2010 Vancouver Olympics

[SolarTiger]

I hate Crosby as well...but for these 2 weeks...I have no choice...

Yeah same here.

Roberto Luongo starts in goal against Norway and Martin Brodeur will face Switzerland in game two on Thursday.

Canada should win those two games easily I think...it will be nice to cheer for a team that actually has a chance to win something, I'm gonna enjoy these two weeks away from watching oilers hockey.

Jeremy chokes again.

 

[Ziggyman]

I feel the exact same way Tiger...a break from Leafs action is great!

...At least you have a 1st round pick this year...

How sappy has NBC's Olympic coverage been so far?

John Ourand of SBD explores NBC's decision to air and then to stop airing the luge video.

USA Today's Michael Hiestand says NBC is on a very wild ride early on in the Olympics.

Chris Zelkovich of the Toronto Star shares his thoughts on Canada's Olympic Broadcasting Consortium's performance through 3 days of competition.

Chris talks about how CTV handled Alexandre Bilodeau's historic gold medal for Canada.

But Chris feels the Consortium is cheating viewers.

William Houston at Truth & Rumours feels CTV got the job done on Sunday.

Man, Vancouver is getting screwed with this weather...no speed skating tonight is crappy.

Had nothing to do with the weather, all of the ice resurfacing machines broke down.

I don't know - I haven't been able to see much in between the pimping of that Viking animated movie.

 

[BlackLantern]

The "McNuggets are the food of champions" commercial is hilarious

It cracks me up because there's a cameo by JR Celski in there. Or at least he was the only guy I recognized.

Very pleased with the pairs result last night! I soooo wanted the Chinese pairs to do well and win this. There were rumblings that the Russians would take it all (shudder) but I'm so mean, I'm glad they didn't even medal. about the Germans too, they're a gorgeous pair as well but glad at least they medaled.

Thank you for that by the way.

Love, the Boston Bruins.

PS- at this rate we may have 2 lottery picks that we can see walk in 3 years.

Should we consider curling as a sport if even a 5-months-pregnant woman can do it?

 

[BlackLantern]

well there was a Russian figure skater a while back who skated when pregnant

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

alright so nbcolympics.com has chosen not to stream the US/Swiss hockey game but are instead showing curling???

EDIT: NVM now they're showing it. 8 minutes into the 1st period of course

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

1-0 USA end of the 1st. South Jersey boy, Bobby Ryan with the only goal of the period
