Bode Miller is just a terrible announcer. The most miserable, negative, monotone person I've ever seen call a sporting event.

That was great. I was calling it like a horse race in the living room.

It's just remarkable how utterly disinterested he sounds. After his partner mentioned that the one skier could become only the fourth ever to get three gold medals in one Olympics, he just mumbled something like "Well, normally I wouldn't think a skier like him would really have a chance in these conditions, but he's pretty good." He shts on everybody and everything.

Then the French dude after him completely bit it on the rim of the pipe.

Is he the guy that broke his pelvis?

A coworker mentioned someone broke a pelvis but couldn't remember what they were doing.

Post by **blackjack68** » Wed Feb 21, 2018 11:15 pm

He was hollering pretty good, so it could’ve been him.

Apparently in the ski cross one dude broke his shin and another broke their pelvis. That might be it. Pelvis guy went off a jump and went flying.

With that shot in the shootout, I swear that was Phil Kessel wearing his sisters jersey.

He makes Joe Buck sound like Doc Emrick, but the guy is freakishly right about everything that happens.

Norwegian commentators said they thought something was up with her skis during the individual downhill since she was losing time during glide parts where she shouldn't have been. Turns out they got stripped or something early in the run. Too bad, but them's the breaks I suppose.

The shootout winner was filthy

Stayed up to watch that hockey game and it delivered.

Tied it up with about 7 to go. Scoreless OT and then a six round shootout. (Terrible way to decide Gold, though.)

USA! USA! USA!

SHUSTER!!!

Post by **shafnutz05** » Thu Feb 22, 2018 8:46 am

Shuster going for the gold!!! Unreal. What a redemption story...beating Canada twice?!
