The final compilation of my in the moment Facebook thoughts from this game. The last few days have less because I got really sick, so I had less thoughts. Bound to happen after 16 days on a super weird sleep schedule in the middle of winter.
Without further ado- here they are...
Who knew the French were any good at cross country skiing? I certainly wouldn't have thought so, but today I am proven wrong.
Its kind of weird to hear passenger playing over the speakers at the cross country event. wouldn't that effect the rhythm and speed of the skiers to have music? can they hear that while they ski?
What an amazing race for the cross country team relay race. good job guys
One of team Russia was a figure skater before she went to curling. Maybe I need to follow her example.
practicing my sweeping techniques, and shouting for curling tonight, I brushed my dogs teeth, the whole time calling out- clean!! Clean!! whoa Whoa!! Clean!! Whoa!! Sweep!! hard hard hard!!! I think his teeth were brushed quite excellently, and he can stay in the house.
Boarder cross is canceled due to fog, guess that means I can go to bed "early"
Lithuania are skating to Skyfall, super awesome. Go Lietuva!! Very exciting number to watch, and they get vocals, because its ice dance. Looks like they are skating well to me, but I'm not an ice dance expert. Good job Tobais and Stagniunas!!
My aunt Elaine would be supper proud of me, im watching four screens at once this morning, it takes skill to watch that many sporting events at once
America have got to work on their shooting, we've had to ski a penalty every lap this morning, but were keeping near the top, if we shot better, we'd be there.
Austrailia are skating to circus music! Why!! Kill me now!!
No people say they don't believe, Monaco has a bobsled team.
Watching bobsled and I see an orange sled, and men in orange suits, and im like, Orange? What country wears orange? Duh!! Netherlands! Where have you been this games? Must be early morning yet.
Good transfer of energy on that shot denmark. Well played stones
Oh my! One of the ice dancers appears to have a Picaso on the back of her dress
Michael Jackson tribute? Well played Brits. Such fun! Well skated.
One thing ive learned this morning, every sport is more exciting and dramatic with ice dance music playing in the background of it.
Apparently michael jackson tributes and spy themes are all the rage in figure skating this year
Ive just noticed, curling, biathalon and cross country ski are probably the only sports thay dont show incessant instant replays. Probably because if you missed it the first time, showing it again slower isnt going to help you catch it.
Great Britains eminent curling victory over Denmark is well hightened by the music medley from les miserables that one of the american ice dance couples are skating to. (Great Britain ended up loosing. I blame my remark here).
Oops, I jinxed my team. Gb lost to denmark in overtime, now they have to play Canada in the semi finals
Im tired. I think I need a nap. The good news is, I dont need to stay up late to watch Ice dance in prime Time. the bad news is, this means I cant go on and on about the winners until tomorrow.
Just watched the documentary "The Price of Gold" on the whole Tanya-Nancy incident. Interesting. I have a slightly different perspective about both skaters now, but still am undecided if I fully believe one way or another on Tanya's envolvement. The one thing I didn' t like about this, was that it made Oksana Baiule's winning the gold medal look like an additional scandal, and I think thats just rubbish, even if that were to have been the case, its not going to help anyone at all to uncover that now. focus on your main story people.
Ive gotten in the habit of asleep watching the Olympics. I dont know how Im going to sleep after this coming sunday. Is there a sounds of british curling cd I can purches somewhere?
If I were a fast runner, I'd so do bobsled. Unfortunately Im not, but I did get to ride in a bobsled once, and it was a lot of fun.
I know not everyone likes lolo jones, but I sure enjoy her unique personality and extraordinary athletic abilities. Im glad that shes in the Winter Olympics now. That coach from cool runnings (well, at leasty john candy's version, I dont know if the real one said it) Runners make the best bobsleders. And I'd probably add, it looks like figure skaters make pretty great curlers.
Scott Hamilton has always been my favorite. This was so what I needed to hear tonight. What a good man. The world needs a few more of him. (on Scott Hamiltons faith video)
wow photo finish at biathalon today, thats exciting
Watching an interview with an american snowboard cross-er, and all I could think was= that man has no eyebrows. Then I remembered that I have really blond hard to see eyebrows too, so maybe I shouldn't be so judgy.
Latvia made it into the hockey quarter finals? Good job Latvia!!!
It would appear Ted Ligity had no cold problems today.
congratulations to Finland, and anyone of Finish decent, its a great day for anyone who beats the Russians at hockey on their home turf.
Im quite sad tomorrow is the last day of curling, I have grown to love it over the past two weeks, and Eve Muirhead is my new favorite Olympian.
I've never liked "send in the clowns." That hasn't changed tonight. pretty skating, but I hate that song
is it just me, or have the skating skirts gotten shorter?
Does yulia Lipninskya remind anyone else of Prim from the Hunger games? especially with that fall today, she looked so sad. well, she fell, of course she was sad. awesome braid though.
Congratulations to Eve Muirhead and the girls on a well played Olympics.#lovecurling #teamgb
I've become the kind of person that completely enjoys watching ten ends of curling. Dont know how that happend but it did
So great to finally watch, in its entirety 10 ends of Eve, Anna, Vicky, and the quiet red headed one who's name I always forget, win the Bronze. I so love womens curling, and Im so excited to see the men tomorrow. GO TEAM GB CURLING!!! (AKA Scotland )
Im trying to will the puck into the back of the net so team usa can score one, but its just isn't working. perhaps the sinus meds have deminished the strength of the force within me.
I think amid all the controversy with the womens figure skating, we are overlooking the fact that Carolina Kostner skated to Bolero and did an excellent job of it. Im a day behind watching, but I really enjoyed watching that one
we are seriously looking like we wont medal in men's hockey. What the crap?
5-0 with less than 6 minutes, I'm calling it. We just got slaughtered by the Fins. Another good day to be Finish.
weird start to the champions gala, but im pretty happy any time someone decideds to bring in the song Je t'aime. Laura Fabien is one of my favorite french singers.
Im in love with that spanish figure skater javier, and totally geeking out at the same time. What a guy!
Without further ado- here they are...
