I wish there was a stream just for all the single competitor countries. I would totally cheer on the guy from Nepal or Mexico or any of the Carribean islands over watching more NBC coverage of Americans.

Curling, Skelton and Luge best winter sports.

The Soviet era was absolutely brilliant, the dove were charming, and someone should totally turn that projector system into the next Nick Arcade. Liked it, but Beijing is still the best opening.

Ugh. I hope he's ok.


Also, for those of you on bell expressvu, when CBC (English) cuts to commercial, go up to channel 1801. It's the French feed but they don't take commercial breaks. So you see the runs you miss while the English Channel is at commercial.

The Olympics is one of the few times I'm glad I'm an insomniac so I can watch all of these live.

While NBC annoys me, at least I can watch all of this on their site now.

Someone is gonna snap a board.

Emil Andre had a good bend going on the first rail.


Lots of missed landings / jumps tho.



Edit: holy hell mark mcmorris!
 
Butt touches the ground = automatic major point deductions?

Damn had it till last jump.

So hes fucked basically. That was a medal hopeful I think for Canada gone?

I guess. 55.50 seems awfully low considering the rest of that run.



They do get two runs tho. Best of the two is the score they rank with. It's not cumulative.
 
So remember in the other thread I said Chara wouldn't fit in the small bed......

Thanks to SME`s website (Slovak newspaper) we get to see what Zdeno Chara`s bed in Sochi looks like. #hilariousstuff pic.twitter.com/H2PHAfsDRw

Still another run to go, so it's not over for him. Sure does seem like those "butt checks" deduct a lot!

Oh nice I thought it was average of two. He ain't out yet then.

Is this the event Shaun White backed out of?

Edit: yes it is.

Best Impression of a James Bond Villain
Russian President Vladimir Putin presided over the games with his standard steely gaze, as though a tank full of hungry sharks were just a button's push away.
