Sochi Olympics 2014

Exactly, it's hockey. It's their game. Which means that we should take it, dominate it, make them watch, kill most of them, and force the survivors to worship White Jesus and laissez faire capitalism. That's what Manifest fucking Destiny is about.

Conceded.

Wait - hockey celebrates beards.

So did Bin Laden. But after reading 513's post, I'm in agreement.

Fuck Canada.

Bin Laden was a no-touch icing fan....

The cross country analyst (for NBC) Chad Salmela kind of grew on me during these Olympics. Even though he's screaming like it's horse racing, it's cross country skiing and biathlon, and people usually only pay attention every four years.

Plus, it seems like it's real passion (from Salmela) for the sport.

I got that same passion listening online to Ed Lukowich (curling) and Stuart Storey (speedskating).

Reading this story on post-olympic venues, not surprisingly, U.S. venues have the highest rate of post-olympic use (no one is 100%). Some are ghost towns.

Good to see HuffPo recycling stories that ran 2 and 3 weeks ago....

Early PP for the USA. Need to take advantage and get some adrenaline flowing.

You're not paying attention if you think that HuffPo is the only news outlet that does this.
They all do it! It's "filler".

Did I say otherwise? Back to your cave hippie.

Not surprisingly, Patrick Kane chokes on the penalty shot....

 

[buckeyeintn]

That was a weak shot. Needed to go high.

Kane really hasn't had the greatest tournament ever. Makes me wonder if he's hurt or tired or something.

 

[buckeyeintn]

With the tournament he's had, you would have thought we would have a better option to take the shot.

One thing about the NBC Live Extra (live stream) for the Olympics, you'd wish they'd give you the option to minimize the sidebar on the right with the Tweets. But it's sponsored (Citi), so that's not going to happen.

If you buffer or watch a replay (and were avoiding watching the event due to work), the results are sometimes right there on the sidebar (due to Tweet).

I'm not entirely sure who was on the ice at the time of the penalty, but it had to be one of those 5....

And......this game might end 1-0 Finland....
