The Finns won a biathlon Gold in the winter of 39-40. They blew away the Russians.Being 1/2 Finn I'm proud of that Gold.

Warning - it may be addictive. I’ve watched it 4 times now and I still laugh every time. I keep seeing something new. :-)

Yes, well, Bob Costas openly asked whether Russia deserved to get the Olympics...so looks like both sides have screwed up.
I don’t like American announcers bad mouthing the hosts or the athletes of foreign countries, and I don’t like it when foreign announcers do it to Americans.
Hey, wasn’t Team Obama supposed to make things better?
Anyone remember when Hussein and his wife were going to get the Olympics to go to Chicago??? One of the greatest moments in ObamaCult history was when the CNN sycophant was obviously distressed when the FIRST CITY REJECTED was Obama’s Chicago....oh, how I loved that....HERE is the video for those of you who didn’t see it:

As well you should be. Tough people, the Finns.On the other hand my grandparents decided to uproot their lives and come to America. Whenever people have this great interest in their ancestors and the countries they came from I think about this. Life sucked so badly that I'm leaving my birthplace and moving to a place where I don't know anybody or anything about. I hope my great grandchildren don't say I'm 1/2 American.

LOL! Some of those facial expressions kill me.
It’s hysterical to see the young-ish lead singers showing us what White Man Dancing - Russian Style - looks like. I have to wonder if any of them understand the meaning of the lyrics: “I’m up all night to get some! I’m up all night to get lucky!” The huskier guy singing those lyrics over and over into the vocoder, lol. The whole thing is comedy gold.

For three-quarters of a century (1917-92), the American Left and its media mouthpieces acted as allies and apologists for the Russians because they were Communists and fellow travelers. Now, the Left demonizes the Russians because they don’t kowtow to the so-called gays. What a bizarre reversal.
To: Chode
something you won't see in the American L$M It's been amost 30 years since the 1984 Summer Olympics in LA. Back then, ABC mostly just covered US athetes.

After Komova made mistakes in her routine, Ivanova remarked with: "She made a few mistakes, but we did not notice them." The Russian version of the American press dealing with Obama... of course, without the charm...

It seems like MSM are tasked to bash these Olympics so badly.
How is this crap could ever make into news?
Has TV announcer to be impartial? Is she a judge or jury or what?
AFAIK, it is called patriotism. American MSM could do the same too.
