  1. Good job so far keeping things cohesive between the 2 locations. LA2028.. learn from this!
  2. I'm impressed so far. Cool effects with the colors and the paint tubes
  3. For those who didn't catch the news.. the Canada-Finland hockey game that got postponed today is re-scheduled for next Friday, February 12th at 14:30 at Rho Arena
  4. I don't buy that she's doing this just to start the race if she thinks she won't be competitive. We'll probably know more after the training run and far be it from me to know how that's going to work with a torn ACL, but if she knows she can't do it, she'll give that spot to another skier
  5. What's interesting is that in 2006, there were high hopes for the US team and they did well, but a lot of the big stars - think Bode Miller - under-performed so it gave off the impression that it was a bad Olympics for the Americans
  6. I'm not into doing all the research to make the full predictions. All I know is that there's a decent chance of seeing a new record for most gold medals by Team USA!
  7. Definitely didn't expect them to stretch all the way to New York. Figured they could mostly keep it in and around California and the Southwest. I guess I'm going to need to go to an Olympic soccer game or 2!
  8. I saw it got mentioned upthread, but in graphic form...
  9. I'm also reminded as I know Canadians are painfully aware that if figures hadn't been a part of the 1984 Olympics, then Brian Orser would have won gold. Hamilton could have finished 4th in the free skate that year and still beat Orser who finished 7th in the figures
  10. The competitors found it boring as hell and it made for terrible television (that is if the networks even bothered to show it). As much as it put the "figure" in figure skating, it's one of those relics of the sport and Olympic competition that no one really misses
  11. Should be some really cool visuals, especially for night games
  12. It's funny to think back how revolutionary it was for Calgary to have speed skating at an indoor venue, but I agree this is a good solution going forward for future host cities, especially in Europe where the games are likely to be more spread out where they could find a large arena/stadium to use as a temporary venue
  13. Looks great, especially knowing that it's a temporary venue. Low ceilings will likely be great for the skaters
