ohno is amazing.

That was a hell of a pass by Ohno.

ohno's soul patch possesses the power of a full beard.

I thought he had a clean pass. It was his fault the other guy tripped up on his skate? Bullshit!

Oh, there's no doubt that Celski disposed of the guy. What else are you gonna do if somebody get up on your ass like that and grabs you around the waist? That's what started it, and that's what the call should've been. Even with the call they did make, the other guy shouldn't have been advanced. This is NBA-level officiating.

...And in Ohno's semifinal heat, a photo finish! The Canadian guy in that one grabbed the Korean guy at the finish line. It looked to me like he was holding him back or at least using him for leverage to advance his own skate to the line. I'm not complaining about that though - it keeps a Korean out of the final. Those guys are bastards.

If Lady Gaga and Mariah Carey don't get you fired up to watch some motherfuckin' ice dancing, I don't know what will.

NBC said there is a delay at the short track. What are the chances we miss the live race?

This B final is exciting!

1 on 1 in the short track B-final. This is fucking pointless.

I think Apollo is relaxed. He just yawned during pre-race announcments.

 

[CentralMOBuck]

Fuck you Canada.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

damn canadian. get your damn hands off our americans.

 

[jlb1705]

Kinda figured that was gonna happen. He was the odd man out racing against a pair of brothers and a pair of teammates. That was a big effort just to get on the podium.

That little French-Canadian dude needs to take his act to doubles luge if he like touching other guys' hips that much.

Short track is freaking exciting. Great comeback by Apollo.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

nonetheless, congrats to ohno for breaking bonnie blair's medal count.

Great race. Ohno goes to make a pass and so do the Koreans, then on the turn Ohno nearly falls, but is able to amazingly regain his balance and it turns into a sprint to the finish. The Koreans made the best push though and Apollo gets the Bronze. The Canadians were snubbed in front of the home crowd though, which has to suck.
