There hasn't been much discussion of the Olympics

Just wanted to chime in USA on top but of course 15 medals!! Hell yeah!

Also anyone else notice that this years games are much more sloppy than previous games? I mean the downhill womans yesterday 3 girls wiped out hard! It’s not just that either, everyone is wiping out consistenly, not finishing the courses etc. Not to mention the death of the Georgian luger. Even the pairs skating (and don’t act like your woman don’t make you watch) are making some huge errors and still winning. Cross country woman’s one of them fell off a ledge down a slope and hit a rock! I mean WTF? Just don’t eve remember the Olympics being this dangerous.

I wouldn’t watch the Winter Olympics even if they were taking place on my patio.

The only Olympic event I am interested in is the USA-Canada Mens Hockey match-up. Oh, and I recently fell in love with Julia Mancuso!

Just for you bro, Julia Mancuso is all her glory :smiley:

Winter Olympics? Yawn. Wake me when women’s volleyball comes on in 2012.

Shooting is the only thing that interests me, and they play a few minutes here and there. Not enough to sit down and wait for it to come on.

Don’t care in the least about skiing, skating, bobsled, and whatever else they are doing.

I’m loving it! Not only do I get to watch hockey but I get to watch women’s hockey. It doesn’t get any better!

GO CANADA!!! (for the men’s team)

GO USA!!! (for the women’s team)

You obviously havent seen some of the women that are participating…

I have been watching the medal count though, the USA is looking good. I used a weighted scale to see how everyone compares (5-gold, 3-silver, 1-bronze) and so far we are ahead.

Hopefully canada loses to the swiss for mens hockey.

We’ve watched a little. That short track speed skating stuff is wild. Have not had it on the last couple days though. The wife is a little more keen than I am though once on I tend to watch with her. Wife has had night shift though yesterday and tonight so the boy has the Wii on instead.

Look at who is putting it on :stuck_out_tongue:

What do you expect? eh?

(just jokin’)

That was one awesome game! Crosby getting the game-winner in a shootout had to have been exciting for the home crowd! Great game.

Up next for me is the China vs Russia womens game!

I got no problem watching it everyday. It sure as Hell beats most other things on TV.:smiley:

Wife’s had it on every day. I’ll pay attention to the short track speedskating, snowboarding, hockey, anything with Lindsey Vonn, and strangely enough curling.

I can do without the ice skating…when that crap comes on it’s time for me to fire up the PS3.


That Canada/swiss hockey game was awesome! USA v Canada this sunday! cant wait :slight_smile: I personally like the winter olympics more than the summer…

And Julia Mancuso is my new favorite skier :):slight_smile:

Shaun white was wicked the other night in the half pipe. Just closing around on his victory run he smashed his first score. The women snow boarding was pathetic. WTF were they even doing in the olympics. They barely could get out of the pipe.

I quoted this just so we could see it again. :smiley:

I love some events and dont care about others. Just an FYI there is the biathlon, cross country skiing and shooting.

I love it when they talk about the biathlon and call the participants bi-athletes.

That was a great game! Canada better hustle if they want to beat the USA on Sunday.
