i was drawn into that curling match yesterday too. i saw a basic explaination yesterday morning so that made watching easier. it was tough watching the US guys comeback, tie, then lose in an extra frame.

I watched it too. Not to pile on the dude, but "The Rick" has missed the match winning shot in all 3 of their losses.

Ski Cross is a ridiculously entertaining sport!! Probably just a little better than curling

i agree but let's credit the x-games.

boardcross was the original and despite my lingering resentment of doof boarders that sit down in the middle of a run in front of me i have to say this is my favorite of the winter olympics.

downhill used to be my #1 "i wouldn't do that" sport. skicross replaced it.

and congrats to Bode Miller on his first Olympic gold medal - if any skier deserved it, it was surely him. He adds it to the silver and bronze he has already won in VONNcouver!!
