I thought the refs were bad in the NFL. But these judge's are pathetic sobs in the Olympics.

It’s always been a joke that has not improved much over the years, on top of that we send the woke morons to talk bad about us I’d rather lose then listen to the ungrateful social justice warriors droning on and on. Talk that BS when you get back not when it’s on our dime.

I have been enjoying watching the Norwegian Klaebo crushing everyone in cross country skiing. A generational talent we likely won't see again for 50 years. He already has two gold medals and could very well add four more. Incredible amount of power.

Olympic judges have been bad since I can remember, and that's a long time.

the fact that idiots competing for our country continue to disparage the country and all of those who have fought and given the ultimate sacrifice for them to wear the American flag, that did it for me. aint watching them.

I'm far above average fitness level and in great shape but if I tried to keep with that guy ide fall down and promptly die after 200 yards, he's an absolute machine.

While I agree that the US should have won that event I don't know if I would fully say they stick it to you every chance the get. lol
You did win the team figure skating gold, but then again there are likely people who will say they just gave Amber Glenn such a high score to push the team over the top because she ain't straight. lol Heck, some in here likely won't even acknowledge her performance because of that fact.

I've never liked the judged events, to subjective. Timed or head to head events are more exciting. Speed skating, downhill skiing, luge etc are fun to watch.

USA women's Hockey team has scored 20 goals and given up 1! As stated above the endurance that many of these atheletes have is really amazing. We are seeing a few more USA atheletes compete better in the endurance events but we still have a long way to go compared to many other countries. Our WI speed skater is really fast. He will try for 3 more golds.

Canada sets the gold standard and they have had USA's number in the games that count. In the recent 4 Nations tournament, USA beat Canada in the earlier round but Canada prevailed in the championship game. In the 2010 Olympics, the USA beat Canada in the group stage but Canada prevailed in the gold medal game. Canada comes through in the clutch and they are the team to beat.
