Absolutely. It’s not the same game. Dumbest overtime idea ever.

i'm super tuned out of this olympics

almost watched a couple times but then realized right now feel no urge to root for the US

we are basically Russia right now

whole thing is shameful

don't care about us winning anything

and also don't care about obsessive people who only do one thing all life anyways

who gives a shit if you trimmed 15 ms of someone else's time skiing in a loop

get a job, hippie

These Olympics have been fun to watch. All countries should be allowed to compete. Attempting to pick and choose which countries deserve to have their athletes punished and thinking it makes any difference in the world beyond an athletic competition that has lost much of its relevance in recent decades is idiotic.

Had more fun with it than I would have guessed. I haven't watched as much winter sports these last few years. Look forward to a couple of the final events this weekend.

My wife had the exhibition figure skating on this morning. I think the skaters are allowed to write the little bits and scripts. So cringe.

Was only a matter of time before PEDs infiltrated the world of curling.

I was thinking the USA were looking stronger based on the win margins in the semis, but it turns out Finland are just way the fuck better than Slovakia, so...

Watched 2 high school and two college games already this weekend. Now this incredible spectacle. Hockey is just the best.

that was intense

could have been Canada 5-1

USA goalie was in the zone

at least Hughes got the goal. dude paid for it by losing two teeth earlier. surprised he kept playing. serious hockey smile at the end of the game from him

Canada blew so many chances. Missing an open net from a few feet away is kinda unforgivable.

Well played, USA.
