Standing in my living room clapping for the Team USA Winter Olympians who won 10 gold medals in sports other than hockey.

The Milan-Cortina Olympics have been wildly dramatic for U.S. stars: Liu, Shiffrin, Malinin, Vonn. Jordan Stolz does not do drama, but leaves as the most decorated American, w/promise of more. Column for

In case you missed Lewis Johnson's segment on Peacock, here's the photo of 10yo Jordan Stolz, 73 pounds, with a 142-pound halibut he landed on a family trip to Alaska in 2014. 📷 by Jane Stolz

@PatrickJGarrity @NBCOlympics @NBCSports Thank you, Patrick. And yes, I think about Duf and Andy every day. Great guys.

@ByTimLayden @NBCOlympics @NBCSports Great stuff, as always, Tim. One of my greatest memories in my old life as a sportswriter was hanging in the mixed zone adjacent to you and Bill Pennington and Andy Gardiner and Chris Dufresne and Wayne Coffey, some of whom are gone far too soon.

While I'm re-posting stats here are a few in the "positive" column.

A summary of stats for Shiffrin - a couple from @nzaccardi Mikaela Shiffrin wins the slalom by 1.50 seconds, the largest margin in any Olympic Alpine skiing event since 1998. She is the first U.S. skier to win three Olympic gold medals and both the youngest (2014, 18) and oldest (2026, 30) U.S. woman to win Alpine gold. Mikaela Shiffrin wins women's slalom gold by 1.50 seconds - largest margin in the event since 1988 when Vreni Schneider (SUI) won by 1.68 seconds. First USA skier to win the slalom twice, only second overall after Schneider. Shiffrin’s 2 golds 12 years apart would be the largest gap ever between individual gold medals in the same event at the Winter Olympics. Only 4 others have won golds in the same event after a gap of 12 years, all in team events. Second USA woman to win 4 Alpine skiing medals – after Julia Mancuso.

Olympic pressure is real and athletes face it personally. On Jordan Stolz, Ilia Malinin, Mikaela Shiffrin and the scoreboard that always gets the last word. Column for @NBCOlympics @NBCSports

What a sad day. John Shirreffs was a beacon of kindness, dignity and good humor -- backside or front side. Godspeed. You were a joy to be around, every single time. 📷@JayHovdey

U.S. speed skater Jordan Stolz, who could win four medals and talks about eventually duplicating Heiden 1980 (iykyk), starts tomorrow with the 1000 meters. Here's the deep dive I wrote on him for @NBCSports @NBCOlympics .

Race No. 1 in the books: Gold in 1000m by .50 seconds (a lot) in an Olympic record. 3 to go.

Another Olympic race for Mikaela Shiffrin, and, astonishingly, another medal-less struggle. nbcolympics.com/news/mikaela-s…

Mikaela Shiffrin, by far the best slalom skier in history, was 15th of 18 skiers who completed the course in the alpine combined. Befuddling. Shiffrin/Breezy Johnson 4th, .06 behind Wiles/Moltzan (USA) for bronze.

Given one more chance, of course @lindseyvonn pushed it. And crashed. That doesn’t negate a remarkable 2-year comeback. Story for @NBCSports @NBCOlympics

@ByTimLayden @lindseyvonn @NBCSports @NBCOlympics Incredible column, Tim! I had not seen your first article last year about Vonn’s attempted comeback—but wow—you nailed it. Appropriate then and certainly now.

Here's a story I wrote about gold medalist Breezy Johnson 4 years ago as she watched the Olympic Games from afar, after a terrible injury in .... Cortina.
