The most pleasant surprise of this year's games to me has been the fact that a lot of the curling women are pretty good-looking. Canada, the Scandinavian countries, Russia... cute chicks abounding.

Luongo to start.

"Hey, it's the Winter Olympics. Let's waste prime time interviewing Michael Phelps, and showing Bob Costas arriving by seaplane!"

Is there a flaming antifreeze-covered AIDS tree big enough for NBC? I think not.

Ha-Ha. Hilarious. Its Pelle Lindbergh's Porsche after his '85 fatal accident. He had it up to 565 horse. left a bar drunk 530 am. Put it into the retaining wall and stairs of a nearby school at about 80 mpg. no seatbelt. brain dead. turn the machines off, ba-bye.

What a sad waste.

Of a Porsche.

If all you watched were NBC's primetime coverage, you would think that the only sport in the winter olympics was figure skating.

Simple. It's a sport chicks dig, so they figure it'll command better ratings.

Also, since they prefer prime-time to be live stuff, that automatically means indoor shit like ice skating, hockey, and speed skating.

This one's kinda scary, but the British chick in the white outfit who was on a little while ago had killer thighs...

This American girl skating now, I feel bad for her. I try not to be shallow about looks, but... she would be SO pretty, if it weren't for the fact that she's got eyes like the Budweiser lizard. :shake: They need to be about one inch more towards her nose.

(did you note the foreigner song references? heh)

yeah--there's some damned good...'talent'...in curling... :p

Judging by this crowd's cheering, I smell some "home cooking" coming up for this Canadian dance pair.... Might as well put their name on the Gold now.

not to admit to having watched ice dancing (flipping channels, saw most of both 'runs' or whatever you call them), I didn't see the canuck's dancing as three points higher than the american team's dancing. home cooking? at this point, who cares.

We'll just have to kick their ass in hockey to make up for it. :D

Besides, we have to keep an eye on those damn Krauts, they're sneaking up in the overall medal count and are only a few behind now...

Also a lot of opportunities for commercial breaks.

Supposedly Canada is going to win gold in the ice dance....

I can't tell the difference between any of them, and I'm not sure how anybody else can.

heh, indeed. freaking jermaine's halved the gap today before this evening's events (was six before start of events today, was three last I checked this afternoon)
