This happened overnight but there was a sweet photo finish in men's snowboard cross

Our mens curling team is badass. The hair and ball caps alone. The dude with the tats and all that 80’s heavy metal hair is next level. The Swedes are now kicking butt. Damnit!

Holy shit.  Old boy for China just somersaulted his landing in the skiing team aerials.  USA now in gold position headed to the final round.

That was pretty bad ass. 

[Hook1997 5397]

Shawn White last runs ever, in the finals starting now.

22.5 feet in the air. Fuck 

[Sgt Hulk 13819]

Watching the 16 year old rip down the pipe in the Olympics while bitching at my 16 year old to brush his fucking teeth 

[GopherRock 1765]

That last guy from Japan is sick of silver and clearly intended to win this competition right then and there. 

[tokamak 6433]

Holy shit these two brothers from Japan are absurd.

[Buzzrock 14936]

Big three point end for US Curling, takes the lead

[The Ace of Aces 5193]

NBC should try to fit in a commercial within a commercial. Jesus Christ. 

[crash_davis 23114]

Bullshit score

[Tailgate 3022]

Dude was robbed

[AUS-97HORN 11813]

The last time I saw an Olympic commentor be that confused by a score in a competition, we were still preparing for war with the Soviet Union in 1988

[Blotto 23562]

Lulz at the announcer talking up that run as something that may never be equaled again, and the score is 2nd place. I agree that the dude got fucked.

[tokamak 6433]

Yeah the commentator was not having that shit

[tokamak 6433]

Damn he’s still going hard on the judges

[smuggs 9353]

This announcer is going all in. Good for him. Kid got jobbed.

Now 24.4. Holy shit

[tokamak 6433]

Kaishu was like fuck medals just watch me get huge air

[crash_davis 23114]

lulz. fucking US judge

[crash_davis 23114]

in what fucking world did the US judge see that run and think, meh...89. fuck that asshole.

[WBT 20649]

The announcers harping on the low score being dropped...that's why it's dropped.  The differences that matter were their 2nd and 3rd lowest scores, not the one outlier 89 from the US judge.

[pops 7006]

End of the run for white. But damn.... that aussie is fucking legit

Well, technically I think both the 89 and the 90 we're bullshit outliers. One of those is changed to like a 93 and everything is different. 

[Hook1997 5397]

Damn that sucks!!  White will not medal. 

[AUS-97HORN 11813]

interesting that the commentor thought a 98 was a guarantee and only one 96  and one gave a 95.

even if the US judge gave him a 92 it still wouldnt have mattered  because Canada and Suitzerland gave him a 90.   that would have only increased his score by 1  whole point. 

the refs big timed his ass... he wasnt a big name so he didnt get a big score.

I thought there was an 89, 90, and a 91?  Maybe I misread it, I was only half paying attention.

who gives a shit if it's drop. it's a fucking travesty that we are even having a conversation about an 89, 90 whatever for that run.

[tokamak 6433]

Let’s fucking do this Ayumu.

96, 95, 92, 90. 90, 89

 

I think 

[crash_davis 23114]

that was a fucking gold medal run. fuck the judges

[tokamak 6433]

Hell yeah. Give him a fucking 100

[AUS-97HORN 11813]

sounds like the judges were told they were about to be fucking lynched if he didnt get the scores 

[pops 7006]

What a run. Well deserved

[WBT 20649]

There it is.  So what was the difference between the 91.75 and the 96?  They both looked similarly high and twisty-flippy to me.

[tokamak 6433]

Left them absolutely no room for fuckery. Best guy won for sure

[Nicole44 22072]

Announcer dude! He’s my favorite! Someone call the authorities there’s been a robbery. Love it. That guy was jobbed. Bullshit.

I’m with the authoritarians on this. 

[hundredTT 578]

Holy shit what a run! Only fitting we have a new GOAT with White exiting. Though I’m sure this kid has been killing it for a while now. Don’t know how that was physically possible. 

[WBT 20649]

Ledeska about to ski in the Super G.  She's the chick who was known as primarily a snowboarder but won the gold in Super G last olympics.

[crash_davis 23114]

fucking awesome. this may the best and most honest commentating i've ever heard. i wonder if NBC will give Todd Richards a taking to. 

 

[smuggs 9353]

Can they fly him back for the Super Bowl with Al and Collinsworth? I’d love to hear that guy step off on some bullshit NFL reffing.

[tokamak 6433]

Yeah he wasn’t beating around the bush

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


Sucks the flying tomato went out on a fall and barely missed the podium. Hell of a run

[WBT 20649]

Schiffren makes it to the bottom without missing a gate but .8 back, not close to medal position. 

Maybe she's over the twisties now and can medal in the combined.

Well he’s in Connecticut so it’s not a terribly far distance.

Thanks to Biles, anytime an olympian goes through a mental funk, we're calling it the "twisties" even if there are no twists involved. I dig it 👌

[WBT 20649]

Schuster picks up 2 in the 9th end to take a 9-7 lead but he had a shot at 3 or 4.
