Notice how they changed the figure skating judging after America cheated...
haha just kidding, but they did change the judging.

Ono fell this time guys. He tried to get ahead of this Chinese competitor, and ended up falling and then messed up the race for this other guy as well. I think he was Dutch. Anyway, Ono didn't have to get ahead of that Chinese skater, since top 2 get to head to the next round anyway.
Katrina (LeMay Doan, gold medalist for Canada) co-hosts the speed skating events, and the info she gives us is really interesting. Particularily about her former competitors, haha.

Oh, yeah. I was going to say...
I love the Winter Olympics! Much more than the summer olympics, because Canada gets more medals. The only thing I'll watch in the Summer Olympics is the fencing, since we finally qualified last time around, and came in 4th.

Anyone got any good links to the Shaun White halfpipe gold medal run? I watched it once, but I want to see it again.
He should have won by an even bigger margin in my opinion. No1 had anything on that guy, he is the besssssst.

I wasn't crazy on this years pictograms to be honest. Perhaps they will grow on me.

Hahaha, check this out:
http://www.cbc.ca/olympics/sport…Apparently the women's hockey team is scoring too much.
w00t! Two more medals (either silver or gold) are guaranteed for Canada within the next hour.
Hey, it's a big deal for us. The government needs to give more money to the athletes so that they can do their sport full-time, not part-part-time.

I nearly fell over when a Canadian Commentator said Michelle Quan had to pull out of competition because "her groin was just not responding"
- Jaline0
hahahaha, I know fusion! I absolutely love those Canadian commentators. They are always so unintentionally hilarious. And get overly excited whenever something Canadian occurs. I can just imagine them falling out of their seats up wherever they're sitting and watching. It's great.

w00t!
Canada got to 24 medals, almost beat the USA, who have 25. Germany is still at the top with 29.
We have 13 athletes who came in 4th, and 8 who came in 5th, which is the most close finishes by any country. This = tons of medals in Vancouver.
