Hooray for sports that only rich people can afford to play

[velik_m]

First medal for our country! Silver in ski jumping.

[lefty]

Kevin Reynolds reminds me of Mad Magazine.

Google image him up

[velik_m]

More medals for Slovenia today! :)

[velik_m]

God our hockey commentator it terrible, at least we won our 1st winter gold yesterday...

[lefty]

lol is that Parise in the OP ?

[velik_m]

lol is that Parise in the OP ?

Yes. :lol

Today we get stomped by Russians, only a few more hours

[lefty]

Yes. :lol

Hey you never know; you may surprise them; plus you have the GOAT Kopitar

Now, is Price going to get lit up vs Norway? :lol

[mudyez]

Its funny how every country counts medals different:

- in the USA its overall medals > gold > silver > bronze
- in Germany they tend to do gold=3; silver=2; bronze=1
- or they go with gold > silver > bronze

IMHO the US system is the worst!

[velik_m]

Carter flourishing when moved away from Crosby...

[mudyez]

I think 3,2,1 point system is best. More weight on higher medal, but still gives meaning to all medals.

I agree...

Right now Canada (4gold, 5silver, 2bronze) is ahead of Germany (7gold, 2silver, 1bronze)...3 gold instead of silver is worth less than one bronze?

And no, its not that I'm a Germany homer (I'd actuall like Canada to win the medal race), but it shows the stupidity of the system used by most US-sources.

[lefty]

Well according to official standings Germany is 1st.

I live in Canada and that's the standings they show.
They go by Gold medals

[velik_m]

Oh, hell yeah. first olympic win for out hockey team :king

[ace3g]

USA just beat Russia in a shootout

[rascal]

Agree

To count a Bronze as equivalent to a Gold is stupid.

[lefty]

USA just beat Russia in a shootout

That game shouldnt have gone to OT, Russians had a good goal disallowed

That being said, USA is the only team not named Canada that can compete for the Gold

I had Sweden to be the only other contender, but after Henrik Sedin and Zetterberg went down, I've changed my mind



Canada has the edge because their blue line is head and shoulders above everybody else ........ I mean , PK Subban, the defending Norris Trophy winner, and still one of the best D-Men in the NHL this season, is a 7th defenceman on Team Canada

[td4mvp2k]

:lol

[velik_m]

Of Canada's 11 goals in this tournament, 7 have been scored by Kings. Yet somehow the Kings have the worst offense in NHL :bang

Dude you can't compare the NHL and the olympics

different leagues, rules, opponents and ice surface

[rascal]

Way too much ice skating coverage. Do they have ice dancing on every night?

[velik_m]

Another gold for us today + hockey team got into quarter-finals, where we play Sweden :lol. We have no chance, if we beat Sweden i'm changing my avatar :spin

[lefty]

I started watching the Olympics when Hockey started tbh


Kimmel said it best yesterday : " if it wasn't the Olympics, would we be watching those sports?" :lol

[Girasuck]

If it were NHL rules then you'd be right. It was the right call.

[velik_m]

Also lol Russia

[baseline bum]

So this morning I put on NBC's morning show and they blabbed that Ligety won the gold in slalom. Of course none of the other networks have any obligation to not throw out spoilers, but why would NBC tell you in advance when they're showing that specific event in primetime later on? Guess I don't need to watch their coverage tonight, since sports are boring as hell when you already know the outcome.

[lefty]

Quitters. They didn't deserve to win the Gold.

[Technique]

I'm rewatching the medal rounds in female figure skating. Those tight asian cuties is what I'm missing in my life!

That gives me an idea to go to seoul this summer. I would be walking the streets with my dick hard the whole time.

That 17 year-old Russian bitch who won the gold is way better tbh.

[Technique]

Normally I would agree. But I probably had more Russian pussy than Putin.

(I was born in the CCCP)

On a side note, I would go balls deep in that 15 year old. She is well beyond her years.

[lefty]

I hate curling but damn


The women Russiean team :D
