Nictarion Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Thought the Germans pulled off the upset against Russia. Gonna be a heartbreaker if they can’t pull this out in OT or the SO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altherion Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 The Germans had better teamwork, but the Russian players were clearly better and not just by a little bit. In the end, the latter proved to be just a tiny bit more important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigFatCoward Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Did anybody see the womens 30km cross country f'ck up?

the Greenleif Stark Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 20 hours ago, Altherion said: I despise the way NBC (i.e. the American channel with rights to broadcast this Olympics) is covering this. Instead of showing the live hockey gold medal game, they're showing some race that happened yesterday and even then they're skipping parts of it. Grrr... Could not agree more, NBC has been terrible with their coverage but it's not surprising considering they always suck at covering the Olympics, summer or winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DireWolfSpirit Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 This 300 flying drone stars/heart/white tiger was absolutely beautiful and flawlessly executed by the Korean hosts, really impressive feature of that cloosing ceremony.

Teng Ai Hui Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I heard this quote today on a podcast that was discussing the Olympics in general: “A shout out to Scotland for inventing every sport but never winning any of them. Just a tiny sports laboratory cranking out sports for the good of the world and then getting drunk enough to invent more sports.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does remind me a bit of this QI episode on Scottish inventions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
