It’s hard to believe, but in a refreshing turn of events, an American athlete at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina is actually proud to be representing the United States. 
If you’re rooting for Team USA, it’s been a frustrating few weeks. Instead of a time of collective unity built around supporting the team and the country, press conferences have been filled with absurd comments from skiers like Hunter Hess, turncoats like Eileen Gu, and self-obsessed skaters like Amber Glenn. And let’s not forget the self-serving platitudes from Mikaela Shiffrin.

Despite falling short of the postseason in 2025, the Detroit Lions are still being treated like one of the NFL’s elite by oddsmakers.
DraftKings has released 2026 regular-season win totals, and Detroit’s number is set at 10.5 wins, with the over priced at –130 and the under at +110.
