French guy wasn't as good as Bilodeau, our commentatory showed he didn't grab his skis on one of the jumps which is a deduction.

I hate Dale Begg-Smith, he is from the city where the event was held but left Canada because he wanted to develop his spyware/spam internet business and our Freestyle ski federation told him no. So he went to Australia.

It is funny how Ohno always seems to benefit from others falling. He is really the only American athlete at these games I hate.

Not good to hate, Ohno is one of the worlds best in short track speed skating, when you win as many medals as he has it is more than just luck.
 
After 1 weekend the Metal count stands at

1 USA with 6
2 Germany with 4
3 France with 3

Go USA!!!!!

all I kept hearing was how air didn't count that much and he was fastest, just seemed strange to me. Has any other host country not won a gold or is this just a Canada thing?

It might just have been Canada, not sure. We probably did "win" Gold in 1976in Montreal but for the superhuman East German steroid female swimmers.

We lost our one chance at Gold in 1988 when Boitano beat Orser in men's figure skating.
 
Norwegians skiers are getting abused in the media here now worse then i've ever seen. Cross country skiing is serious business here and failing to even get in the top 20 on the 15km = ****storm

That's the nature of the sport. Ohno has also fallen before and had penalties take away medals. Not sure why you'd hate him.

I bet... isn't XCountry skiing pretty much the national sport over there?

pretty much, they not winning would be the equivalent of the US losing a relay in swimming in the Olympics or Canada losing at hockey
 
They really watered it down when they added all those bogus "X-game" events.

The chances of you losing at Hockey tonight are pretty slim. It's basically a NHL all star team vs a couple a Sweden pros and a bunch of amateurs.

I didn't even know we had qualified until last night, then i saw the group we where in... :eek::banghead:

I was at the US game today, your team looks pretty bad.

It was funny, the crowd was split between US and Switzerland. Americans cheered for US obviously, the rest of us cheered for Switzerland.

You kept it close for one period. When my wife found out your goalie was a carpenter by day and it was 0-0 after one, she said this is disgusting, we aren't beating a bunch of carpenters. She still said after we got it up to 8-0, we still should have beaten the carpenters by 15 ;)

I'm off to Finland-Belarus tomorrow then Canada-Switzerland on Thursday.

"Canadian Cowboys" = SUCK!

:lmao2:@ 17th and a DNF

why not mention how our mogul guy handed yours his *** and how our snow cross girl won the Gold and there was no American in the final? Of course you won't mention them because you cannot crap on Canada in those events. You have 8 medals, we have 5. We are pretty much where we expected to be after four days of competition. Our better events are in the second week.

We weren't expected to win a downhill, that is a European event pure and simple.
