Has anyone noticed Al Micheals face?
Geez, what a scary facelift that is!

I was reading that Tanith Belbin ended up sharing her Oly village room with John Weir because he was afraid of death threats due to his wearing fur....
TB joked about him taking the room with the tub/shower attached to it.
What an annoying jerk this guy is. "I'm getting death threats and I'm scared!"

NBC coverage is driving me bonkers this afternoon. Some luge, and then some cross-country skiing, and now lots of commercials. I just got into the luge and they switched to the skiing. Oh, well.
The weather is so strange! It's snowing down in Atlanta, but up in Vancouver they are talking about postponing some events due to lack of snow! :confused:
Yea, they've been trucking snow in for weeks now. They can have ours too. It's snowing here again!!! :(Quote:

Spoiler Alert!!
We (West Coast) haven't seen the event yet!!!!;)
NBC has chosen to tape delay the events for us on the left coast.
All the other channels are running tickers or leading with the results during the news.
I LOVED the women's moguls last night and looking forward to the men's moguls tonight.
I know Jenn heil was the pride of Canada and was picked to win it but MAN did Hannah Kearney pull out one HECK of a run. there was no competing with that. Like she said... After Jenn's run she knew she just had to put it all out there even if it meant risking a fall. But in this case it worked out, she held it together and MAN was she AWESOME.
What's the matter with you all?
No love for Apollo?
------------
Why can't the skiers use their poles to ward off other competitors?
-----------
The Oly Comm want to combine males and females in the Biathalon.
What is the only Oly sport where women and men compete head to head?
Apollo was last night - and it was great that he tied Bonnie Blair.
Tonight is Figure Skating - and I can't talk about it as it might cause you grief. By the time you can deal with the skating I'll be in bed getting ready for tomorrow's events.
Did you see the Biathlon? That was run hours ago - surely you must have seen coverage by now? I was hoping Ole Einar Bjørndalen would win another medal, but it was not meant to be - at least not today. Maybe in the Pursuit?
Go for it. I don't do FS.:)Quote:

LOL, I have heard that the NC silver was the first medal and it's the first since 1924?????:confused:
Woo Hoo!!! We won gold in men's moguls!!
that was AWESOME. it really was. and anyone who says they don't deserve to be there because it's a judge competition... well I don't know what to say. That was incredible and is no doubt an athletic feat.Quote:

Those moguls - OMG - I could feel the pain in all my joints!!
I wonder how many of them will develop arthritis at an early age?
And Hannah was wearing a Jacoby Ellsbury T-shirt under her uniform during the Opening Ceremony - GO SOXQuote:
