While I was watching that my wife asked “are you crying?” I showed her and she just said “ooohh” while trying to hold in a laugh. When the guy said the “boys took a beating” line we both lost it

I’m guessing they are not wearing protection for that…😂🫣

Guys - would you rather break your leg ala Vonn, or crotch a pole at 90 miles an hour while wearing tights? 🤔

 

Unrelated olympic thought; I wonder if athletes can decline having a drone buzzing behind or around them during an event? I would think the noise and potential visual could be a distraction.

They were showing some old footage of Eddie the eagle in the jumping and as great as that is and was, wow compared to the distance and speed they get now on just the normal hill is crazy!

I noticed when they do the skiing freestyle when they’re skiing backwards a lot I didn’t see drones for obvious reasons but I haven’t heard anything what the athletes think. For the other events I’d almost assume they can’t hear it with their own noise but still. Sounds like it’s here to stay until there’s that one accident with one that ends it all.

Google “Shaun White lawsuit” and tell me if you still think he’s a legend.

It’s just a simple reference to his accomplishments on the board, nothing more than that.

He is a five-time Olympian and a three-time Olympic gold medalist in half-pipe snowboarding. He holds the world record for the most X Games gold medals and most Olympic gold medals by a snowboarder.

Why does US Women play a third place Italy in quarterfinals and not a fourth place team in hockey?

As noted not everyone makes the knockout round. The top five world rated countries were in Group “A” so all five make the quarterfinals. The second five were Group “B” so only the top three move on.

Feb. 13 at 9:40 a.m. CT - Czechia (A3) v Sweden (B1)
Feb. 13 at 2:10 p.m CT - USA (A1) v Italy (B3)

Feb. 14 at 9:40 a.m. CT - Canada (A2) v Germany (B2)
Feb. 14 at 2:10 p.m. CT - Finland (A4) v Switzerland (A5)

@gopher6 Brock Nelson deserves the next goal, they’re calling tender interference pretty tight. Boldy saves a half empty net goal.

I tuned in late.  Why were the first two challenged and overturned?

The 2nd was goalie interference (our favorite!) and I think the first was too though I missed it.

the 1st goal not allowed was due to crossing the blue line before the puck

Latvia played a physical game and it took the US half of a period to get into a rhythm.  There was some uncharacteristic sloppiness they had to work through, but it was obvious throughout which team was better.

On the 2nd goal overturned for goalie interference there wasn’t much but international rules are can’t be in the paint at all? That’s what I got out of it.

Extra curricular activity after the whistles punches thrown, Italy totally out classed and clearly frustrated. Heise got boarded, no call so that’s why shit gets out of hand.

Italy won't win, but they seem dead set on getting their shots in.  No surprise Murphy was in the middle of the scuffle after the goal.

Matt Weston from Great Britain takes the gold in men’s skeleton first time for Great Britain and he was thinking retirement at one time. Just nice to see that and Germany getting the other two medals behind him for a change. He just got better with each run to win it.

Unless I’m seeing things that Denmark player who took one in the skate went to the bench and the trainer handed him a bottle of Coke. 😂

He primarily played because of the back to back games, they probably go back to Hellebuyck tomorrow.
