btw I dunno if this will work outside the USA but here's SHUSTAHHHHH giving a tearful, incoherent interview after beating Canada

http://www.nbcolympics.com/news/john...against-canada

The few quotes you can make out:
"The Olympics has been so tough for me"
"This isn't my story, my story isn't what's been happening so far"
...something about Dan Jansen

What would be the point of watching sports if I didn't build a model.

Odds are pregame for the games being played right now.

Big games for Scotland, Japan, Canada, and Norway!

Men's team is pretty much out of it. Have to win out to have a chance.

Women's team are tied for fourth with GB and would be in a playoff with GB for medal round if it stays that way. Realistically they probably need to win out too though.

Optimizing between gold medal odds, game-specific odds, and performance at the olympics.

FWIW optimizing just for olympics performance really disadvantaged the canadians relative to the other two dimensions

LOL. I doubt it would make a ton of difference on the projections at this point.
