This starts today even though it started yesterday.
KS loves him some Scott Hamilton. He will be glued to his every broadcast of the men's ice dancing.
I am down for some Women's Hockey. The US and Canada teams hate each other and actually get after it.
The skiing does little for me.
Shaun White has turned into a short read haired vagina and skipped the X Games (that made him) and pulled out of one of the new snowboard competitions because he is scared that he will both lose and get hurt.
Have they added snowmobiling yet? That is kinda fun to watch believe it or not.....and 99 percent of the competitors are from the GLORIOUS state of Wisconsin.

I actually like the winter olympics better than the summer.

I agree. The summer stuff interests me very little. Track is boring and I don't need to watch the NBA clown show blowout everyone.
I am a little pissed that this is not on TV right now. I don't want to watch stuff on a tape delay at night. I want to watch it when it happens if I happen to be around....like I am now!!!

The final torch bearer has to be Alexander Rusev, right?

I got to take a piss, and I hear Rocky lost? The meatball in me is incredibly uncomfortable with this entire deal. Actually, it's not the meatball in me. It's the insane use of funds. The lack of human and animal treatment. It makes me want Putin to have an "accident" in about six months.

I'm assuming this is some kind of Russian Olympian Dude Porn. I'm not quite sure how to say it for the 97th time, but I'm not interested. But, do what you have to do. Hi Don!!

God dammit...i missed the women's hockey so to go to work and now I get home and its fucking cross country skiing. Can walking a dog or jogging be entered into the summer games to give me something equally as awful to watch?

So apparently there is some big controversy over the USA Women's figure skater who made the olympic team after kinda sucking at nationals even though she was supposedly good all year before that.
What I want to know is why no one is bitching about the bobsled team girl that was booted off the team for a horribly terrible lolo jones. it wasn't like 5th place took 4ths spot it was more like 15th place took 4ths spot.

I don't really understand the Biathlon. Who cares if you miss the target and get time added to your run when you could just shoot the competition and be the last one remaining?
Anywho, I felt like I was watching one of those Die Hard movies.

Holy hell, this 15 year old is unreal. No Pink Floyd but she was significantly better than the US chick.

Yea its entertaining except for listening to whatshisface criticize everything. "Oh she missed her landing by a quarter inch. Her rotation was too slow and her drapes don't match the carpet."

I stopped watching after that 15 year old got like a 72 or whatever it was. I figured nobody would top that performance. Is that slated to be over tonight or do the figure skaters move on to a different night, if you know?
I've yet to see Hawger & Jr.
Only did myself and two neighbors tonight.

I kinda want to see Putin kick Johnny Weir's ass for dressing like a fucking 18th century woman during the live broadcasts.
