Would terrify the hell out of me.

If I heard correctly, the announcers said he had lost 20 pounds over the last year or so. I didn't even know he had 20 pounds to spare. Being downhill, I have no clue how weight may affect a skier though.

The color guy announcing biathlon for NBC sounds exactly like Bruce Pearl.

I'd like to see the rest of the world catch up a bit on the women's side, the gulf in class between the USA, Canada, and everyone else is pretty sad. Either one losing to another team would be an unbelievable upset, though I'm rooting for it to happen

Good to know. I take it USA vs Canada would be an ideal gold medal game?

Also, I think Finland is supposed to be the third best women's team and we dominated them in our first game.

The first step is to admit you have a problem.

Yes. Saw it live. My wife and I cracked up. Those were the leaders, so we anticipated a massive human pileup.
