Dutch Female speed skaters have got to be faster. They’re upper bodies are closer to the ice. Bigger breasts.

The boys are known for putting their fingers in dikes, but I don’t think it’s helped in the Olympics.

Maybe there’s a Freeper embedded in NBC’s research team that fed Katie that tidbit.

Can we also mock Couric for helping Lauer keep access to young women employees for years? She was powerful and rich enough to stop him. She CHOSE not to. Her being stupid isn’t a choice, but she could have protected hundreds of women. She CHOSE to protect her career instead.

I would like to hear her in the Summer Olympics making statements about why blacks are so fast. She might even say they got used to running from slave traders.

Hans Brinker, or The Silver Skates
Hans Brinker, or The Silver Skates (full title: Hans Brinker; or, the Silver Skates: A Story of Life in Holland) is a novel by American author Mary Mapes Dodge, first published in 1865. The novel takes place in the Netherlands and is a colorful fictional portrait of early 19th-century Dutch life, as well as a tale of youthful honor.

The thing is she’s probably correct.

I just watched Shaun White win the gold medal.

The announcer, after stating “This is Shaun White’s biggest run in his career”...he went silent and let the scene speak for itself.

His silence was prolonged as it took awhile for Shaun to begin his run...a ton of pressure and tension watching that.

Katie, Sometimes it’s better to just keep your mouth shut.

A sport that is part of a country's culture can contribute to that country's success in international competition.

Back when just about every swimming pool in America had a diving board, the US dominated diving events at the Olympics. But in the 2016 Olympic diving events, the US only won three medals--two silvers and a bronze--while China won 10 including seven golds. Could the disappearance of diving boards across America due to high insurance costs and the threat of lawsuits have contributed to the paucity of our performance in international diving competitions?

What a maroon!

The canals rarely freeze over in the winter. That is why the Dutch wear wooden shoes, so they can float on top of the canals and walk across them.

I think I remember Tony Horton of the P90X videos making the same mistake while bantering with one of his fitness models on the tape.

Remember how she pressed Sarah Palin about what she read for information on the world .. wouldn’t let it go even when she knew she should?

Your turn, Katie. Enjoy the mock.

Katie’s real problem is to explain why Shani Davis, who she
has been promoting as the best speed skater in the history of forever, came in 19th in the 1500.

The Dutch also make really good heavy mechanics because their their fingers are so strong from plugging dikes.
