yeah haha, my mistake, sorry buddy. The mask is basically a commonly used slang term. the more official name is the face-cage (wire cage) :)

Not like back in the 60s when the dentist nearest the hockey stadium was always the richest guy in town.

Gotta solidify that gold medal (and maybe a second medal) in the pairs competition :p

 

Though to be fair even without the host nation boost they had a decent chance for those medals. The other three events would have to be pretty blatant for them to have a chance at a medal. Same for the team event, but given the format it could screw Canada's small chance at a bronze against Japan.

Yeah, that's not a happy call in my opinion based on his "famous" past ..... Moreover, China has more than enough 1st class figure skating judges. So they could have easily chosen anyone else ....

The problem is that federations chose the judges they send when they win a spot on the panel, and obviously for federations that have skaters in contention the first criteria is who is going to advantage their skaters the most, not who is the best judge. As long as national federations pick judges this will be a problem.

Be careful though. Sui Wenjing is known to have had lingering injury problems for years now. Clean skates are not a guarantee for them.

No Tim Singer for the luge :(

 

Damn. I love Olympics, but I hate this broadcasting thing meaning right at the most important moment, we often can't enjoy the commentators we enjoy throughout the season. I want luge with Tim Singer and nobody else. I want bobsleigh and skeleton with Martin Haven and John Morgan and nobody else. During the summer, I want the mountainbiking with Bart Brentjens and the other guy who's name I forget but who's voice I strongly have in my mind. And so on.
