Is the Jennifer Jones melt down on it's way? Her level of play has tailed off since earlier in the week, and is looking terrible vs the Americans today, handing them points left and right. (Not entirely her fault. Laws has been equally terrible)

They've locked up first place in the round robin, concentration and intensity is lacking in this match.

Those were back-to-back great shots by Jacobs to score two in his match against China.

Dutch about to sweep the womens 1500m. Ridonkulous

Jacobs makes a great draw to just give up two. Poorly played end by the team

Nothing like 13 rocks in the house and in the end (get it?), Canada score 1.

Amazing shot by China but Jacobs handed it to him again.

That puts them on top of the table for the moment with an astonishing 16 medals in speed skating (and 1 in short track).

Still another 6 medals up for grabs in the men's 10,000M and the women's 5000M, plus both of the team pursuits.

Not out of the question that they top 20 medals just in speed skating.

We need to ship them some Under Armor parachute suits.

Haha.

Honestly though, this may be one of the most impressive team accomplishments in Olympic history.

 

[BlueWolfZero]

Jacobs really stepped up his game the last couple of ends

 

[elocomotive]

Now this is perfectly-timed photography...

They received 6 nines except for the Russian judge who awarded them 8.

Holy doodle, draw to the button for Jacobs to defeat China. What a shot!!

 

[BlueWolfZero]

Virtue and Moir second after the short behind the usual bs judging of Davis and White

Snowcross qualifications, a snowboarder went down hard and was screaming about her knee. Like really LOUD. NBC goes to commercial and comes back to show an American's boarder's run like nothing happened.



So, uhhhh, what happened to the other girl? Is she alive? Anything, NBC? I know she wasn't American, so she wasn't really alive to begin with, but a little detail on her condition would have been nice. Instead of learning what Chevy thinks a family should look like.

It wouldn't be the Olympics without (deserved) complaints about NBC's coverage.
