Total medals is the most important thing.Then crushing competition. 3d is projecting brotherhood.

Total medals is just a tie-breaker. It's all about the gold. Get the gold and then you have power.

The Olympics should be about kissing as much international ass as possible (Sportsmanship).

The Winter Olympics Medal Count Thread
Thought I'd do just one thread on this rather than both Official & Unofficial. But this needs to be addressed as a serious issue. Bigger than Religion, bigger than Politics, although to be honest, it's easy to confuse the three.
When that German hag is screaming at her curling stone to get in the oven, I mean lane, I get a little confused as to the true purpose of the Olympics.

It's all about winning medals. I think a score should be tabulated where gold = 3, silver = 2, bronze = 1. Or some other complicated formula that places the US at the top.
I believe the Olympics is an excellent stage for countries to act out their aggressions. For example, the Frogs have been talking a lot of sh!t about us for awhile, knowing there was a huge ocean between us and them. I hope those pusssies have a hockey team.

I simply can't understand why the U.S. hasn't been more aggressive promoting W.O. sports that favor it.
Why is there no ice football? Or ice basketball? We'd absolutely school those little asian bastards and the French in those events. And why do they use those silly little rifles in the biathalon? If the athletes weren't limited to conventional weapons, we'd sweep in that.

It really isn't fair that the US is considered on "equal footing" with the little countries of the world on Olympic committees. I think the US should have as much say as all of Europe put together. The Olympic Committee likes to wield their power to belittle Americans. Making our President go all the way to Switzerland to tell him, "You came in DFL in voting for the 2016 games. But thanks for coming." Bush would have suckerpunched 4 disgusting Euros and been on Airforce One just in time for the bombs to start dropping.

It sucks when something isn't controllable through money or military force. But if women's curling teaches us one thing, it's that the Olympics aren't about fairness and that one in three women curlers are kind of hot. Ok, two things.
The Chinese women's curling team has gone from non-existent to best in 7 years by sending a bunch of slaves to Canada to do nothing but practice or face the punishment. They're doing the same thing with golfers in California. The U.S. is about to be overwhelmed. In 8 years the Chinese will win 85% of all Olympic medals.

I think all of the judged events should be thrown out of medal count. Why is the ski jump a judged event? Who over goes the furthest and lands wins. Or the mogul skiing. Just time that race. If someone is ballsy enough to take a straight shot down the hill with no turns, that deserves a medal. I will admit that the half pipe was legit, but you get the feeling that Shawn White only needed to stay upright to get the medal because of reputation. All methods of figure skating are unwatchable.

But think of how less interesting it would be without the politics of judging. I agree with you if fairness is the only objective. But this is about money and entertainment. All sports need stars. Snowboarding knows it needs this guy and the judging is there to crush all threats to his stardom. Just like golf. This is how we can relate to the Olympics.
Save your energy for figuring out how they got Lindsey to win the downhill. Although it seems pretty obvious insofar as she was the only one that had a real pair of downhill skis (mens).

We have been getting a bunch of 100 reply threads these days, and not all from Liarry. Maybe this once legendary thread indicator should be revised, kind of like how 500 HRs used to get you in the baseball HoF. A Pingman swing video tops 100? Time to re-evaluate.

Nothing the guy did specifically, but it was certainly a strange choice for a suit. It had abs lines drawn on it. Of course the guy started and finished DFL. I really believe you need to have a bit of Asian blood in you if you hope to be competitive in the short track speed skating events.

I was watching the highlights the other day and I heard a refreshingly real commentator during the womens downhill. Not sure who the skiier was, but one of them had a big tumble and the commentator said, in what sounded like a scandinavian accent, "Oh she's known for crashing when the pressure is highest". No sign of sympathy or explanation of how it may have happened, just straight out with the choker tag on international television. Nance could learn something from that.

The falls involving lacerations and drama is beyond anything I expected from speedskating. I knew "men's" figure skating was a gay clusterf.uck, but until this Olylmpics I had no idea the same applied to short track speed skating. I probably should have when Apollo Ono was on Dancing With The Stars which I was forced to watch.
Ratings will plummet in future Olympics when the Chinese are sweeping almost everything.

Maybe they should introduce ths type of judging in golf. At the end of the tournament they could all post their scores, then it could go to the judges to decide the result. For example, you would obviously get shots added for having hybrids, shovels or Scotty Cameron putters, and could get shots takn off for having blades (extra for GFF) and bagging a 2 iron. I think this would be a better way of identifying the best golfers than just a straight up stroke event.
P.S. It goes without saying that in such an event long putters would be penalised so heavily as to make their continued use untenable.

Good idea, NaH. What would you be starting at, assuming a 1 stroke penalty for all of those transgressions? I would be at level par. +1 for the hybrid, but -1 for the GFF.

Maybe you could even add other stuff besides equipment. You could add a degree of diffculty element, like getting shots taken off for bombing driver off every tee, 300 plus yard drives, and going for par 5s in two.
I think the ratings would improve if they changed to this judging system. It would hound the boring, weak short knocker hackers like Nick O'Hern and Zach Johnson off the tour, and guarantee last day groupings of guys like Tiger, JD, Bubba and Boo. You can't tell me tournament golf wouldn't be more exciting with those guys slugging it out for the title each week.

Style points have got to account for something. Hitting a massive flop shot instead of a faggy bump and run would not cost a stroke.

Excellent point HB, although you may have just unwittingly exposed the first hole in my argument. Rewarding flamboyant, agressive, low percentage, and possibly even flat out dumb, play ahead of boring, conservative play (what could sometimes be defined as good course management) sounds great in theory, but in practice it may result in some unwanted by-products, like having to endure the shitt eating grin of Moobs on the winning dais far too regularly for any reasonable man's comfort.

A few WO observations
Caught some of the action last night. Man that two man luge has to be the gayest fagfest ever. Two queers in tights lying down on top of each other. Then I watched some curling. That has got to be the stupidest sport I've ever seen but the hotties in the Russian team kept me interested. Also watched some speed skating, ice hockey and Cross Country skiing. The only thing I genuinely enjoyed as a sporting spectacle was the downhill skiing. Reminded me that the winter has something to look forward too.
I chose the road less traveled.
Now where the f#ck am I?

One thing that has me completely baffled at the Winter Olympics is South Korea sitting in third position on the medal count. I'm assuming it must be because of ice skating, as I don't think South Korea has snowfields.
I concur that being a poo puncher would be compulsory for the 2 man luge.

I know little to nothing about curling but I do have a question. Do any countries have facilities where the public can go curl? Like a bowling ally? Is it a sport only played in the Olympics?

They control the blow and go-s (massage parlors) in Vancouver so it's really not surprising. That blond american women's curler needs to be banged right there on the ice. I volunteer.

I'm almost ashamed of the Americans (of which I'm one) for not letting the Canadians win on their own ice, in their own country and at their own sport. Talk about being ungracious towards your host. Picture how miserable it feels to be a Canadian today. Yet they are a fine people and don't deserve to feel that way. Except their French minority, assuming they're anything like the real thing.
But today, trapped in front of the TV, I'm listening to the Melrose analysts make excuses and show derision towards the Americans. I hope he doesn't speak for the others because it show true classlessness.
Even the evil Soviets behaved like men, in defeat. And they lost as the best professionals ever, to true amateurs in such an awful and humiliating way it brought down the Berlin Wall and ultimately the Evil Empire.

While the "miracle" of the 1980s team can never be outdone again because of the professionals being allowed to play today, it would still be sweet to see the USA team with the gold again. There was a slight twinge of remembrance to that 1980 team whenever the Americans beat the Candadians the other day. Slight twinge . . . . .

I think the biggest boner of the Olympics so far has to be the Russian dance skating pair that tried to skate an Aboriginal culture dance. I'm thinking there was a lot of vodka drinking that went on whenever they put that routine together . . . . .

If you watch too much of the ice dancing, you can end up with shame for being of the same species as the dancers, particularly the "males."
Each Olympics brings more sports that are headscratchers. Speaking of which, right now they're trying to build up a women's hockey game between U.S. and Sweden as a grudge match. I hope they can mike some of the players so we can witness some real catiness.

Nothing that historic. Only that the Swedes beat them last time. That may not seem like cause for grudge to us, but they're women. HB raises other valid points.

I hope he is not a poser. I have to confess that I had my doubts about him ever being straight after the short program whenever he broke down and wept like a little girl after seeing the results of his great score.
I saw him interviewed the day after his medal and I remember thinking he was cool guy. Then I pushed that below the surface and remembered how much I love to b.ang chicks. But this renews my faith and alleviates my obviously completely unwarranted concerns.
Don't fault him for crying at that moment. He had to have been surrounded by virtual clouds of estrogen from the other skaters.

This is where you and I differ. I want to destroy our competition in humiliating fashion, possibly burning decades worth of diplomacy and goodwill in the process. It's all about the gold. I have been literally driving around for the better part of the day looking for a Canuck to face-punch.
I guess that's why you'll never be a true Olympian.

Well, those italian women in USA uniforms are literally kicking the s.hit out of those poor Swedish girls, 7-1 halfway through the third. Never underestimate the power of female grudge. I've been hoping to see the gloves come off and shirts pulled over the Swedish girls heads, but so far no such luck.

Well, OK, then, but can we at least rape and pillage after the devastation?

Before, during, and after. Call it my Olympic matchplay strategy.

The Americans are landing the haymaker and it's now 9-1. Maybe those of you who know hockey can help me out. All of the girls have cages attached to their helmet protecting their faces. None of the men do. That suggests all of the women have faces worth protecting. But I can plainly see that's not true. It's not making sense.

Sorry Fred3, I had to make that other post so I'll bump this again.
Thanks Again,

Your mom gets plenty of attention from the laundry machine.

Fred3 - I knew you'd come through. All this time I thought you didn't hate me.
I have a few other threads I've started recently that you might want to look at when you get a chance.
What a great day.

Gold = Champion
Silver = Loser
Bronze = Thanks for coming out
Gold medals are all that matter.
Don't look now, but we actually have 8 of 'em.

14 Golds and a GR binding poll.
We really ARE the champions.

Technically speaking, since the Canadians hosted the Olympics, then Canadian votes in this poll have to be ignored. AND, also, since Californians' votes have not been enough to save their own state's economy, then their wisdom in these voting procedures have to be ignored as well. Sorry, but you have no votes in your favor here. The United States set a new standard by breaking the record in total medals gained in a Winter Olympics. That is the most impressive and they are the true champions of this Olympics.

You can't invalidate a binding GR poll. If you can't agree with that I'm gonna have to start calling you a noob... this is a well known, undisputed fact.
Congrats on being the most consistent runners-up in this year's Olympics. Not to mention having the most bronze medal "also-rans" in these Olympics.
I believe the expression is "Thanks for coming out."
All in good fun... kudos for winning the total medal count. If it couldn't be Canada, you guys were our second choice...
Own the podium.

You forgot an even more valid GR tradition -- giving reasons for invalidating a GR poll if it doesn't turn out your way.
You've been away for a while so I thought I would remind you . . . . .

Also, while you were away, we designated the "Newbie" level as being anyone under 2,000 posts regardless of time joined.
What do you think about that . . . . . . . Jr.?

I'm related to an Olympic Gold Medalist.
That's what I have to say about that.
BTW - I know the limit imposed was actually 1000 posts... Home-Slicer would be devastated to learn that he is still a noob on this board. Break it to him gently...
