Pretty good finish to it as well. US took the lead and then couldn't hold it, but I would say 2 silvers in Nordic Combined events for the US is pretty damn good.ccrunner609 wrote: Nordic Combined on first......love this event.

A stupid mental mistake like that is a horrible way to lose, especially when he absolutely dominated.

Yeah, I think she got a little home cooking sympathy on that score. The American girl totally got jobbed and should have won bronze.Speedofsand wrote: The Canadian figure skater whose mother passed away recently just skated on NBC. It was inspirational. The crowd went wild for her, and she scored her all time personal best. Currently in 3rd place.
Thus proving that the Olympic village is, in fact, a wild sex party.eersandbeers wrote:
That's right. As you read this, an emergency shipment of condoms is desperately making its way across Canada to the West Coast city.
Health officials in Vancouver have already provided 100,000 free condoms to the roughly 7,000 ahtletes and officials at the Games. That's about 14 condoms per person. But as of Wednesday, those supplies started running dangerously low.
So naturally, the Canadian Foundation for AIDS research decided to step and make sure there were no hitches in Olympic action.
"When we heard about the condom shortage in Vancouver, we felt it important to respond immediately," said Kerry Whiteside, CANFAR's Executive Director. The organization assembled three large boxes of about 8,500 condoms, much to the relief of libidos at the Olympic Village. They're expected to arrive on Thursday.

Apparently so. Even at a wild sex party 14 condoms in 12 days is a crap load to go through. Especially when you consider many of the athletes probably aren't doing it on some nights because they have a race the next day.gorocks99 wrote:
