darksabre Posted February 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Why do they call them, the Olympic athletes of Russia? Is it something political? Russia the country was banned for this Olympics because of their nationwide doping conspiracy, but a lot of the clean athletes appealed and won the ability to participate under the Olympic flag but not Russia. Swamp with the hair trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 They shouldn't have the title of Russia in their name then. They should be called something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 i am really enjoying the olympics but NBC is making it really hard. they are running it across three channels so far, and i havent been able to find a schedule as to which event is on which channel. i was looking for mens hockey and found the schedule online, but it didnt mention the channels. i found the first 3 rounds so i can tape them but i think it should have been easier to find. also the olympic channel on fios doesnt seem to have any competitions that i found.

pi2000 Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Really? How often do you see luge on TV? How often do you want to see luge on TV? Every 4 years in overkill IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogre Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 How often do you want to see luge on TV? Every 4 years in overkill IMO. I grew up roughly 45 min north of Lake Placid and was 8yrs old when the ‘80 games were going on. The hockey was what drew me into the games where I first saw the luge. In. . Sane. I could watch all day long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubkev Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Slalom delayed until FRIDAY. ugh. I just screamed at the TV. First I'm pissed at the Olympics for being 14 hours ahead. 2nd I'm pissed at this horsesh!t schedule. 3rd 8m pissed that I can't watch hardly any events live. And 4th I'm pissed because in 4 years it's in fcuking Beijing...a-fcuking-gain! And those coke commercials with the pour shots sound like someone taking a piss. It is not appetizing.
