Did anybody else see short track on Sunday? Ohno going from last to first in 1/2 a lap in qualifying is about as good as it gets, and then in the Finals the 2nd and 3rd place Koreans taking each other out on the last corner was great (viewed from this side of the Pacific, anyways)!

US are in the lighter blue jerseys:

I also LOVE all the documentaries and highlight films they play, like this one:

Cant wait for Bobsled and Hockey

He got lucky...I think he underestimated the competition. It looked like he was about to give up and settle for 4th just before those guys crashed.

Either way...it makes for some great TV!!!

Lindsey Jacob Ellis or whatever her name is seems to have been more worried about The custom paint job on her helmet as she DQd in the first corner hittin a gate.

If you dont remember she is one who had GOLD IN HAND and tried to do a show off move over a jump close to end of run where she crashed and got passed..last Olyms


So now shes a double DOH !

I stopped watching the Olympics sometime ago, for many years as far back as I can remember I watched with eyes wide open every event I could. Haven't watched any event since the Roy Jones fight I think it was 08 if they stopped doing the games i wouldn't miss it at all.

1st Gold ever in Womens Downhill Skiing for the USA ?

I did not know that...???

 

[BusaJim08]

If I cant ride I may as well watch TV. I don't want anyone to get hurt, but i do like a good ski crash. The women had a few good ones today where no one got hurt. Sean White is up next he should put on a good show.
