From one of the nutjobs on the site......
Quote:

If Yuna would won with mistakes - you would protect judgment. (As you protect judgemt for Yuzuru Hanryu from Japan with two fells) If Adel would be from another country - there would no scandal at all. You just hate russians, you hate that olympic in Russia, and you hate that Russia ever exist in own path. Just because propaganda from childhood. Not fair? Not fair was when judge from USA in USA-Russia sochi hockey match didnt count real goal. Not fair is when Irina Slutskaya dont won in 2002 Salt Lake City.
Is he talking about the US or Russia?

He sounds like he's Jewish............ paranoid - always thinking people don't like you for being Jewish. I have to remind my Jewish friend all the time to stop accusing people of treating him unfairly.

But everyone knows people hate Jews just for being Jewish... just ask CharlesInCharge!

Then again, Lomac is Jewish and he's normal..............I think.

I dunno about that, but he's always going on about Zionists, so at the very least he's got some kinda hard-on for Jews.

Watching the four-man bobsled heats, Canada 3 crashed hard... everyone got up and walked away, and got huge cheers from the ENTIRE crowd, and applause and hugs from the other racers. That shows you the true spirit of the Olympics and sport right there: as badly as everyone wants to win, at the end of the day, competing hard and going home safe is the most important thing.

there is some skicross controversy. The French were 1 2 and 3 and the Canadian was 4th but the French were using illegal suits so they might be disqualified.

So every on the interwebz and my facebook wall seem to believe Yuna Kim should have won Gold over Adelina Sotnikova.

I just watched watched both performances and it didn't seem like Yuna Kim blew Adelina Sotnikova out of the water at all. Adelina Sotnikova's jumps seemed like they were way more powerful and had a lot more height. But, what do I know, I have no idea how to score this event...

Ronin 02-22-2014 04:26 PM

Then you should probably read the post above. Shows the scorecards and the huge discrepancy between judges.

What's this about ski-cross?

CAN (4th) and Slovenia (5th) claiming the FRA skiers used illegal pants and should therefore be DQ'd.

Watching reruns of alpine skiing........ Canadian skiier got confused and missed completely. Stopped and didn't know where to go. A couple of athletes up top were chuckling at the noob's mistake.

Felt sorry for the noob. Pretty embarrassing, I guess.


EDIT:

Haha......... one of the athletes who was chuckling at the noob, missed and dnf himself.

Like I said in a previous post, if you are going to lawl someone, make sure you yourself don't get lawl'd.

Poetic justice.

MG1 02-22-2014 09:45 PM

bobsled and team are okay after the crash............. for sure I thought someone had broken neck. Slid so far with sled on top of them and their helmets scraping on the ice the whole time.

Looks like Kaillie Humphries and Heather Moyse will be carrying the Canadian flag for the closing ceremony.
Sochi 2014 - CBC Sports - Kaillie Humphries, Heather Moyse named Canada's flag-bearers

Speaking of which, anyone know if the closing ceremony will be streamed online through cbc?

MG1 02-22-2014 09:59 PM
