They played it during the men's short program too, lol!!

I didn't notice, but I may not have seen all of it. Was somebody skating to it (although except in ice dancing you can't use a song with words) ?

No, it was before they announced someone's score. My friends & I were laughing about it.

Sorry for my Canadian friends but what a great game for the USA last night!

Definitely. The USA outplayed us for sure! Way to go USA :)

The commentators finally offered an explanation: a "regular" combined = downhill + 2 slalom runs; "supercombined" = downhill + 1 slalom run

Ice dancing: One move some of the teams should have avoided in their folk dances is that one where one of the members sticks her heel into the ice out to one side, as if to pivot around it, and flexes the other knee (the team that did the "Australian aboriginal" dance did that, and one other I saw but I forget who). The result looks comical, and if they were trying to keep it authentic (I realize the originals of these folk dances were not designed for ice skaters) it defeats the purpose. It reminds me of the number in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang where Dick Van Dyke and Sally Ann Howes pretend to be wind-up dolls

Luongo's in goal tomorrow. yayyyyyy

Is it confirmed? If he isn't there could be riots... haha

You and your friends must have ears like mass spectrometers, I made a point of listening to the background noises in the kiss-n-cry during the ice dancing final and couldn't hear any music. (Virtue & Moir 1, Davis & White 2 YEAH!)

I didn't hear any other music during the Ice Dancing final either. I'll be listening during the ladies short program tonight (Woohoo..excited for this one!!)


Has anyone read this? Plushenko awards himself new Olympic medal Can we say, arrogant?

sorry i missed this thread, he's playing against russia too. Unconfirmed reports that he's playing the rest of the games.

In denial much, Plushy boy? You lost. Get over yourself

ETA: What, no comments yet on the ladies' short program?? Kim and Asada: outta this world! And Joannie Rochette: to skate like that through her tears and put herself in position for a medal: Awesome!

Major high school drama from the ski slopes!! http://www.nbcolympics.com/news-feat...nhomepage&cid= Really girls..come on now.

No comment on Kim. But Joannie Rochette..omg..I was bawling after her preformance. I just wanna give her a :hug:

Okay, I am late. That's what happens when I don't come to 3FC for a few months at a time. The next few days are going to be gooood. I was in Vancouver last weekend for some games, almost want to go back this weekend. But it is going to be soooo crazy.

I have never gotten into the Olympics before now, but being there was so amazing.

Here is one of my flame pics! Sorry for the tag on it, I don't have another copy handy right now. :(
