Corrupt judging in figure skating?!? The hell you say.

and before you american posters go off on me, please try to justify how two triples including a 1620 is 5th place and grabbing on to the rail is gold medal worthy?

Jstew must still be asleep.


BRONZE!!!

I know these games in essence don't matter very much as Canada is already through to the medal round, but still a solid 5-0 win over Switzerland.

I gotta say, I'm a huge Olympics fanatic. I'll watch any event. Hell, I just watched ice dancing... the short program... in the team event

Unfortunately I won't be able to watch the women's moguls this afternoon, Canada has three sisters in the final, could be a family podium sweep!

Curling is a heck of a lot of fun to play and if you're at the event live, it's pretty good. Watching on tv is a snoozer for me though.

A good match is great on TV, a boring match will put you to sleep. I know that's true to an extent of every sport, but very much so curling.

went to the gym this morning, and the only sports choices on the elliptical TV were the ice dancing and curling. picked ice dancing (good canadian kid was up to bat, she was cute, and the rest of 'em weren't bad either - well, the British chick approaching 30 was a bit of a miss)
although I did have a hearty chuckle through my headphones when the commentator said "She was national champion for 11 years - did you know you have to do that for more than a decade?" **awkward silence from the other commentator**

The Olympic ring glitch didn't happen on Russian state television. Producers cut to footage of the rehearsal.

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

What I want to know is whether or not every country brought bottled water with them or not?
