Olympic medals are decided on one race per discipline, globes on like 8 races spread out over a season per discipline. And then there is the overall globe which is the person who gathered the most points overall. In skiing its very hard to be consistent at this level so the globes mean a lot.

Idk, Hirscher is probably the goat. On eye test and how dominant he was.

Specifically in skiing the crowning achievement is the crystal globe anw, not the Olympics.

To this day I have never seen another skier who dominated like Marcel and who passed the eye test like this. Attacking every single turn in every single run.

The thessaloniki metro in northern Greece has been having that issue for years and years. Athens metro also had it, naturally.

I was a racer on the verge of Europa cup, no. Hirscher won by seconds in a much more competitive time and age oh and let's not forget the man won so many overalls he just got tired and fucked off still in his prime. And the numbers on their own mean little to me. I'd put Tomba over Ingemar too.
