No thread yet? Here it is!
The Dutch took the co-lead medal-wise with gold, silver and bronze on the 5000 meter ice skating race. Pretty much the only thing we're good at and I don't expect any medals outside of ice skating.
Slopestyle Snowboarding made it's debut and it's awesome.
So discuss the 2014 Winter Olympics! Do you follow any events? Any predictions on medals?
Slopestyle is cray. I love it. It reminds me of SSX.
Plus the BBC have the greatest set of commentators for it, they get so into it.
CURLING IS GOING ON RIGHT NOW AND SWITZERLAND IS GETTING #REKT BY THE USA GET IN HERE
ANY OF YOU GUYS NOT WATCHING CURLING ARE MISSING THE ENTIRE REASON TO WATCH THE WINTER OLYMPICS
Edit: nvm I start watching and we start losing
I used to fake illness from School to watch 98 and 2002 winter olympics it was great. I like a bit of curling and ice hockey. Ice skate races are pretty cool as well.
Yeah they can be super tense.Quote:

I'm not sure what it is about Curling it just gets me hooked our ladies look like a good team. I watched the womens sprint skiing today which must be so tiring,the Norwegians won gold and silver as well as curling:D I think it's when they slide on the ice before releasing the stone, it brings out my inner penguin.

Way to express "all in all a satisfactory performance"
I felt sick watching the Skeleton but so glad Lizzy managed to get the gold.
I haven't watched any winter olympics ever in my life. I may have see footage of curling. Is that where they play marbles on the ice... with brooms?
Just noticed that team GB have a gold medal though! That brings our total of medals in 2014 to a new, all-time record total of... two.
Boarder Cross and Ski Cross :excited:
Also Anton Kushnir's gold medal performance in the Men's Aerials. HOLY SMURFIN' TROUT...
My country is killing it in speedskating.
Dutch speedskating now biggest medal machine in Winter Olympic history - CSMonitor.com
GB through to the Curling final!

We just needed Patches O'Houlihan to show us how to play.
After seeing our performance he'll be curling in his grave.
