Which Korea?
Both N and S Korea are in this.
I'm guessing S Korea.

I don't really watch the Olympics except for the opening ceremony though.

im kinda sad apollo didnt get his 2nd or 3rd gold medal, but silver is pretty good.

everyone knows you only watch the winter olympics for hockey.

uh its always south korea. You only hear news about north korea if the subject is about nukes, communism, or kim jong-il.

And Korea should have swept the podium. Ohno doesn't deserve his medal, he only got it through luck (as in 2 people ahead of him just fell down 2 seconds before the end).

Ouch on that crash in the women sking just now, but he did good, the 2 ppl crashing are there fault. He got first from 4th in the other run.

regardless of how he got his medal, its getting annoying with the american commentators glorifying how he's as great as bonni blair. 2 gold medals and a couple silver and bronzes sprinkled in is not the same as 5 gold medals.

watching and enjoying. shitty weather in Vancouver.

anyone waiting for the snowboarding? only a couple more days till they start. Go shaun white

As much as I want the USA to win... Canada will probably woop that azz. They are stacked.

Yay, Slovakia won the first gold medal since the dividing of Czechoslovakia in 93. Woot

Apollos first race was amazing. He was cruising at the back for the main part, then the last 3 laps just raced past the others.

I agree, although many russian's got caught with the drug tests....

Russians will dominate, wouldnt be surprised if they won the hockey hands down too
