Just an FYI... I went onto the NBC site and they have banner results without spoiler alerts........... I accidently saw the Jacobellis results a couple hours ago........ be careful...
AAA! My friend just called and told me someone cancelled and now they have an extra ticket to the Finland- Belarus men's olympic hockey game tomorrow and it's mine!! I'm so excited!! I don't even have to pay for it! It's most exciting since I'm half Finnish! What LUCK!!
Luge doubles! Think of it: two guys (actually, women can participate too, but rarely do and never have in the Olympics) in skin-tight suits and one lies down on top of the other! ::dirty mind:: Wouldn't you just love to know what they're thinking as they rocket down the course @ 80+ mph ??
Fashion: What team outfits do you like the best? I like the Japanese speedskaters in shiny gold and black
>Lindsey Vonn leads after the downhill part of the supercombined, but somebody could give her a run for her medal in the slalom<
HIJACK: When did they start calling it "supercombined"? Even the current edition of David Wallechinsky's Olympic reference book still calls it "Alpine combined" END HIJACK
ETA later afternoon (again spoilerized):
>Maria Reisch of Germany gold, Julia Mancuso silver. Lindsey Vonn didn't finish the slalom<
Is anyone else getting annoying with all the sore losers? I really feel like giving them all some cheese to go with their whine.
I don't know about *all* the sore losers, but Plushenko, I'm lookin' at you! Did you see how he went up on the top step of the podium first?
Ice dancing: Is that tight bun all the women were wearing for their compulsory dance the mandatory "tango style"? Even Tanith Belbin wore her hair tight and she's a real fox when she wears her hair big! Would the sky have fallen if one girl had gone out on the ice with a Dorothy Hamill haircut? Also didn't Belbin look like she was in dire danger of imminent wardrobe malfunction?
Did anyone read the article about South Korea's hate for Apolo? They really really hate him!! Someone said they wanted to see him fall while some ice skater does a triple axel on his face!!!! Apolo couldnt even go to South Korea to compete because there was death threats against him!!! And when he won silver the other day, the winner was so irate he couldnt even stand to be on the podium with him. He said something about how Apolo didnt deserve to be up there with him!!! And all this goes back to the 2002 Olympics, when a South Korean wad disqualified and Apolo won the gold. Can you believe that? Plus..they think he pushed one of the 2 Koreans that fell the other day just so he could win the silver!!!! That whole article ruined speed skating for me. I'm not even gonna watch it tonight.

Ok, I'd say that's a plenty sore loser
Halfpipe: Did anybody notice the PA system playing Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA"? Psst guys, this party is in Canada!
