Beyond that, I am interested in seeing how American Television covers the games... well more so how they cover the country. You know they will dive in to the country a bit. I can't wait to see their crazy stories...

yours,

I definitely know what you're saying about how sad it is. I don't really know why either, but I'm so sad about this, I mean, it was the day of the opening ceremonies. This would have been the most amazing time of his life, he had trained all his life for it.

He was also the 12th crash on the course, and the 6th on that turn alone. I heard somebody say they were considering closing the event.

As for tonight's stuff, I'm pumped for Ohno to go for his record 6th Winter Olympic medal tonight, He's my favorite Winter athlete.

It was really poor planning on the engineers of that course.

Did you see Ohno's first heat? Holy shit he has some amazing passes Watching him go from dead last to causually just taking off from the rest of the pack in one move is breathtaking to watch. The collapse of the rest of them just kinda added to it a bit. Really happy he ended up with the silver, but at the same time the Koreans took themselves out...

That game was sloppy and ugly. Real ugly. I was not impressed in the least. They better start playing better and cleaner or else they will get crushed.

In all honesty I remembered women's hockey being much smoother... if it was always this ugly then... wow... just wow.

yours,
