  1. I think this podium was predicted in the 2018 Pyongchang thread. Next quad should be a little more interesting as 5-7 of the top 10 teams are retiring so we will see a reshuffling of the standings.
  2. Why is NBC showing the 5th & 7th place finishers but not the 3rd place routines? Wouldn't the tie make for better TV???
  3. Not to mention all three of AC's siblings have been productive members of society despite growing up in the same house with the same messed up parents.
  4. Andrew and David dated long distance for 4-6 months or so and neither were exclusive. Andrew would not give David his phone number (he did not want Norman to answer) or address but would send David postcards from everywhere he went.
  5. It makes no sense - the gold medal game starts in 10-15 minutes and will be long over by 4 am EST.
  6. Unfortunately, Scott and Taneth talked through most of the performance so we could not hear the song..... Why do we even have commentary for the gala - add a ticker with the skaters name and call it a day.
  7. It sure sounded like the crowd thought Med was underscored.
  8. NBCSN showed every skater live. They would break away during the warmup/zamboni time and show some hockey or curling. Maybe people thought they weren't coming back to skating because of that?
  9. NBCSN announced at the start of the night that they were airing the entire ladies program. There was no need for any viewer to change the channel unless you wanted to watch a different sport. As a west coast viewer, I am loving the east coast feed. Everything is done by 10ish and then they start it over again so I can catch what I missed while commuting.
  10. Is anyone else have trouble accessing videos on the app or nbcolympics.com? When it tries to authenticate my xfinity plan, it says I need to upgrade to a plan with the USA Network even though my current plan includes that network. Reloading the app did not help. I can get around it 30 min at a time via incognito mode but that really annoying and I shouldn't have to resort to workarounds given how much I pay xfinity every month. Any suggestions?
  11. It's like a sitcom laugh track over every element.
  12. I heard Mike Tirico telling viewers to find the full pairs program on NBCSN after the US skated as NBC switched back to snowboarding. They may have also mentioned it at the start of the program but I was not home yet.
  13. I found Jane Ridley's The Heir Apparent to be fascinating and quite an easy read..
  14. The melody is familiar enough that I wish it was sung in Korean or both Korean and English. Bridge the east and west a bit.
  15. The number of slots for each discipline is determined by placement at last years World Championships. The US did not do well enough to qualify for more than one pairs slot.
  16. I would not read much into that. French law requires women to use their maiden name when filing lawsuits. William had to use his legal surname of Mountbatten-Windsor as the French don’t recognize titles.
  17. How many of the jurors ever owned or even worn a pair of gloves? Most Angelinos never have a need form them, have no idea how certain fabrics are supposed to fit or what factors effect the fit. This is a part of the country where a not insignificant portion of the adult population doesn't own long pants.
  18. He is a regular commentator on FoxNews regarding crime stories including racially charged ones like Ferguson, Mo.
  19. The cops in the Rodney King case were LAPD but the jury that acquitted them were Simi Valley residents. That jury was pulled from Det. Vannader's neighbors, the parents of his kid's friends, etc and Cochran wanted OJ's jury to equate Vannader with Rodney King's jury. Slightly OT: It also happens to be where the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library (opened in 1991) is located celebrating the life of the man who popularized the term "welfare queen" and kicked off his 1980 Presidential (General Election) Campaign in the very same tiny Mississippi town where where three civil rights workers were murdered in the 60s.
