[quote=BleedBurgundy;664587]Honestly, it's hard for me to understand any sport with "judges." Just doesn't compute for me. Give me something I can measure (not you, Johnny Weir). I want definitive winning and losing, not "oh, that pirrouette wasn't sassy enough, you get a 2.5."[/quote]

Just about all winter sports are judged.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

This will be weird rooting against Ovie

some chick called into the fan the other day saying she was rooting for Russia because of Ovie.. umm...

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Yeah, have to root against him for a day. But, it will be great to see him beat Crosby when they face each other.

I want Canada to lose no matter who they're playing...their fans/residents are way too pompous and acting like they're entitled to the Gold just for showing up. Even after we beat them soundly, they're all saying "that game didn't matter, we're winning the Gold anyways".

Canada is my new Ohio State/Boston Red Sox/Dallas Cowboys/New England Patriots/Kobe Bryant fan.

jagr's smart enough to know not to skate in open ice with your head down watching the puck.

haha yeah

so many times I've heard "we dominated the whole game with shots blah blah they just got hot in the net"

regardless, only beat SUI in shootouts and lost to us despite twice the shots

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Goal usa!!!

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Some close shots from switzerland

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

open net goal with 11 secs left

2-0 victory!

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Way to go USA hockey team! Lets get that GOLD!

Well, they're ripping Russia to shreds right now. And Ovie just got hurt. Tried to catch a puck with the palm of his hand.

android has spell check, but the tapatalk text entry doesnt seem to use the native support. not sure why not.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

It's really been about the netminders. Miller has been awesome for the USA. Kiprusoff was awesome tonight against the Czechs. Brodeur slacked and we beat Canada. Nabokov was really porous tonight and Russia fell. Hiller stopped 42 for the Swiss today. Luongo was very good today against that absurd Russian offense (Ovi, Semin, Datsyuk, Malkin, Kovalchuck, oh my!!). And don't forget Lundqvist for the Swedes.

It's gonna be tough to take down Kiprusoff.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Yeah I missed the Canada-Russia matchup, hadn't even heard that Ovie got hurt. Any x-ray reports or anything?

[quote=tryfuhl;665992]Yeah I missed the Canada-Russia matchup, hadn't even heard that Ovie got hurt. Any x-ray reports or anything?[/quote]

He came back in and played after the injury. The camera showed him flexing his hand and he looked fine. He even shook hands after the game with that same hand. So I'm assuming it's just a knick and nothing to worry about.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Ahh, well that's good. Agreed that it's been about the goalies, it's wild seeing some of the shots on goal vs ending goal results, teams getting half of the shots of winning, etc

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Way to choke, Russia.

Onto Finland for the USA, then likely Canada again.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Wow, I can't believe Sweden lost to Slovakia!

USA women vs Canada for the Gold just came on

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

[quote=ArtMonkDrillz;666231]You bastard.[/quote]

HA, perfect response.

Would be GREAT to beat Canada for Gold in both men's and women's hockey. They'll be puking up their bagged milk all over the place.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

well unfortunately the USA women lost 2-0

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Rachael Flatt just had a hell of a performance in the women's free skate. Girl is only 17.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

got a little nailed on judging unfortunately

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

I'm at work so I can't watch the game but ESPN.com must be broken because it says the score is 6-0 USA with 6:48 left to play in the first. That's a freaking football score!

we've been tearing it up man

you should load up a web stream

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Are the Olympic broadcasts so exclusive that ESPN really can't get a video highlight? Their version of Olympic coverage is the Getty Image bank. It's annoying.

Anyway, I watched every bit of the 1st period of the hockey game today, and then I had other obligations to attend to. Good thing that was the best period of the game. What a sick shooting gallery that was! I admit it, I was the guy who last night said Mika Kiprusoff was going to be hard to beat. Silly me. USA!

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

I was wondering the same thing about ESPN's coverage. Maybe Smoot can share some insight.

I really expected the U.S. to keep it going with the goals.. I mean 6 goals in 13 shots in 13 mins.. I know that they changed goalies but that was after the 4th

really hope that we can stick it to Canada.. we need yet another amazing game from Miller and hopefully a stronger showing from our O and D leads.. we scored an amazing amount of goals with only a small amount of shots.. and gave up too many shots.. plus it's almost guaranteed that Luongo will be the goalie for CAD this time

I bet it was Crosby calling in a sad attempt to pump his team up.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

We know they're great athletes, and apparently there is no shortage of sex either. I've heard those Olympic villages are pretty crazy.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
 

Yeah been a lot of talk about that over the years. Not too surprising.. hell back in HS during the wrestling state tourneys other school cheerleaders would be all over us and vice versa, so for elite athletes needing to relax and have some fun, I can imagine a lot of crazy shit goes on. I read an interview from a chick who even pretty much alluded to the fact that she boinks throughout the time spent there.

the crazy part in that link is that they point out that's about 14 condoms per person... and you know not everyone is using all of that

all of our favorite snow bunnies are getting railed to wits end
