    He is the first person I've ever heard say figure skating is about athleticism and not show.

    Doesn't matter. Things have been downhill ever since Nagano, imo.

    I think most of it is as boring as watching paint dry but yes there is something about curling.

    I love nothing more than beating those commies. They are sore losers. Vladimir Putin is a loose cannon. I put on the same level as the wacko in Venezuela.

    Plushenko may have landed all of his jumps, but he executed them ungracefully. That is why he lost. Both of them looked like sissy dancers, but that is what the contest requires.
    Jordan Mills on choosing Tech:
    “It’s a great experience seeing them play. It was a good atmosphere. The fans stood up the whole game and never sat down. They have a great fan base.”

    He acted real miffed on the podium last night. If he wanted to win, he should have peformed better. Who cares what the Russians are saying about it? History will show the U.S. skater won gold and the Russian skater was in second place.

    Biathlon pursuit - men's and women's - requires good skiing and accurate shooting.

    Short track speed skating team racing - 4 members of 4 teams race on a track inside a hockey rink - very interesting

    Men's hockey
