Harsh penalty on Harlaut's one miss, but worthy top 3.

edit: Harlaut agreed his scores were low : "I did two tricks no one else can do. If someone else had that run it would be top 3".

I feel for François Hamelin (the guy who fell). He was interviewed minutes ago on SRC and he's devastated. It was a stupid mistake too.

Right, here's a decent medal shot for us in the UK. Getting two medals in a winter olympics would be a big deal... but we'll see, still a long way to go. Well, half a kilometre, maybe!
 
Really great Slopestyle event today but I feel that the judging and voting system needs an overhaul. Voting together in a room combined with averaging the results just seems a tad too intransparent for me.

Apparently in 2008 George Bush visited Russia and took this picture with Putin in Sochi.

I don't know why, but I find this picture hilarious.

What the hell happened? I go to sleep with the US at like 7-8 medals, wake up and they're at 13!

And no more for Canada yet :(

Oh man, and the men fucked up the 5000m :( That was a gimme medal too. Damn, bad start to the day. This could quite possibly be our first day without a medal.

happened to chance upon the charlie white and meryl davis story, and have been watching their routines on youtube the whole day. would have guessed that they would be a couple outside of competition as well considering how long they have been skating together

While I haven't been paying too much attention to this Olympics; but I just saw that video of short track. So everyone fell and gave an easy gold to China? Ahahahhahahahahahhahaha

The biathlon event coming up now is for the hardcore. 20km cc, four shooting rounds, and the catch: Every miss is a minute added to your time.

Man, after the Mens 1000m came down to hundredths of seconds......the womens 1000m leader so far has a 1.60 second lead on second place :lol

Well the second half of skaters are the best ones, which is why this time is shocking. I'm sure some will come close at the very least.
