I don't understand how this is history but BBC doesn't lie

>>1489568
>he is the first Briton to win two gold medals at a Winter Olympics having claimed individual gold just two days ago.

>>1489587
Wow and Michael Phelps won like 8 per Olympics lmao

skeleton isn't even a real sport and russias skeleton riders weren't allowed to compete

>>1489588

Yes, but he's American.

>>1489688
So what? Americans are the best at setting records

>>1489561
That's an English flag not a British flag

>>1489561
>mixed team skeleton
Sound like something Bongs would win.

It doesn't snow in Great Britain.
Brits are only good at football and rugby and silly walks

>>1489689
>Americans are the best at setting records
>US's Lance Armstrong: world's biggest cycling hypocrite
Chris Boardman on his Lotus-engineered bike in 1992 Barcelona. Since Chris Hoy in 2008 Beijing, UK dominates cycling.

>>1489740
Lmao ok uk, good job dominating "cycling"
You're our special little bitch we're so proud of you

>>1489746
Good job America, being UK's bitch in cycling, lol
>new events
>first gold in women's boxing: 2012 London
>first gold in mixed skeleton & snowboard cross: 2026 Milano-Cortina
America will never be first in those, kek

>>1489774
Yeah all those mountains in the UK are going to ensure you're great at snowboard cross

And our women don't have to fight, they have real men to do that for them

>>1489776
>Mutts can't win first golds in new events
>Mutts can't have women who can do boxing
I never thought that inferiority was some sort of flex, but you do you.

>>1489793
>>1489793
Chronologically first means nothing.
See: your empire

>>1489794
Chronologically, second means less than nothing.
>Trump's bluster & ego, but TACO
See: your empire
Again, there's that inferiority flex.

>>1489795
Agreed, chronology isn't important all that matters is America will be hegemon for the entirety of our life spans, at the very least. You will never know a world where America doesn't dominate you.
Enjoy your countryside being forcibly desgregated lmao

>>1489799
>desgregated
Enjoy your illiteracy, kek
You will never know a Winter Olympics where a Scandinavian country doesn't dominate you. Nor will America dominate in Cycling. Or winning new events.

>>1489568
"An Olympic gold medal on snow has long seemed like the impossible for Team GB's winter athletes. One hundred and two years, to be exact."
That's why it's history they've never even won before and they won twice this time

>>1489805
>That's why it's history they've never even won before
>never even won
>never
I'll take 'Who is Lizzy Yarnold and what medal did she win for which country, and who won silver for which country in what event at 2014 Sochi?' for $400, Alex.
It's your credibility that's history, anon.

>>1489561
The brits can have the Olympics as far as I'm concerned. We keep sending anti-American athletes that are more interested in talking shit about the nation PAYING THEM TO BE THERE than they are winning. So fuck 'em.

>>1489774
>Good job America, being UK's bitch in cycling, lol
Now do football (hand-egg?) next. And I'm not even saying it like you can't. I want you to beat the NFL so we stop paying billions of dollars on blacks just so they can kneel for the national anthem.

>>1489746
>Special relationship
Not after trump

>>1489811
You're arguing with a quote from the bbc, take it up with them not me. Looks like their point was you never won any of the snow events before, only ice?

>>1489812
>we
I want you to personally play for Team USA in 2028 Los Angeles. In Baseball. Against Cuba.
>guess which country has won gold at Baseball three times out of the six Olympics it's been included in

>we stop paying billions of dollars on blacks just so they can kneel for the national anthem

I guess Team USA will be having the Compton Cricket Club playing for them.

>>1489813
>That's why it's history they've never even won before and they won twice this time
BBC doesn't lie, but >>1489805 does

Cool story bro the headline is literally
"Why first gold on snow has been just a matter of time"

You don't have to take my word for it.

UK took over a century to win on snow lmao

>>1489820
>Why first new event gold on snow
...hasn't been won by USA if they're supposed to be so superior to all other countries, yet are inferior to Norway & Italy at 2026 Milano-Cortina, lol
>losing to Japan at Baseball in 2021 Tokyo
>not even a bronze at Baseball in 1992 Barcelona
The odds aren't looking good for you.

>>1489827
Holy shit that triggered you so hard. I love that you gave me this power over your emotions.

Our baseball players don't play in the Olympics, they make too much money to risk injury in a non-competitive event.

Keep calm and carry on rageposting I guess lmao

>>1489561
It's not Team UK it's Team GB

>>1489829
>USA not winning in a new event, and are inferior to Norway & Italy
Holy shit, that triggered you even harder. I love how you're such a snowflake when your inferiority is called out, kek

>>1489829
>Our baseball players don't play in the Olympics
https://www.mlb.com/news/every-mlb-team-s-best-olympian
Reality just keeps on proving opinions wrong

>>1489830
Whatever they're called it took 102 years lmao

>>1489838
Yes that's every teams best player that was shit enough to risk in the Olympics.

The best players on the Team don't go, they make too much money. The shit players that need the paycheck go.

Don't make me bring up the Ashes of your empire, britboi

>>1489843
>Ashes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ashes
You'll never win that, even in Cricket at 2028 Los Angeles. Just as your chances are slim against another bat & ball game against Cuba. No 'Our baseball players don't play in the Olympics, they make too much money to risk injury in a non-competitive event' excuses allowed. They don't think much of their own country, then. A professional baseball player - Eddy Alvarez - represented USA in short track speed skating at 2014 Sochi, so nobody else has the right to any excuses.
>MAGA Empire
Which crumbled to dust before it started. TACO. Many such cases.

>>1489851
Can't even beat your former penal colony in the ashes.
Can't beat India in t20

Maga never had an empire lmao

You will die long before America stops running the world. Keep digging up random sports factoids if it helps you cope, I'm done matching your energy.

Congratulations to Team England for their first gold medal on snow!

Team Muttland are still inferior to Norway & Italy in 2026 Milano-Cortina!
/sp/ called. They want their inbred village idiot back: you, >>1489853.

>>1489856
Congratulations to Norway, Italy, the United States, and everyone else further down the medal totals! Even if your nation can only win one or two medals, the Olympics are all about international cooperation and competition!

Congratulations to Norway & Italy, for being superior to USA

>>1489858
Excuuuuuuuse me but the UKs actually won 3 medals already so yeah not just one or two. 3 and the Olympics aren't even over yet. Also America is way bigger and has way more people who can ski and mountains so of course they have a wider talent pool than Britain it barely snows there

>>1489858
Why hasn't USA produced an athlete who could at least equal Finland's Lasse Viren in winning 5Km & 10Km golds in two successive Olympics: 1972 Munich & 1976 Montreal?

>>1489865
Wow good job to that random Finn from the 70s! I've never heard about him but he seems like he was a great athlete!
This thread was supposed to be about how great England is doing in the current Olympics, though...
>>1489862
Oh my bad, 3.

So why hasn't USA - if they're supposed to be 'superior' to the rest of the world - produced an athlete who could equal Finland's Lasse Viren in winning four 5Km & 10Km golds in two successive Olympics? Why hasn't USA done so, yet another country has?
If the Olympics are purely 'all about international cooperation and competition', therefore USA is inferior.

>>1489874
Wow I just looked up this Lasse guy you keep talking about, and he's a real hunk!
I still prefer Michael Phelps and Jason Kenny though

>he's a real hunk!
>hunk!
>he
I'm only interested in the women at these winter olympics, but thanks for admitting you're a homo 1489876

>>1489909
Guess again ;)

No need to guess that 1489876 1489916 is a faggot homo :^)

>>1489919
There are two kinds of people in this world, those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

>those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
...and the faggot 1489876 1489916

>>1489924
Two kinds of people are into men, anon. You're getting wooshed hard and I'm laughing

1489935 is a man who's into men, and I'm laughing :)
>Two kinds of people are into men
Tits or back into your closet, faggot

>>1489943
Sorry tits are for hubby and unicorns only

1489950 is a G.I.R.L.
lol
