I don't know if this has been posted yet, but if you have Shaw, you can re-watch full CTV coverage every single event and the daily reviews for free through VOD - Video on Demand.

Just a quick question for you Olympic aficionado's...... Do any of you know who the two athletes are that were on those banners hanging up at the Bay and Zellers stores? I'm not talking about the huge ones that were on the sides of the Bay downtown building. These are two feet wide by four feet long. One is of a female athlete and the other is of a guy. I picked up a set (3) from my local Zellers. They've been hanging from the ceilings of the store during the Olympics and Paralympics. Now that the games are over, they were going to throw them out, so I said I'd take a set. The third banner has the words, "We Were Made for This" and Vancouver 2010 vertically the whole length of the banner, with ski mountains in the background and the Olympic Logo and HBC Logo along the bottom. Really nice banners, btw. Very thick vinyl type material. Even comes with wooden hanging rods and weighted at the bottom. Anyway, it's a free piece of memorabilia.

I'd have to find out who they are first. LOL. I hope they're athletes and not some catalog models. I'll try to take pictures of the banners and post them up tomorrow.

Here are the banners. I had to drape them over the closet door. If any of you recognize the two people, I would appreciated it.

Yeah I agree... I didn't watch the games 24x7, but their faces just don't ring any bells. They definitely look more like clothing models than athletes.
