Need more males on the team
CNN will report this as Trump’s fault, yet again. The figure skaters deliberately failed in a protest against a lack of gun control and as an excuse not to have to attend the White House reception by Trump.
Every area of our country suffered under obama, it seems.
Dont see how he could have ###ed up the woman’s skating team though. But who knows :)
MUCH more important is the talent in the military. We can survive less gold medals.
Can’t survive the rampant destruction of our armed services the past 8 years. (well, not the past one, and let’s hope Trump gets them up to snuff sooner than later. I do know final field tests have become MUCH more difficult recently under orders from up top)
Some one said the other day that they changed the scoring system to weigh more heavily on difficulty of spins rather than perfection in carrying them out.
So, for example, you might get more points for crappy execution of a triple than you would get for a flawless execution of a double.
So this encourages them to try things they can’t do as well, to increase their points. It’s all about the points.
Just about everyone landed on their bum at least once last night. It’s like dogs howling or babies crying; one does it and everybody else joins in.
Impossible to believe! Who wouldn't be riveted by this sh!t!?"
You couldn’t pay me to watch the olympics.
Okay, you could pay me..
“At least Adam Rippon was fabulous.”
Adam’s sequins were second to none.
NBC, we don’t care about the sob stories connected to these athletes. We want to see WINNING. There were few winners in this dreary Olympics, with the exception of our snowboarders and the women’s hockey team.
The fact is the Russian figure skating girls are just better than everyone else this year. In four years it will be someone else.
I think the ratings slip is just the continued decline of network TV in general. Many people continue to cut the cable and watch Netflix, HULU, etc.
At least we get to see Johnny weirdo and his fruitcake hairstyle.

Wow it’s a good thing nobody’s been watching it.
I love figure skating, but the women are BORING.We will never again have a group of skaters like those in the 80’s. Boitano, Wylie, Hamilton,Petrenko,Baiul,Gordeeva and Grinkov,Torvill and Dean,Underhill and Martini. And once your a&& hits the ice you should be-IMO- out of contention. This Olympics, the Japanese have it. Even our golden boy-Chen-disappointed.
Sometimes you suck, that’s the way it is.
Gators win National Championships then look like they did this season, it happens in all sports, it’s cyclical.
I’m sorry NBC, but having to listen to Johnny Weird made me reach for the remote.
Not sure how you load up for a triple axle and only do a single, which anyone can do.
