Yes, the US team is bad, but Norway is executing some fairly difficult shots perfectly.

I like watching Hansen's pre-luge dance.

She looked like she blacked out rag doll style then they let her finish down the ways.

Yep, she was out cold. I'm interested in when she returns. Anyone know if she is entered in any of the other snowboard events? I don't think the US medical team would let her continue.

NBC Gold Zone is awesome. Olympic take on NFL Red Zone with the same host.

Why did this update take so long to find its way to me. This is great.

 

Too bad events will end shortly.

Bob Costas's eyes are getting a break tonight, and Matt Lauer is stepping in to host the NBC coverage.

Online in the mornings (ie live). Google it.

Had he not landed so low on the last jump, I bet he medals. He blew it.

Shuster won a game!!! The US team played well, but man Denmark misplayed nearly every single shot.

Is anyone else using the NBC Sports Live Extra app on Android? I swear it's not showing all the live games. I can watch the USA Women's hockey game live on my iPad, but on Android it doesnt show an option. I've seen a similar issue when trying to find Curling matches.

 

I did a little more looking around. It was listing the Women's hockey game as Tuesday night... even though it's live right now. And the USA Men's game as 6:30 PM on Wednesday, not 6:30am on Thursday. Everything looks just fine on my iPad. So weird.

US Speed skaters blaming Under Armor suits for their slow times.

Interesting I obviously don't know near enough about speed skating to know if that is a legit excuse but in a sport where tenths of seconds are huge it could actually make a real difference.

Ski slopestyle is awesome. So much better than snowboarding surprisingly

I wonder if that will hold true for half pipe as well.

Early on they were saying how awesome they are.

Yah it was all "wow developed by Lockheed Martin!"

I think I've narrowed down the US curling problems to two major issues:

 

1) They play poorly when they have the red stones.

2) They play poorly when they have the yellow stones.

The USA speed skaters are blaming their new suits for their poor performance. Please.

Might be bulls*** but in a sport where tenths of seconds separate the top skaters little things can make a big difference and it would explain why literally every single USA speed skater is under performing.
