Yes, the hollering was heard on this side of the mountains.. crazy! It was sure exciting to watch.
Jon actually apologized for his over enthusiasm.
The US vs. Canada hockey game is Sunday.
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.

We love Curling! I wish they would would show it on TV in the years between the Olympics. We just ordered our Curling hats(they look like the rocks) and we are going to our first open house next weekend,to watch and maybe get on the ice to learn more about it. We love the pants too, I think they have a facebook page.

Are you going to the one in South Plainfield? My niece was telling me tonight she wants to curl, I just might have to take her to check it out!

We were going to go to that one, but now we are going to one on Sat in Phillie. They are both an hour and a half away from us, but my kids want to go the King of Prussia Mall after the open house, which is right next to the Philadelphia Curling Club.
Last night cnbc showed a men's match between Canada & Great Britain. It gave a better idea to people watching at home how the game can be more like chess and strategy, than the games being played by the USA teams( I hope the new skip will help them). I'm so glad they started showing other countries playing.

That was a terrific game (despite the Canadian loss). That Hiller was absolutely phenomenal!

Ok so the Americans won an Olympic Hockey game against the Canadians. (it was a great game, don't get me wrong), but it was Pool Play. Team USA is in the quarters this week (final 8) 3 more wins and they can claim Gold. Still any medal at these games would be great for this team. Lots of young and up and coming stars on this team.
It wasn't a miracle they won last night so don't compare it to 1980. By the way 30 yrs ago tonight (2-22-80) the US beat the Russians to get to the gold medal game.
How about the hit Ovechkin put on Jagr?

But that hit was one of the BEST hits that I have seen in a long time. Glad they scored on the play as well. Way to Jagr, puck hogging with your head down. He was asking for it.

Hey how about US womens Hockey Rout of the sweedish team, now they can capture the gold !!!
Go Team.
Nice Job so far...
Now go get that gold !!!

It's pretty exciting that the U.S. nordic combined team won its first ever medal, only a few days after Johnny Spillane won the first-ever U.S. medal in nordic combined. Woohoo!
I think that the USOC is developing a strategy to win medals in events where the U.S. has lagged, like the Nordic events. Supposedly they're doing this in curling, where the focus is really to medal in Sochi in 2014 rather than now.
One other note - the alpine skiers' suits are making me long for skiing gear of the 70's. I know functionality is most important, but jeesh. Not all skiers out there have hideous outfits, as there are some whose outfits match quite nicely to the bibs and they obviously gave this some thought. Here is a tip for our alpine friends, once you know the bib color, then pick the suit, then the accessories. Rule #1 - never wear anything that will make you cringe when you are shown a photo of yourself in 20 years' time.

I hope they change the way they pick the team. Now they have teams from clubs around country play in trials to determin the best team. What they should do is pick the five best curlers in the country and get them together as a team in like 2011 or 2012 so they have a couple years to play together. Not sure if there going to able to do this unless they get some sponsers to pay for it though.

I was enjoying the curling but it is still going on and by now, I have had enough curling to last a lifetime (sorry curling fans-- glad it's there for you).
I loved the figure skating- the ice dancing was incredible, and then last night the women were good, too. I was in tears when Joannie Rochette finished. So glad she decided to skate after losing her mother, but wow, how hard it must be for her. She had a wonderful performance.

So excited to watch the skating tonight! We are very proud of our Atlanta girl Elana Meyers winning a bronze in bobsled, they showed her family leaving on the plane to go watch her. Can't wait for Apolo on Sat, the guy is amazing and too cute!
