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.

Lots of Russian Jews and for a Mediterranean country, Israel has a strong winter program. Begin participating in 2010 in the Nagano Winter Games in Japan.

“You don’t know they are happening until they happen.”

Boy - ain’t that the truth! I see that comcast is very proud of their system for this year. I need to do some investigating, but sounds like you can use the voice command to find events, and they will have numerous (8??) channels devoted to the Olympics.

I used to race cross-country skiing in high school and did very well. I can also shoot okay. I can’t even imagine trying to combine the two! It isn’t the most exciting sport, but I do like to watch it.

Commentators keep talking about Nathan absolutely choking in his short program. Uno from Japan has a wide lead in first place.

Just saw a commercial for the movie sequel to “Mama Mia” starring that vile harridan Meryl Streep. I hope the movie is a spectacular bomb. BARF

I did visit the site - that’s where I was looking, specifically at the page listing the sports and dates. In past years, they’d show Opening Ceremonies at the top, and Closing at the bottom. It’s probably on the website somewhere, but the Lying Press is only going to get brief fractions of my attention.

All snarky color commentators, please weigh in

I just noticed that and I'm shocked that you'd post it. Have you no sense of decency? It should read, "All snarky commentators of color,..."

We don't talks about Colored people any more; even the CME church has changed its name. (Well there is the NAACP, but we aren't supposed to think about that.

Just d@mn, no matter how much I try not to be, I’m still a racist.

Scott Hamilton is now on to comment on another figure skating event. I was afraid his cancer had come back or something.

Korean couple... nice performance.

Not there with the top couples in terms of execution.

A hit with the home crowd though.
