Powershift posted:Canada's going to have their best olympics ever by medal count and the media is still gonna say the whole squad sucked because they didn't get any curling or hockey golds. To be honest, every gold medal Canada won this year seems to be entirely due to the favorites to win either crashing or falling down in the final race. Out of everything I've watched, only Virtue and Moir were the ones that actually dominated their event.

Kingsbury, Cassie Sharpe and the team figure skaters were definitely favourites, Bloemen and the 2-man bobsleigh were expected to at least podium

quote:"It's a pretty good story. This is just another step," Shuster said. "I just decided that, 50 years from now, maybe I'm long gone, when my kids are showing my grandkids video from the Olympics, I don't want all my videos to be me failing."

Why is Koe so bad? Why hasn't Hebert broken a stick over his head yet? At one of the events last year they had a rule where you could only use one broom the whole time. Hebert got so pissed off he put his broom down, walked over the bag to get another one and started smashing it.

Koe overthrew two stones that would have been better too heavy

Maybe it's time for Koe to fake an injury so he doesn't have to throw any more rocks, and maybe Canada can maybe claw back into this one. e: really shameful yelling and poo poo from the crowd when the other team is throwing their rocks

First half-miss I've seen from the Korean skip, she underthrew her last stone in a Koe fashion and allowed Japan to store 2 instead of 1.

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Korean skip had a simple draw, could even hit, to go to the gold medal match. Instead, it was a touch too heavy and Japan stole a point pushing the match into EE.

I will be gutted if Korea fails to advance here. More gutted than Canada was when the women's hockey team lost.

I only caught the last few ends but that game was one of the best I’ve seen in the tournament. Both of those teams are on fire.
