Maybe Bob washed his face with the water in his hotel bathroom before he read the warning sign.

Anyway, you won't have to look at him tonight:

Personally, I'd rather have Costas with advanced leprosy, than Lauer back when he still had hair...but that's just me.

Costas was tolerable before he dripped with self-sanctimony to such an extend he has to wipe off his toupee every 5 minutes. But that was a long time ago.

Great Britain (Scotland) women's curling 12-3 over U.S. women'

U.S. women didn't make it to the 7th end (prior to concession). I've never seen 7 in one end before.

Jesus, if they are going to suck, they could at least have the decency to bring back the Johnson sisters.

Don't really get the strategy of curling or what is really going on. Well, at least the way the US is playing. It would actually be helpful and make it more watchable to get some actual analysis and commentary. I feel like there is a lot of dead air. Coverage is woeful and a lot of replaying of the same stuff over and over on the different NBC channels.

I'm up for watching the sports that don't require any human judging to determine the winner. That said, I do like watching the various acrobatic ski jumping and boarding events, but I ignore the scoring as it seems nonsensical.

Didn't have a problem with Kate Hansen dancing to warm up (Duncan Kennedy did). It's a sport where America has never medaled before (until Erin Hamlin did Tuesday). Whatever to get loose (she did this 60-75 minutes prior to her run).

You'll never learn a thing about curling by watching the USA. Try watching Great Britain or Canada. Since they're playing in matches that matter, you're more likely to get some commentary to go along with it.

I don't understand why anybody would have a problem. Even if it were somehow ineffective, it's an individual sport and she's only responsible to herself for how she prepares.

I wish there were thought bubbles as to what the two guards were thinking.

The photo would be even funnier if behind the distracted guards you saw people escaping with bags of money or plutonium or something.
