I see the Russians are competing under the name Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) again like they did in Tokyo. They can't use their real name or flag because they practice doping. If any other team was doping they'd be kicked out but the Russians seem to be special.

I'll write it off on my taxes (just because I can), so you clowns will actually be paying me to watch the Olympics.

Have a nice day.



Same here, wife and kids and I really enjoy watching curling, biathlon is ok, same with hockey. Only watch the USA compete.

haven't watched a moment of any Olympics in probably 30 years. Just don't care. Interesting that the 'host' country is using draconian measures to lock down any comments THEY deem negative toward China. The US Olympic organization is demanding American participants behave. The sponsoring companies are demanding the same, and want the participants to keep their mouths shut even when home after the event.

That is incorrect... The Biathlon starts today... Peacock records all events and puts them up as tabs (just like picking a movie on Netflix etc.).

As for the biathlon or skiing not actually being a sport. Personally I disagree...

The origin of the biathlon is at the very core of combat mountain warfare... i.e. I cannot personally shoot worth a chit with a heart rate of 180 beats per second... and do admire soldiers and athletes that can.

-----------------------------------------------------------

As for Peacock and Netfix et al...

We paid $5 for a month of Peacock to watch the Olympics...

Netflix et al is free for us. The only other thing we pay for (or buy) is Shakespeare etc. My wife loves Shakespeare and "collects" Hamlet.

I collect guns

We are happily married.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Nope. No NFL, no NBA, no NFL no professional sports period....just a bunch of kids playing a game...if they actually aired the shooting sports for more than 20 minutes I might consider it, but they don't so I won't.


I sure could go for some $2.50/gal gas and a mean tweet!

Yes. Don't like that the downhill is only man made snow but those skiing are going over 70mph down this narrow slope. I think it's freaking incredible. Looking forward to the USA and Canada Hockey rematch.. Me and my son have been joking about curling and how that is the main event, pure athletes...The girl from the Polish mixed Team sounded like she was giving her teammate Hell...we laughed and laughed. Ski jumping today, flying through the air very cool IMO. I enjoyed the biathlon.

Yes, I'm watching the events and athletes..don't care for the communist governments.
