I wish I had the patience to learn snowboarding, after skiing for more than 15 years, I have no desire to learn it.

 

You do go quicker on a board than skis, at least it appeared that way.

I don't think that's true though I'm not sure. I tried snowboarding once but it was too annoying to go back to being a beginner.

 

That bowl is great if the snow and light are good. I like Palli's though that falls into quick exhaustion category.

I have a suggestion. If you are East coast or central, time zone when you see stuff you shoud type in white or small so people on the west coast know its a spoiler. I'm central so it doesn't really matter to me, but...

 

Go Shaun White!

 

Small and white would probably be best.

I learned the fate of the Flying Tomato this morning on ESPN.com, and promptly switched my home page to my e-mail so I wouldn't be spoiled anymore.

I've done both (though much more snowboarding) and I have to agree with UK.

that snowboards are faster? I still don't think its true though by the laws of physics.

Some female skiier for America crashed during a trial run today and had to be rushed to the hospital. I don't recall her name and I didn't hear if she'll be alright or not. Scary stuff.

Good. I'm sick of her wasting our time with that desperate quest for a gold. The Peyton Manning of women's figure skating, to be sure.

 

That's an awful thing to say. Michelle Kwan has been one of the most gracious sports figure I can remember. She has carried herself with grace and dignity her entire career. "Wasting our time for that desperate quest for a gold?" What's that supposed to mean?

Yeah, that stupid Michelle Kwan, trying to win a gold medal for her country in the event and arena she trained her whole life for.

Was Bode Miller wearing a Barilla Pasta hat lat night? What?

 

The Men's Short track speedskating is the lamest sport on Earth.

 

 

Announcer 1: For these first 6 laps everyone tries to conserve energy

Announcer 2: Ono is doing great! Look at his face! He doesn't appear to be trying at all.

Announcer 1: This will surely bode well for him later when he will also not attempt to skate fast until the very end.

I'm spellbound by this curling stuff. Never knew the rules before today.

 

My roommate was raving about curling a few weeks ago. I just kinda laughed at him and moved on, but we were watching it from 3 am-5 am this morning, and we're watching it again now. It's awesome.

I was just going by my own experience, even on a green run on a board, I was flying and ready to catch the toe edge.

 

Some reason, it's pure speed on a board and mine is only a 152 or something like that.
