For what I understand the brackets was based on the standings on the preliminary rounds.

The losing team between US and Canada gets to keep Justin Bieber. :)

Ha!  They will fight to the death!

I tried moguls, my knees hurt after like only 3 of them, of course I wasn't doing them right. Skiers, man they have nutcrackers for legs, no pun intended. John Williams... genius. So inspiring... @3:

They're shooting .22LR at 50 meters. Target is about a 1.5" for prone and 4.5" for standing.

It was on the news paper this morning... not sure I want to bet, Justin seems to like staying in the USA (maybe a little too much).

IF the US men beat the Canadian men, can we all agree that Russia then gets Bieber?  Canada women won their game, so it would be split.

Streaming it on my phone via the NBC Live Extra app.  Its easier to pretend that I'm doing work when I can at least have work on my computer screen.

1-0 Canada, 3 minutes into the second period.

Canada having the better of it so far. Quick has had to be very good in goal.

Edit: There's 8:42 left in the second period and there has been 3 stoppages in play. End-to-end hockey action.

Edit: I hate Sidney Crosby as much as a casual hockey fan can.

I have to say that the US has a pretty damn good team this year. But Canada seems to be in control for the most part. :-)

Anyone else having difficulty breathing between whistles? What a game, so far!

That second period took all of about 25 minutes to play.

      Day 105: mirror work today. Focused on not looping my hands at the top of the swing. Straight down.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 26) - Worked on weight shift feel using slap stick drill (hands about 6” apart - coming back weight on trail foot - down - thru weight on lead foot….moved it to hitting chips w/9i playing what I call “leap frog” - hit 1st about 10yds, the next a couple past the 1st, for about 6 balls total.  Love it as the lies change, the distances vary making each swing slightly different.
