workingcinderellaman Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Shawn White walks away without a medal. :( I was sad... not just for him, but for everyone. That halfpipe was a disgrace. All bumpy and slushy.... you look at the X games, and how much higher each jump was. That slush they were sledding thru really slowed them down. I was happy for the guy that one, he put down some great stunts... he lost a lot of points with me for calling his trick the "YOLO flip" I saw the women halfpipe contest yesterday, and when most of them crashed the same place I got to be very irritated. Of course it's the same for every contestant, but I'd rather she them snowboard on a good halfpipe, so they have the chance of showing their tricks. Kaitlyn Farrington and Torah Bright are both locals. It was really fun to watch them take gold and silver. I think Torah Bright is a cutie. The snow it horrible in Sochi. It looks like they're using snow cone ice. But, you can wear shorts around the olympic village. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisibleairwaves Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) 3-1 Canada final score. Pretty dominant after the slightly shaky start. Might've been more lopsided on the scoreboard but the Norwegians spent pretty much the entire second half of the game with all 6 skaters in the crease. Since goal differential matters in this tournament, they obviously wanted to prevent a blowout at all costs in a game they had no real chance of winning... edit: and I kinda thought Price looked a bit shaky on the very few times he was tested, but that might not really mean anything.

Blue J Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 A tie for gold in women's downhill...to the hundredth of a second. That is amazing! I watched that last night, and it was so exciting! First-ever dual gold medal in the downhill, I think, and the first-ever gold medal in Winter Olympic history for Slovenia. Fantastic! Both skiers were so happy, and happy for each other. It was really nice to see. I also really enjoyed the pairs figure skating that was on after that. Russian teams took both the gold and silver in that event. They were incredible!

But that's alright, I still enjoyed it. I really enjoyed the clown show.http://www.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/2014113/rs_1024x759-140213074655-1024.Henrik-Harlaut-Skiing-Blue-Pants.jl.021314.jpgI believe that Swedish skier Henrik Harlaut would not have crashed had he been wearing clothes that fit. At any rate, he was entertaining to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
