The Winter Olympics already started Today!
NBC | Feb 8 2018 | Me

Posted on 02/08/2018 5:34:09 PM PST by RooRoobird20

The opening ceremonies haven't been held, but figure skating started today!

Mr. RooRoo is semi-suicidal, he HATES figure skating.

All snarky color commentators, please weigh in!!!!

I'll throw out the first pitch: The second male skater (from Germany I believe) chose a HORRIBLE costume, he had big yucky armpit sweat stains, it was hard to focus on anything else.

I do like the biathalon, especially because it tests a skill used by soldiers fighting in snowy mountain terrain.

I’ll be interested in her endorsements, which products not to buy.

Tell your hubby to hush up, the moguls are next. A perfect viewing night.

Jonny Wier(d)....not my fave commentator.... and I HATE his hair, it’s not too long, it’s too tall.

I’m a day late. I hope I didn’t miss a lot. I’m a Winter Olympics junkie.

Johnny Weir is actually very good as a commentator. Rizzo, from Italy, is in the lead.

I’d pay to see that, too.

Use some snowboarders for targets.

You can watch the opening ceremony live at 6 am. I think you should visit nbc’s website for the schedule, they are using like 4 channels. I got a couple of their apps.

Nathan Chen is coming up, he’s supposed to do FIVE quad jumps in a row. He’s incredible, and only 18 years old.

Yawn... Who cares? I sure do not and personally do not know anyone in my family, any friends, or people working for me that care. Absolute waste of time.

They need more shooting sports like The Biathlon.

How bout combining speed skating with shooting? The possibilities are endless.

I love that SNL skit. “Blades of Glory” was very good also.
