Am I the only person here that is watching these damn Winter Olympics?
 

I have spent countless hours watching Ice Dancing and Curling and a fuck load of other things that shouldn't be considered sports and not one of my fellow NCGs even mentions it. its captivating. and boring. all at once.

what are you people doing with your lives that could possibly be more important than watching Bobsledding?

for real though that USA vs Russia hockey game was off the hook



rocking with alpine skiing right now

this is still a thing?

Nba allstar game>

They shouod have a boxing event in ice skates......





Curling is dope THO

please. the obscure countries playing 1-0 hockey games were better than that "all-star" game.

USA gonna get the gold in hockey tho. lol latvia

I've been watching here & there.. the hockey game was dope.

World cup will be dope coming up.

I'm watching it. Not too big on hockey tbh, probably going to watch the finals or something tho'.

i watrch hockey and occasionally curling

hockey hockey hockey

Word at curling @Diode. Norway be slacking this time around tho', the team we had 4 years ago was siiiiick. I was watching that stuff live to watch how the other teams were doing and geekin' out on that shit.

Slopestyle and anything involving acrobatics and huge jumps is my shit tho'. Skiing is cool enough when we own the fuck out of everyone else. But generally I'm a bad norwegian at that too, cuz I don't follow it as closely as my fellow natives.

It has been highly entertaining

I was more entertained by the Negroes Basketball League today though


Great allstar performance.

The Winter Olympics are for couples, really.

lolol @ usa taking gold in hockey tho... best joke in disc in ages

canada looks like SHIT son!

Canada winning gold in hockey

It's a forgone conclusion.. Any ice is home ice

lol @ that when canada goes to OT with dirt people teams

we comin for that gold just like it was junior worlds

fuck youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

hey remember the last time a canadian team came within an asshair's distance of breathing on lord stanley's cup? lololololololololol

I'm not even a fan of any Canadian team tho.. So there's that

I'll root for the Canadians when we're in the playoffs but I don't really care, ima Tampa bay fan


Hey.. Remember last time usa played Canada.. Ooohhhhh yeeeeeaaaaaaa

you do understand that over half the team for both sides is different 4 years later, yes?

Both teams still have the core guys that were there last time

If we had stamkos.. This wouldn't even be a discussion

if your aunt had a dick she'd be your uncle.

US didn't go to OT with dirt people.

JUST SAYING.

Canada is barely in bye round lmao.

the couples skating was a lot more impressive than i expected it to be.

I hadn't smoked in about 6 months, and did for the first time right before watching it, though.

the USA vs. Russia hockey game was strong too

lmao russia gets bodied by Finland ?!

usa gold.

you barely beat latvia.

just a head's up in case that thought left your mind at any point today.

So far, so good. Keep em' comin'!

Hope u got a list of excuses for when u lose like u do with every team u root for

Alias revealed.

Rookie game > All Star game.

Bosh hitting 2 from half court on the bounce was more entertaining than the All Star game.

nobody cares about the nba.

the nhl is outdrawing the nba right now. serious.

Really?

Considering the strikes in recent years I woulda thought that would have hurt interest heavily.

I think you're winding me up. I fuck with Hockey but I find that hard to believe.

It did.

The NBA is just that awful right now.

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-pu...0461--nhl.html

The NBA's ratings destroy the NHL. In-game attendance is being driven to irrelevance.

The only reason this is the case is because ESPN hates hockey and it's relegated to one game/night on NBCSN which many households don't even get. NHL Network doesn't even carry games half the time and even less households get that.

This is all Bettman's fault after the 04-05 lockout, of course.

But if that hadn't happened I don't think it's a stretch to think things would be closer to even.

Over here in England you get atleast 2 NBA games a night thanks to BT sport.

ESPN have gone the College route showing tons of games a week.

College ball gets more play over here than NHL.

yeah. again, espn has had a vendetta ever since nbc won the contract.

Why a Vendetta though?

I woulda thought it would be a simple case of no network wanting to touch the NHL with a 10 foot barge pole considering the striking makes them a liability.

Who would want to sign a multi million contract with them when a broadcaster can't even rely on the league to see out a whole season.

The NBA has had the same issue as has MLB and NFL sooooo... ?

No, ESPN lost the bidding war to NBC and lost their shit over it. ESPN isn't used to not getting what they want.
