Definitely very interesting! I couldn't wait, so I looked for the results online. I'm looking forward to seeing this tonight.

Do we love the Olympics or what?

Now if we could just keep the momentum up for tonights Curling match (in which even if Finland loses the guys will still get the silver) and Hockey match against Russia!!!!

We could only make it through two skaters last night. It seems like the commentators all want to be Simon Cowell, with dry, sarcastic comments ripping performances.
I wish I could get better coverage that focused on the athletic competition.

Sasha, like Peyton Manning, is extremely talented but can never totally deliver when the pressure is on, you could see it in her eyes.
Ava79 said:Finland got silver in curling! YAY! Obviously gold would have been even better (congratulations Canada!) but I can't complain really. Now fingers crossed for our hockey team to win tonight...

Despite having Canada lose to Finland, I'm all for the Finnish hockey team as Saku Koivu is awesome to the awesomest level.
nbcrusader said:How can a skater have two falls in a performance, yet still get a medal?
I wish they could better convey the scoring of a performance - so you knew how many points were available and how many awarded for each move.
