If Russia loses this game it will be a huge embarassment.

Question:

Is perky Katie-mouth and BobCostas-mouth going to host the closing ceremony...or will it be presented without their immutable commentaries and critiques?

Ugh. Bode misses a gate! The U.S. Alpine team was hoping for at least two golds and four medals and ends up with two silvers. Very disappointing for U.S. skiers. Instead of stepping up, we fell down on the home snow. What a bummer. The U.S. does great at these Olympics overall, but the Alpine skiers did quite poorly.

Ohno has been moved from Olympic quarters due to threats and has a bodyguard. The sheriff or whatever he is..(dressed up in a uniform) said that Ohno was the nicest guy you could meet/guard/ or something like that...glad to hear it...I hope he beats that Korean!

Ohno gets the Dairy Queen. And deservedly so, clearly pushed the Japanese. He knew he was guilty, look how he held back after the wreck, finishing way back in third.

In the race before, I think the Korean would have a good gripe about the Canadian cutting him off.

Yeah, he deserved it. At least he didn't pick up a USA Flag and throw it down and stomp on it.....like the Korean did..hee hee.

It will be interesting to see what the koreans do about their top dog loss.

How do those people not get injured..they slide down sideways with their head bobbing everywhere and against the side of the track..sort of like they did in the movie Cool Runnings.. I got whiplash injury from a car accident and I can't understand why the don't suffer cervical strains etc.

At least Ohno hung back after he faulted the other guy and acted like the nice guy we have known him to be. I am so happy the Korean faltered though. That guy is so damn nervy.
