    Good runs are good, but I'm just a little patriotic when it comes to Olympics 
    Goods runs just makes it all that much more competitive and fun to watch!
    Canada is kicking ass right now. Go, everybody, go!

    They would get their medal taken away for making a political statement but I was wondering if someone would?

    apparently, she doesn’t even get nervous. I think she’s just that good.

    that said, I think a better scoring system would be to average the best 2 of 3......that way, you couldn’t fall twice and then pull a great run out of your ass.

    the networks have always loved their skating but I think the continual cancellations of the alpine skiing events factored into that.

    That's what I was thinking.  Usually they just show the best of the figure skating competitors but we're getting to see practically everybody.  They've got to fill up the time.

    If she didn't have that one little slip up on her last run the judges would have given her a 10.

    Kelly Clark was robbed of a medal too.  Great run by her and to not get on the podium.  Even the commentators were miffed.
