the canadian women's curling team has a 43 yr old super MILF on it

Damn. That Canadian goalie girl is getting in front of everything.

FAX

I admit I laughed uproariously when I heard the words women's hockey. But this final USA v. Canada has been pretty damn exciting.

If you get excited by watching our hockey chicks get their asses kicked.

Their goalie girl is a robot or something. We haven't even threatened to score.

FAX

We're out of position so we can't transition out of defense, our passing is sloppy, and their goalie girl is a friggin' machine. On top of that, our hockey chicks are getting tired. Not looking good.

FAX

We're playing very undisciplined hockey, FAX.

FAX

Yep. We look sloppy and out of control compared to the Canadian chicks. Can't set up a play.

FAX

Very insightful, you sure know a lot about hockey. Do you think they'll come back?

FAX

Thanks. I don't think so. Our chicks are tired and getting more and more frustrated. Unless we score a goal very soon, we're in trouble. We need a power play.

FAX

I agree. Hopefully, one of the Canadian chicks will lose total control over her emotions and we'll get 2 or 3 minutes of 5 on 3. That would help.

FAX

Sure would.

FAX

Canucks are better today. I'd like to see best of 7.

yeah, the best of 7 would be interesting, but if they both play as they did today, it'd be a sweep.

This game was closer than the score.

Congrats to Canada. They deserve the win.

Well, crap.

We didn't look right, today. I don't know if the chicks were tired or what, but they looked undisciplined, sloppy, and weak. That dang goalie girl of theirs didn't help much, either. We were out of it after the first goal.

FAX

Funny. I didn't see it that way. We looked really outclassed to me.

FAX

yep. I, however, don't watch that much hockey (so there's a good chance I don't have any freaking idea what I'm talking aboot)

Well that was an easy win for Canada. Women's hockey, the sport, is such a letdown from the high class, intense hockey that we've been watching all this week.

I thought Canada was much better, faster, and stronger on the puck, at least in the parts I saw. There's no way I could sit through 3 periods of a women's hockey game.

I watched the entire thing. It's difficult, to be sure, and you have to use little tricks to get you through it. For example, I've discovered that, if you imagine what they would look like if they weren't wearing clothes, it's a whole lot easier. When you do that, you realize that trapping the puck betwixt the bare tittahs would make for a very effective defensive play.

FAX

would it kill the american women to show some dignity in defeat?


jesus, they can't even manage a smile for the woman presenting them a medal...they kind of look like sorority girls pissed about a speeding ticket

Holy crap....absolutely. We don't care if you cry because you lose but give credit to those that won.

I'm really glad Joannie Rochette won a medal. That has to be so hard.

After Canadian Gold, Beer and Cigars on the Ice


Women's hockey team celebration raises eyebrows at the IOC, which said it would look into the matter. Informed of the antics, the executive director of the Olympic Games said it was "not what we want to see."


<IFRAME id=ifr-frame1-300x250_336x280 border=0 frameBorder=0 width=1 scrolling=no height=1></IFRAME>

VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- The women of the Canadian hockey team politely accepted their gold medals and waved to an adoring crowd. And then the real celebration began.

More than half an hour after they beat the United States 2-0 on Thursday, the players came back from the locker room and staged a party on ice -- swigging from bottles of champagne, guzzling beer and smoking cigars.

In a sport that Canada invented, there was never an option besides gold, and with it finally in hand, the home team let loose.

Meghan Agosta and Marie-Philip Poulin posed wearing goofy grins. Rebecca Johnston actually tried to drive the ice-resurfacing machine. Haley Irwin poured champagne into the mouth of Tessa Bonhomme, gold medals swinging from both their necks.

The celebration raised eyebrows at the IOC, which said it would look into the matter. Informed of the antics by The Associated Press, Gilbert Felli, the IOC's executive director of the Olympic Games, said it was "not what we want to see."

"I don't think it's a good promotion of sport values," he said. "If they celebrate in the changing room, that's one thing, but not in public. We will investigate what happened."

Poulin, who scored both goals, doesn't turn 19 -- legal drinking age in British Columbia -- until next month. The drinking age in Alberta, where the Canadian team trains, is 18. Photos showed Poulin on the ice with a beer in her hand.

"We understand that they were asked to go back onto the playing field after the stadium had emptied to take a photo," IOC spokesman Mark Adams said. "We understand that some people may have felt that their behavior was over-exuberant."

Steve Keough, a spokesman for the Canadian Olympic Committee, said the COC had not provided the alcohol nor initiated the party.

"In terms of the actual celebration, it's not exactly something uncommon in Canada," he said.

While the committee does not condone irresponsibility, Keough said, "I think Canadians understand it's quite an emotional moment for our team. It was not our intention to go against any IOC protocols."

Not even uncommon at these Olympics. After Jon Montgomery won a gold medal for Canada in skeleton, he walked through the streets of Whistler guzzling from a pitcher of beer that he gripped with two hands.

American Scotty Lago, who won a bronze in halfpipe, voluntarily left the games after a photo surfaced of a woman kneeling below his waist to kiss the medal.

******

LOL, let them celebrate. It's their country and they won.

I agree, I was glad she got a bronze too.

And I'd also happily give her a consolation :hump: if she'd like. Nothing better than seeing a woman on the ice you can ogle and not feel like you need to be on a predator watch list. (She's 24, IIRC, compared to the usual pedophilia-like 16 or 17 they all seem to be...)

The dark-haired Swiss curling chick with the nice eyes and tongue-piercing is currently on USA.

Surprised nobody's talking about the hockey semi's. USA up 1-0 in the first.
For this evening a few of us are going to the Raptor's vs. Cav's game then out to watch Canada beat on Slovakia. Big night ahead!!!

USA up 2-0 early in the 1st...

Make that 3-0. USA on fire out of the gate...

4-0. This is ridiculous...

Bring on those silly Cannucks.

Love it :clap:

Man we look sharp, the Fins look beaten. Can't let up.

5-0. ROFL

6-0.

Wow, this is unbelievable.

knocking the dog snot outa the fins

lol, 5 goals in 6:24. That's insane.

LMAO

6-0. Unreal!

I haven't seen a bunch of pussies choke so badly since....well Wednesday night and the Russians.

time to rest some starters or does it work that way in hockey?

The Raptors/Cavs game will end 1 hour into the hockey game, I'd just skip it and watch world-class hockey. The Raptors will get killed anyway.

This isn't some group of scrubs. This is a legit team full of good NHL players they're beating the pants off of. Unbelievable. Can't get lazy though.

Rap's game will be over between 9:00 and 9:30, just in time for the big game.

I've figured it out...they're missing Aki Berg. He must have been the difference back in 2004 and 2006 when the Fins won this matchup. LMAO

My bad...I forgot it was 9:30 ET. Might as well use those tickets, then, even if the Raptors will probably get destroyed.

No way! Bosh should be back.
Although I wouldn't mind a blowout so I don't miss any of the spanking later on.

Holy shit! The US is kicking the shit out of Sweden! 6-0 right now. Let's take the gold baby!!!

You guys are allowed to beat Canada once. Once!

ROFL

Pretty sad when the speed-skating stuff on MSNBC is more gripping than the stuff on NBC. :D Hell, women's curling was more suspenseful than this hockey game...

Bosh is sitting again, they'll get killed.

Finland isn't anywhere near as good as Sweden.

Although Sweden has already been eliminated in this tournament.

Canadian favorites in long track just lost to the US....choke.

Overall, I give NBC's coverage a D-minus. Their whole approach to delivering Olympics programming is like watching an episode of "Oprah On Ice". Saccharine sweet, warm and fuzzy backgrounders interspersed with actual events with very little useful information about the sport and/or any non-American participants. Not only that, but the timing of the broadcasts has sucked, in my opinion. Some of the best events have been delivered on tape for no reason I can see. I mean, they have half a dozen channels they can use to broadcast live events.

Who's running NBC Sports now and why did they hire a first class doofus to head up the division?

FAX

Yeah, I screwed up that one. Still though, we dominated today and it was glorious.

I think we'll be hard pressed to beat them again. But it's good to know we'll have the opportunity. I can't wish you luck, but I'll definitely congratulate you should you win.

Likewise. :toast:

I'm just not a big fan of the presentation and the information presented. After a run and someone makes the leader board let us know how many others skiers, sleds, or whatever are left, have a running graphic of this at the top. During speed skating and other such events keep a running tracker of what lap they are on and how many are left rather than flashing it for 2 seconds once every time around. During the biathlon show us the awesome camera angle you have of the actual targets so we can see where and when the bullets hit rather than the weak little circles on the side of the screen.

Give me the information so I can understand the sports going on! We don't watch these sports all the time, hold our hand through this, not to mention in this day and age people expect and want as much info as possible.

I love it when the Canadian Curler Chicks scream "Hard!", "Hard!", "More!", "Hard!".

How can you not love this game?

FAX

The Canadian Curler Chicks and the Curler Chicks with the blue flag with the white cross are tied at 6 all. It says End 11, so this must be overtime, or something.

FAX

In the Gold medal match to boot. Really fast skaters in really short races on really short track coming up on NBC.

Awesome. Circle skating is one of my favorite events.

Meanwhile, they're still tied. They just said it's "sudden death", too. Dang.

FAX

It's close in the 4th.

Dang. The Canadian Curler Chicks' rock is closer to the center of the bulls-eye. But, the Blue Flag Curler Chicks have another rock. Anything can happen.

Hmmm. I think the Canadian Curler Chicks have another rock, too. Here we go ...

FAX

The Canadian Curler Chicks just heaved their rock. Smashed into the blue flag Curler Chicks' rock and now there are two really close to the center thing. Dang.

FAX

The Blue Flag Curler Chicks have one more rock. So do the Canadian Curler Chicks. Dang.

FAX

If the Blue Flag Curler Chicks can smash their rock into the Canadian Curler Chicks' rock and move their rock behind their protection rock, it's all over. Dang.

FAX

I think teh best Canada can do is play to another end.

Wow. The Blue Flag Curler Chicks smashed their rock and smashed the Canadian Curler Chicks' rock clear out of the bulls-eye. They have one more rock. They have to smash into two rocks and move them out. Dang.

FAX

Sveden vins

Missed. That's it. The Blue Flag Curler Chicks get the gold.

FAX

Dang. Four-way kiss among the Blue Flag Curler Chicks.

FAX

Enough Curling Time for Hockey. Congratulations to the USA mens Hockey. Now who we gonna play. I don't think the Slovs stand a chance.

Canada and USA on Sunday!

I'd rather play the Slovs. Anybody who can't dress well doesn't have a chance against us.

May the nappiest team win!!

FAX

I've never seen a curler choke as bad as Canada's skip did in the last two ends there. Unbelievable. Don't see Canada winning the most golds now.

**** that. I want the Canadians to taste their tears losing in their National Pastime in their homeland. USA USA USA USA

Dang. They had to replace the skating judge because of death threats against him.

He was the guy who disqualified the South Korean skater for "interference" against the Chinagirl skater person. Dang.

FAX

Don't see Ryan Miller stopping 40+ intense shots again, but who knows.

First they have to get by Slovakia anyway.

Dude. I understand the enthusiasm, but you have to think clearly. The Slovs might get their pants caught in their skates giving us a clear advantage.
