Try singing 'wild doges' to the tune of 'wild horses'. It's fun. e: lyrics even make sense for the olympics Wild doges couldn't drag me away Wild, wild doges, couldn't drag me away I watched you suffer a dull aching pain Now you decided to show me the same No sweeping exits or offstage lines Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Cross-country skiing is way more palatable. And boring. Ok, maybe not. Zeluth fucked around with this message at 12:08 on Feb 9, 2014 |

No, it's our first on a snow event rather than an ice one (I think). We've been getting curling medals for like 80 years

If only Eddie the Eagle won something instead of being useless then we could have a terrible legacy like the Jamaican bobsled team.

Alan Smithee posted:I've never watched winter O relgiiously are these number of wipeouts typical? Yeah I was wondering the same when watching the men's slopestyle yesterday. Out of 12 finalists, some who got great scores in the semis, only 2 of them got above somewhat decent scores in the first round of the finals. Was it the nerves, trying to put in a more complex routine, or simply the course falling apart that caused this.

So does anyone know what specific remix of "not gonna get us" they used for the Russian team during the parade? It was kind of catchy but I don't feel like digging through youtube for it.

The cassette has a 50% chance of melting during playing.

fatherboxx posted:Did you know that Russia has a black athlete in curling? I believe there's a women's runner from Russia, Ukraine, or another one of the Eastern European countries that's was born from an immigrant family in the country. Her name is eluding me at this point, but I remember coming across her and being startled by it.
