Who is THAT! Gender check please.

It may be that some wear the CCCP clothes to pi## off the Russians. But that Weir guy....not sure about that. He just pi$#@d me off. And I could not stand to cheer for him.

Maybe I will become hip and start wearing the CCCP tshirts and sweats, or even better, my CCCP sweats with my Che Guivera tshirts!

Don't forget to sport a Fidel hat! Oh, and of course, a fine Cuban cigar.

LOL!! Today is for laugh breaks, between Rush and here, I am cracking up!

I've liked Gretchen and the other medal girl snowboarder, they are hilarious together.

[RoseofTexas]

I couldn't believe the like fag last night! I hope the little dahling falls flat on his twinkle toes...sheesh what a queer!!

[frogjerk]

I was half listening to his an interview last night with Weir prior to his skate. He made some reference to "southern Republicans", I assume it wasn't a support Bush comment.

Did you catch that?

I did and it made me sick. I hope Weir falls on his face tonight.

bttt

[Brytani]

Funny how he is openly Gay and yet is sporting a coat in support of a country where homosexuality could land a person in prison for life or forced into a mental facility.

I wouldn't be suprised if tonight he skates in a Burkah (spelling???)

[Brytani]

He almost landed on his prissy rear end last night. Can't believe I'm rooting against an American Athlete but geeesh....shut up and skate!!!!

[Eurotwit]

Russia lost.

And the USA is trailing Latvia.

Some great hockey being played. I love watching the NHL players go wild on the larger European rinks.

Cheers.

[John O]

thanks!

[MikefromOhio]

The USA game shows how quickly things can change.

Latvia, without Irbe, isn't even in this game. But with him, they have a shot at winning it.

There's always a team in the prelims that upsets one of the bigs and we may be seeing it here.

[StarFan]

Thanks for the ping. I think my entire town will be watching my son's friend Danny Joye in the mens double luge if we could figure out when he'll be on. Originally scheduled for 4:00. Here's his photo:

Go Danny Go!

[nutmeg]

Cool! Was his event televised yet? I think men's double luge is supposed to be televised during the prime time show tonight. I will look for Danny!

[netmilsmom]

I saw the double luge. Do you want to know?

[netmilsmom]

I'm off to CCD. By the time I get back, you'll know.

[Cecily]

Forget Mr. Goofy. We can look forward to rooting for the American ice dancers.

[StarFan]

I saw the double luge. Do you want to know?

Went to NBC to check the schedule where I learned the news. Since this is his debut I'm not surprised but am so disappointed not to have seen him. Hopefully they'll show a little more this evening and not during Dancing with the Stars!
