And another gold for Canada, awesome!

 

[firehawk12]

Wow. Canada got two medals in ski cross as well??

 

[IcyBlueStrawberry]

I switched to the Biathalon... the Canadian skier in 4th (now 5th?) is a terrible marksman.

She was in 2nd going into the first round of shooting, but she went too hard and it cost her in the end.

 

[Silexx]

Hot Damn! @ Jacobs' wife.

 

[gabbo]

Hot Damn! @ Jacobs' wife.

First you get the biceps, den you get the womens. Den you get the gold

 

[MrCunningham]

She was in 2nd going into the first round of shooting, but she went too hard and it cost her in the end.

Yeah, I noticed how she caught up to the person in third place rather swiftly, but just lost it in the second round of shooting.

 

[BigJonsson]

Canada has been pwning the last 2 days

 

[Pedrito]

I was thinking that this group of canadian biathletes looks promising, both the men and the women, then I looked at their age...Oh well. Decent results the last two weeks. Way better than the cross-country skiers at least.

That's always connected. She went all-in against some of the fastest batheletes and lost.

 

[Stet]

That was our Vancouver strategy too. Slow burn until the end when all our long-term medals come in.

 

[gabbo]

That's nothing to be ashamed of.

 

[mnz]

That's nothing to be ashamed of.

Of course not! That was her only chance to win a medal.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Ahhh yeah!

 

[zroid]

man sweeping gold in the team sports tournaments would be incredible. don't think our men's hockey team will pull it off though. US too stronk.

All the score breakdowns are here: -

Mouse over and you can see the scoring at each stage

Also interesting article explaining the scoring system and how it works: -

http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Olym...ging-How-did-Adelina-Sotnikova-beat-Kim-Yu-na

You do realize, Yuna's SP's base value was higher than Adelina's so based on your thoughts about adelina's base value in FS, Yuna should have scored much higher than Adelina in SP, but Adelina almost had the same exact score.

Cmon man, lol, just admit it. this shit is funny and a joke, and obviously Russia was gifted another gold.

Have some hope

 

[naku]

There are two athletes popped today. Evi Sachenbacher-Stele and William Fullani.

 

[LNBL]

Pheww, I really thought they were going to throw Knegt out

 

[Merino]

First time watching short track in ages. Forgot what an amazing thrilling sport it is.

Hoping for more orange medals

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Bronze gave Knegt even more attitude. Great to see honest judging.

 

[Blader]

American skating really is cursed this year

edit - well, nevermind that. :lol

 

[Peru]

All those penalties. Short track maan.

Will be interesting to see how the italian bobsledders will react. The german Biathlonteam was completely broken.

 

[zroid]

The Korean's pass was soooooo dirty. I knew he'd get DQ'd immediately when it happened.

 

[Onion_Relish]

One of the nice things about this olympics has been waking up to medals. We went from 5th in medals and golds to now being second in golds and total medals. Canada don't scare.

 

[Snakeyes]

Got a bad feeling about Canada's chances in hockey today...

 

[Mission]

aaaand christie falls again, this time affecting Canada.

 

[Solo]

So we might win our second straight winter olympics?
OH, CANADA!

 

[pestul]

So we might win our second straight winter olympics?
OH, CANADA!

We'll need at least one more gold, possibly 2 depending on Norway. If we miss hockey, we still have 4-man bobsled, ST-SS and possibly snow boarding. Definitely a possibility.

 

[Peru]

Shim beast

 

[Pedrito]

So we might win our second straight winter olympics?
OH, CANADA!

Unfortunatly no.

Russia still has 7 good gold medal chances. Norway 3. Canada 1.

[perfectchaos007]

The USA continues their streak of getting at least 1 medal each day in the olympics!

 

[pestul]

Based Price.

 

[Nesotenso]

America is really having a bad time in short track and speed skating.

 

[Solo]

Cournoyer into the Mens 500 final!

 

[Peru]

Short track canadian style

 

[Onion_Relish]

Short track canadian style

We need to make up for hammelins failure

 

[Peru]

We need to make up for hammelins failure

Not by repeating his mistake

 

[2Crisis]

Well Jessica Smith is into the finals of the ladies 1000m now. Best medal chance for us all olympics.

 

[mclem]

Disastrous luck for Christie, hoping the ruling goes in her favour this time.

 

[Pedrito]

Christie really has to change her strategy. But her finishing kick is pretty amazing.

 

[mclem]

Whoa. That's terrible.

 

[Igo]

This Christie girl has been penalized in every event now, right? That's something I guess.

 

[Elvin Atombender]

That has to be some kind of record when it comes to being disqualified during the Olympics?

 

[Acorn]

Oh ffs. Fuck you referees, why do you hate Elise?

Poor girl, fucking disgusting.
