Man, USA got skunked again Curling is cool but it would be nice to win once in a while.

 

[criesofthepast]

These Russian curlers...

Nuff said.

Nah you could have said more...

[Dr.Acula]

Yard sale!

 

[demolitio]

Nah you could have said more...

Is it possible for you to say more on this subject?

Seriously though, they're reminding me of Bond movies and the Western stereotype of ALL Russian girls being drop-dead gorgeous even though we know that's not true.

It's a shame the U.S. blew this game though. Time to find another match to watch to go along with the Slopestyle on another monitor.

 

[Kazerei]

Another yard sale, ouch!

 

[Dr.Acula]

That Russian gal who fell down <3

(This is not a repeat)

 

[BigJonsson]

Ouch again

 

[Oersted]

Man, that must suck.

 

[Kazerei]

Wow, shit, the favorite is out.

 

[Dr.Acula]

Ouch again

Yeah, she's just injured, she wasn't skiing half as well as the other Canadians and Americans, clearly her knee is bothering her. She didn't really have a shot at the podium judging from her runs.

 

[freshair]

gg Russia.

We need a new skip, usa

 

[Socreges]

Are you guys watching live stuff right now?

Canadians, any life stuff on national channels right now?

Just heard about this Victor Ahn guy for the first time. So strange that Russia recruited him, made him a citizen, all in order to have him train with them and get medals. Kinda defeats the purpose if you can just recruit great athletes, but if the guy has such broken ties with his country and it works with both parties.... alright.

 

[mileS]

didn't catch this live on the men's moguls but LOL at the mr unibrow. dude has a wicked run, and hes not impressed at all. http://olympics.cbc.ca/videos/canad...deau-defends-gold-men-moguls-final-40056.html

 

[Paganmoon]

Geez, you guys are talking about freestyle skiing? Kept thinking you were making some kind of Harry Potter reference...

 

[Dr.Acula]

Nothing for the next 40 minutes:

[DarkFlow]

Well I just watch bob drink some vodka and say his eyes can't get any redder lol.

 

[Peru]

So Canada's going to take another jumping on skis-gold now?

 

[The Last Emperor]

So Canada's going to take another jumping on skis-gold now?

Canada sweep, I'm calling it

 

[nny]

"First place!"

"She started first...don't get too excited"

Haha.

 

[The Last Emperor]

Damn, wipeouts everywhere

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Damn, wipeouts everywhere

"really?"

"no way. no way"

funny ladies. Normally you can't hear the athletes this well unless it's curling.

 

[Oersted]

Ouch. But friggin 16 years. Friggin 16 years.

 

[Brashnir]

gg Russia.

We need a new skip, usa

The back half of our rink has the double-whammy combination of being unable to deal with adversity, while also creating adversity for themselves.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Ouch. But friggin 16 years. Friggin 16 years.

she'll be feeling that about 20 years from now

 

[Paganmoon]

Damn, the UK girl had some nice moves before she fell. (Slopestyle finals)

 

[BravestOrphan]

Going to have to be some big tricks in run #2

 

[Oersted]

Damn, the UK girl had some nice moves before she fell. (Slopestyle finals)

Way too many falling.But nice Truckdriver.

 

[Deraldin]

There have been a lot of crashes on the women's slopestyle so far.

 

[2Crisis]

Great run by Dara.

That combined with all the crashes means these girls are gonna go all out in round 2.

 

[The Last Emperor]

Gold for Canada!!!!!

Book it

 

[RC]

Dara killed it!

 

[Kazerei]

That has to be gold! Hope the other two Canadians can pull it together in their second runs.

 

[BravestOrphan]

Nice!!

 

[Deraldin]

Holy crap! 94.20!

 

[gift of 100 gab]

Oh shit, that was an amazing run. Wow.

 

[Oersted]

Great run by Dara.

That combined with all the crashes means these girls are gonna go all out in round 2.

I hope noone gets hurt. Could end nasty.

 

[Oersted]

What a way to go out.

 

[Dr.Acula]

This course looks really shitty.

 

[Paganmoon]

Lost her ski, but atleast she didn't crash, extra points for that?

 

[2Crisis]

fix your audio mix bbc, wtf

 

[The Last Emperor]

Party time

 

[BravestOrphan]

Looks like snow conditions are playing a pretty big part. Some of the landing off the rails are in holes now.

 

[Oersted]

This course looks really shitty.

Snow has become too soft. They have problems to gain speed because of this.

 

[Dr.Acula]

 

[Paganmoon]

parts of the slope is starting to become more fitting for mogul skiing...

 

[Deraldin]

Sounds like they need to stay off that cannon rail. Looks like they're losing speed on the landings in the mush on the landing spot.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

ugh, I feel bad for all these chicks who are wiping out.

 

[Deraldin]

She rotated too much on that landing.

Course is terrible right now. Half the skiers are falling cause they can't keep enough speed to make it over the jumps.

 

[Red_Man]

I have to admit, the CBC webcast is pretty brilliant. Great layout, and plenty of information.
