I thought for USA it was Diggins, one of the gals who won gold in cross country

It’s Diggins.

That's cool. I think I jumped the gun on that one ^_^

You realize the thing about time zones, right?

Already missing the Olympics...

Womens mass start skate was good competition. New event.

I'm hoping the Russians can dig deep and somehow find it within themselves to beat mighty Germany.

The Germans were trying to keep it interesting until the Ruskies decided they wanted to go into the period break with the lead. That was an absolute laser shot from the Russian defenseman.

I'm always sad when the Olympics end. The two weeks just go by so quickly.

All the Curling coverage made these Olympics seem longer than normal
Sorry it made it "HARD" to watch

**From_the_NEK** · 02-24-2018, 11:14 PM

Tied up!

**RShea** · 02-24-2018, 11:45 PM

So what are the opinions of Mike Tirico as the main host. Have to say much better to listen too than Lauer, not as much of a polarizing figure as Costas either (seems people either love or really hate Costas).

**Meanfruit** · 02-25-2018, 12:13 AM

Holy fuck, 2 goals in 10 seconds!?

This is a fun game to watch.

**Meanfruit** · 02-25-2018, 12:20 AM

What? Germany up? With 3 to go, no way!

Wow! Great patience on that shot. This should be an interesting last 3 minutes.

**Meanfruit** · 02-25-2018, 12:21 AM

Terrible call. Terrible

Tirico and Bode are the best things NBC has done since...huh. Yeah, it's been a while. That dude with Bode needs to be relieved of his responsibility to think up nonsense to say. He got to be hard to listen to.

Agreed. Tirico seemed to be genuinely enjoying himself and he did not act like a smug douche like Lauer and Costas often were.

Edit: I hope someone wins this game soon. I'm supposed to get up and PLAY some hockey in less than 6 hours.
