lanikai Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 I'm in no way now or have ever been a winter athlete.. but the spirit of the Olympics .. the pure competition and the years of hard work is something that I really appreciate.. Canada's shoot out to win today in Hockey was awesome.. throughout these events the Canadian Fans are again and again.. first class weather cheering their country or paying tribute to other teams.. good stuff..

By-Tor Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 I have watched every single hockey game so far. This is an awesome tournament. My prediction for the final: Canada - USA. Russia has superior material but way too many big egos... and potentially a shaky goalie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanikai Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Watching the Men's figure skating competition, I am amazed at the skills.. But... Sang are the costumes they wear trying to compete with the women.. I'm not Homophobic , nor do I have much against "Metro".. but dhit Jed.. those costumes and make up on the men are going over the edge of "peacocking", I have a hard enough time looking a straight man in the face when he has waxed eyebrows Now History will show that in all cultures in Mans attempt to mimic the wild kingdom, have used makeup and the likes.. but this year in the Ice skating programs.. it seems that they went over the line with trying to outdo the Women..in elegant costumes and makeup. you go from one extreme from Hockey where the men are missing teeth and have crooked noses.. to figure skating, where the Men may "scream" if they break a finger nail.. Sorry just had to add ma .02.. I really focus on the skills they work hard at.. but "Mary" Puuuullleeeeaase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eton Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Yah, the outfits were/are a bit LOUD, I usually fall alseep watching figure skating! I quite enjoyed the Skeleton races, those guys are nuts! The Canadian with the beaver on his helmet was fantastic! Go Canada Go!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 My grandma likes figure skating. Great old lady but that tells you a lot about the sport. And I agree about those figure skater guys... bunch of make-up wearing p*ssies. PS: Norway-Switzerland was surprisingly good hockey game. Anyone watched it?

ChipSlap Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Just a random observation. Although their uniforms could be better (sluttier), there are some hotties on the women's curling teams. Anna Sidorova of Russia ...and Cheryl Bernard of Canada is pretty MILFy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 There are babes all over the Olympics.. agree I figure most of these sports are for the affluent class.. a lotta bucks from when these athletes are very young.. just a thought looking at some of the finances needed to mature in the winter programs.. Like tropical climates attract beach bunnies.. the ski slopes must be the opposite end of the spectrum with the ski bunnies.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipSlap Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I figure most of these sports are for the affluent class.. a lotta bucks from when these athletes are very young.. I've heard that that is the reason the Olympics were for amateurs only for so long. The upper-class twits didn't want to compete against the working classes. Banning professionals meant that only people who could afford not to work could compete and win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Am watching the USA Vs Canada hockey match right now. I have no idea if it is live or a delayed telecast, I just turned on the TV and there it was. The States have scored an early goal but it has been pretty tight since then. Ken Edit; now it's 2 USA 1 Canada but the Canadians seem to be doing most of the attacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 It's a tight game...US scoring 20 seconds after the CDN power play..crazy...it's live alright Ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 It's USA 3 Canada 2 in the 3rd but there is really nothing between these two teams. Play 10 times and it will probably go 5 all. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
