japan's Miho Takagi just beat American Brittany Bowe to get bronze. nyti.ms/4reRs96
Celebrating a gold medal with your two year old son is amazing. www.nytimes.com/athletic/702...
“I hope I’m also teaching them, and anyone else watching me skate, to chase their dreams even when they seem crazy. Especially if they do.”

Blogged my most correct take for @cnn.com: the goalpost uprights should be worth extra.
But first I brought the proposal to some experts on the subject. www.cnn.com/2026/02/03/s...
Yessss congrats !
Dodgers’ splurge on Tucker will increase calls for a salary cap, but MLB needs other fixes. Column: www.nytimes.com/athletic/697...
Free agent LHP Tim Collins is pursuing a comeback. Collins, 36, last pitched in spring training 2020 - and was a MiLB pitching coach for the Phillies in 2024. He'll throw for scouts this Wednesday at the Cressey Sports Performance pro day in Palm Beach Gardens, FL.
Great profile by Marcus Thompson on Ilia Malinin.
