ok anything you want to discuss or post about the winter olympics do it here.

this came across shocking and kinda funny, for some reason all the figure skaters were falling, my explanation: giant magnets
In the final group, three of the five teams fell, starting with Canada's Marie-France Dubreuil, who slipped out of partner Patrice Lauzon's grip on a lift. Dubreuil's fall seemingly hurt the most, at least physically. Dubreuil bruised her right thigh and hip and was carried by her partner to the kiss and cry area. The Canadians entered in fourth but dropped to sixth.

Did you hear about Hasek losing his hockey gear? He had to borrow equiptment from italy...
"I wasn't happy with it, but it was better than nothing," said Hasek
Poor guy.

He had to withdraw from the olympics due to a groin injury. Soo many of those in hockey this season. So many.

its the austria team and i was trying to figure out what the hell they can do with a blood transfusion machine and it turns out that after a blood transfusion your platelet count is up so it pumps you up with natural adrenaline and energy im just not sure if thats against the rules or not.

lol they all pointed their fingers at the camera like guns and this one guy kept winking like they were expecting to make headlines and he wanted to look as gay as possible, he even made it look like he shot then blew on his finger. from my experience canadian guys are cool especially as drinking buddies but i think that these 4 hang out in the 'wrong' kind of bars

Swedin Won Gold!! (hockey)
My second choise after Canada
Dominik Hasek of the Ottawa Senators,
Sami Salo and Mattias Ohlund of the Vancouver Canucks, Alexander Frolov of the Los Angeles Kings and Patrik Elias of the New Jersey Devils are some leading players of their teams are who suffered injuries during Olympic play.
