I liked the Japanese skater the best - his passion and style were way beyond any of the others IMHO. The moves actually seemed inspired by the music and he didn't have so much dead lead-up to his jumps (that always bugs me).

So, apparently Doushenko is questioning the results.

Yeah, I really liked Takahashi - and loved the choice of Nino Rota (Felini) music, was so glad he hung on to the bronze and hope he shows up again.

OMG, you b*tch! You Slovenian bitch!

Shriek!

Wow, how cute are the Hamelin brothers, Charles and François!

Pretty damn cute!

USA Canada game was intense down to our empty net goal.

It's very odd cheering for one team and then cheering on specific players. And yelling "Get up Perry, don't be hurt!" and "return Neidermeyer to us unharmed!" when normally you'd hope a player is out the rest of the game and exhausted.

You've never played fantasy football. Is there such a thing as fantasy hockey?

What's the deal with that clear plastic "girdle" thing that some of the speed skaters are wearing over their outfits?

If you haven't seen it, it starts at the top of the belly and goes down to the mid-thigh. The area of the inner thighs & groin is not covered by this film. It's worn on the outside of the outfit and is clear & shiny. It's definitely not unique to a single country and I've seen the same country's "uniform" both with and without this "girdle".

Wha???
