    Bronze is all we can get in Curling based on current fiasco v Canada women.

    Just checked and we are 4-2 after 4 ends and doing well in this one. Plenty still left to play for from what I can tell.

    I guess you might be one of those that runs up the white flag and buggers off home early if we are losing? Strange comment to make when so much of the game left imo and I genuinely thought it must have been all over when I read that.

    They went 0-3 after first two ends - same as in the round robin match, which they lost, and Eve said afterwards that it's difficult to come back when you give three away to a team like Canada...They are certainly up against it. Big shot coming up now...

    Hahaha the Finnish cross-country skier cutting up the Kraut metres from the end denying the German's gold in the team sprint, in fact they didn't even get a medal. Krauts not happy! Finns going mental!

    Bye Russia

    Damn, what a litany of failure this hockey tournament has been for them. You'd have thought having the Devil himself on their #1 line would have seen them through against Finland...

    I've just heard Anna talk for the first time. She sounds like a munchkin. A wee blue eyed Scots munchkin. That's a WIN

    Brilliant from the girls, completely in control for the second half

    Amazing photo finish just now in the ski cross. 2nd 3rd and 4th all slid over the finish line together on their backs/fronts/sides, none of them actually on their skis

    Giant screen for the Winter Olympics downtown in my 'hood. This is from this morning & the women's hockey final - going to be busy tomorrow morning with Canada playing the US in the mens hockey SF - thankfully it's only around -5 at the moment, supposed to be around -25 when the hockey final goes on Sunday....
