Have you seen the Coca Cola commercial - the one with glimpses of medal ceremonies throughout the years - medals for Olympics, Special Olympics and Para-Olympics?
It's fantastic - tried to find it and provide a link, but so far no go.

So, If I watch the 2024 games I'll see another Hannah bouncing down the side of a mountain?;)Quote:

Charlotte Kalla won the Women's 10K Cross Country - Sweden's first gold in this event since 1968.
Men's 15K starts soon :)
Things to make the Winter Olympics more interesting.
Tacks on the ice for figure skating.
Nudity, just like in the 'old days'.
Points awarded for names like Jakov Fak. Gotta love those Croatians.
Drop the identifying athletes by their sexuality! Bi-Athletes!:rolleyes::eek::confused:
Allow the the bi-athletes to carry paint ball guns to knock the opposition's focus off.
So there are no losers, do it like we do for our kids...MEDALS FOR EVERYONE!
Allow doping in all the events, Have you ever tried skiing with a buzz on?
Allow snowboarder to do a "whole pipe", that way they can get 'higher' during the event.
During the women's hockey tournament, allow any teams to pull out of the games against the U.S. and Canada when their scores hit double digits.
Watching the Women's team from Cameroon get their arses whooped 67-0 in the first period isn't sport.
Let Team USA and Canada play for the Gold before the opening ceremony, that way the speculation ends right then.
Give the mascots normal names, I thought the Vancouver set were items off a sushi menu! Miga, Quatchi, Sumi?
If the US has not won medals in any sport for more than 20 years, we should not compete in them. When it takes 50 years to win medal in Short Track Bobsled Downhill Pairs Curling, let's just face it, We suck at it and should not be allowed to participate.
Get rid of the sno-boarding-or at least change the name to sno-boring?
Run the biathalon next to the half pipe and let them shoot at the sno-boarders as they jump in the air.
Speed skating over vegetables! Who wins is the country who makes the most salad, then serves it to the homeless.
Curling for beer! Check it out. Put a case on the ice, then play, By the the teams finish, it's cold and no one will give a crap about the score.
Medals for everyone!!!!
Any distance event should be 24k automatically, make them work for the gold.:eek:;)
Jakov Fak, bronze medalist. Rolls off the tongue, eh?
I support these options :love:Quote:

But at the exact same time, over on CNBC, the Non-Sporting group is on. I love the dogs in the Non-Sporting group!
What you need is DirecTV DoublePlay - I can switch back and forth between two channels and see everything that happens. We are able to go back and forth and not miss a minute of either event.Quote:

Pairs Figure Skating - Wonderful results :)
And NOW several skiing events have been postponed due to heavy snowfall! :p
The snow is too soft at the bottom of the runs...but they'll get the grooming machines out.
"Heavy Snowfall" - magic words to all skiiers and organizers there!
