Corvus Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 You know what I don't understand. What is the difference between Pairs Figure Skating and Ice Dancing?It looks the same to me. I wish that the Women's USA Hockey Semi against Sweden was in Primetime, at least 24 was good tonight.BTW yes Schuster you're play has been a disaster. Sorry had to talk to the TV for a second.No jumps in ice dancing. I think thats basically the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRenesis Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 BTW yes Schuster you're play has been a disaster. Seriously, what a train wreck. Ive been DVR'ing what Im missing at work so Im still a couple days behind in coverage but he has really cost the team a shot at a medal with his play alone.

TFoA Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Shuster's last rock ends in complete & utter failure, causing the US to concede for the 2nd time in the day & lose to the China who had only won once. Fitting end for this year's team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 USA's embarrassing 11-5 loss to last place China is in fact a victory for all Americans, as John Shuster has thrown his final rock of these Olympics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Gold for Canada in the Ice Dance ... The last dance was simply memorizing. My jaw hit the floor. No one else was close!I can't stand figure skating, and really know very little about it, but have found myself being just a bit too lazy to get up and find the remote. With that said, however, they were just about to skate when I saw your post that they won and about how good it was so I made sure to pay attention to the entire thing... that really was phenomenal. And the girl is absolutely gorgeous, so I'm not even mad that they beat out the Americans! Ice dancing really isn't that bad... I like it more than actual figure skating. I'm surprised some couples went with the songs they did. Knowing nothing about the sport, it seems like song choice can make or break your chances.

HedleyLamarr Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 This US team had no balls. Sure, Shuster couldn't buy a draw if his life depended on it, but they never took any chances early on in matches. They were never agressive. 2-7 is disappointing, but going down without putting up much of a fight is frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty damn hard to put up a fight after you give it your best, only to see Shuster's fatal late-game errors put your team in an instant 0-4 deathlock.

ninersdd Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I swear when they were interviewing Shuster for the end, it looked like he was part of the Witness Protection Program, covering up his face.

Jigga Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 IIRC, in ice dancing, the pair must be touching the entire time or something like that.

Sport Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 The US women's ice hockey team will play the Canadian women for the gold on Thursday at 6:30. This game should win the gold medal for "least surprising final". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakwood Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 What an ending to the Switzerland-Belarus qualification game!2-2 after 3. 10 minute overtime solves nothing. First Swiss shooter scored, followed by a miss by the frist Belorussian. The 2nd Swiss shooter scored, but was matched by the 2nd Belorussian. The 3rd Swiss shooter missed, but Hiller stopped Sergei Kostitisyn on the final shot. Obviously I'd have liked Sergei to score, but I follow Swiss hockey quite closely, and I love to see them do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfwabel Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 FYI: Tomorrow's USA/SUI game is scheduled to air on NBC (real one) at 3 pm Eastern and Western. The west coast will get this game on tape delay, as well as a gold medal game if the USA is involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
