So...no Olympics thread?

I watched Maria Sharapova pass the torch or whatever the hell it was...because I used to watch a lot of tennis and also I liked watching all the countries march out. It was more coincidental that I watched it than anything though.

 

Was there a skippyball competition? :mickey:

 

More people have been hurt or have pulled their name off the roster in this winter Olympics than ever before. Some have even left already, Said its a piss poor attempt at 'winter Olympics'.

 

Hmm...I was not aware of that.

 

I just watched Bode Miller win another medal and in the interview afterward, NBC showed what a disgrace they are. The line of questioning clearly and shamelessly intended to exploit his brothers death for an "Olympic moment." Good job on intentionally getting him to break down for your benefit, you worthless fucking assholes. Seriously. That kind of pissed me off. It was just blatant. Disgusting.

 

Ice tennis, now i think that would be rather cool to watch

 

I guess it was fox news that made that canadian bobsledder take a bath in a garbage can

 

The Orange army shined like never before.
Well done Dutch speedskaters! :2thumbsup:

 

Canada took both Golds at hockey and curling, which are the only two sports I care about.

 

Horsetralia came 24th in the medal tally, just below latvia, but above kazakhstan

Woo hoo, exciting stuff

 

highest count for any country south of the equator. very impressive....not a whole lot of countries in it that far south but still.

 

Next Winter Olympics, Latvia are going DOWN!, they can feel what 24th feels like


First step in the strategy is to work out where the hell Latvia is, I'll bet its one of those made up countries


As for south of the equator, not like we have a whole lot of competition

 

Ofcourse, people only care about sports where they have a chance of winning.
For me, those two sports (curling a sport? lol) are uninteresting.

 

Curling is actually quite fascinating. Not really because of the athletic efforts but for instance because of the question why it exists in the first place

 

I thought you meant it is fascinating because of the Russian team.

 

Maybe.

More likely they're the two winter sports I regularly play. Curling less so now, but I always enjoy a good bonspiel.

 

Curling is fascinating for many reasons.

 

The TV ratings for last night’s closing ceremony were very poor; apparently everyone was watching The Walking Dead on AMC, rather than watch The Walking Wounded for the sheer number of injuries during this olympiad :2thumbsup:


Hotwater

 

Wow, thats actually pretty scary, talk about well practised bitch face.

If you ever want to get raped with a hockey stick by four russian women, if you are into that kind of thing, follow them on twitter and arrange a meet


Especially the one third from the left, I'd hate to be her little brother

 

Yeah, cos The Walking dead is friggin awesome
