Snowboard Cross

[dragons08]

what an awesome sport..reminds me of Amp and SSX Tricky (video games)..USA seems to be reperseting well in this!

any one elses thoughts?

[Miss Kitty]

You are right D08. This is the coolest sport. Looks like fun. I still like bobsled better. But you can even make good contact and knock someone out of the race in this one. This is so awesome!

[slorch]

How 'bout the American girl busting her butt today, showing off on her way to the gold... uh...silver medal?

U.S. is about the only country that consistently practices this sport I assume... it was just put in for the U.S. to boost their medal count.

[slorch]

that's what they said about hockey before 1980... except it was for CCCP

[dragons08]

what gets me mad is, the 3 men that made it deep for the us, had to go against eachother..oh well still awesome! i didnt get a chance to watch the girls..anybody know how the USA did?

i bet your wrong...it seemed there was some pretty fierce competition...heck the Seth Westcott almost lost it there, luckily he slingshoted out of one turn, went in hard in the next, and just pulled out in front...

im a gamer, so this sport appeals to me more i guess

[dragons08]

nvm, i got it....ego's...had an interesting expirence with that earlier today..

[Miss Kitty]

We got the silver in the womens. But only because she was showboating because she had such a huge lead and she fell on her butt.

Bad Choice

It is an eye candy sport... I would love to try it someday.

[Miss Kitty]

Well since you are eye candy, I think you should try it and give the ladies something to watch. ;)

[dragons08]

i'll stick with my video game version for now....for some reason, i can see my 150 lbs getting knocked around doing that....still looks like fun though..reminds me of go-kart racing...man havent done that in a few years..i used to own in that, i basically own in racing games :D

[CyFallsMom]

that is the coolest sport!!!! I LOVE it! I think I'm going to plan a skiing trip to Colorado and learn how to snowboard - I know, I know, they just make it look easy:rolleyes: Jacobellis though, what was up with that tonight - why would you be mere yards from winning a gold medal and showboat like that!!! Oh well, Silver is better than nothing at all.

Oh, and if I were 16 again, the Flying Tomato's (just love that nickname) picture would be hanging in my room! He is awesome. He was on Jay Leno last night - too cute that one. Danny Kass is pretty good too but he seems to know it...bugs me.

And, what is up with Johnny Weir (the ice skater) - is he a spoiled diva or what! I was actually glad to see the Russian beat his arrogant butt.

lol... Miss Kitty... if your daughter wasn't older than me I would be working my charm;) :p

[dragons08]

lol... Miss Kitty... if your daughter wasn't older than me I would be working my charm;) :p
the real question is, would that charm be working?

[Miss Kitty]

I thought y'all were the same age.

ice skating..(except speed skating) is soooooo boring...whod want to sit there, and watch a 25 year old guy..in tights and glitter, skate..then watch him cry? its boring as hell....

[dragons08]

seems like just hours ago, 7th graders were trying to pick fights with us..oh wait it did happen!:D

holy crap hahahahahahahahaha funniest thing ever..

were playing football a couple of us (like 8 sophmores)..and some 7th graders show up, wanting to play, and i guess they caused problems or something the week before (i wasnt there, i was busy) so some of us were like no, not again..so they just stand there making fun of us, we ignore htem for hte most part..then we feel the need to just start saying stuff back...the 7th grader is like..'are you guys all virgins' we answered 'yea' he goes 'that sucks'..i reply(keep in mind htis kid is fat), "what does it matter, you have bigger boobs then the girl you had sex with"..ticked his *** off..someone else had a hillarious one what was it (yakneeman you remember?)...so their like can we use half the field, we said sure..they ***** and complain, then finally get their own ball..and they do nothing they just stand there trying to start fights.....so my friend (hes kind of big) is running with the ball, one of te 7th grader's decides to try and tackle him, and is about to then just turns and runs away like a little *****..then a few min later, i overkicked the returning team on a kickoff, and one of the 7th graders get it, so one of us just nailed him..this bruised all of their egos..they just all left:D ...2 of them walk by later, trying to say something..and we just get some good comebacks on them..and they keep walking...as im leaving, i see them out in front of a house playing with like 7 year olds..i honk at them and say you can use the field now..haha pissed the hell out of them

[dragons08]

Well she is not 20 until March. ;)

[CyFallsMom]

THAT'S OLD!!! I must be near death then:) :)

My son just turned 20 and my twin daughters turn 17 in April - I'm just biding my time until they all live on their own and I can get rid of the minivan and get a sports car (I'm sort of just kidding - love my kids dearly but I am so looking forward to travelling the world and driving small cars - oh, and learning how to snowboard with some really hot nordic instructor named Sven).

Yes... as Seguin has said in the past... he is the Achilies of our era... mortal greatness. Seguin appreciates you calling him great.

Seguin really does have a big head in real life... his body took forever to grow into it.

achilies...hmm...the achilies heal..also know as the problem..

[CyFallsMom]

They are fraternal. Irish/Italian with the emphaisis on Italian - dark hair, nice olive skin unlike their Irish mom. one is 5'3" and the other is 5'5". I know I'm biased but they are pretty girls...I have to watch them 24/7! I have gone up to grown men in the mall who have turned around to look at them. Last year at Disneyland, I went up to one who was staring obviously and told the perv to look at girls that were of LEGAL age! God, it's hard being a mom sometimes;)

[Favpack]

I like the sport - pretty demanding. Anybody catch the US chick hotdogging it -- only to lose the gold! Tragic - but her own fault - I say this sport catches on -- one of the more exciting events in this BORING Olympic year.

That was SO stupid! Her immaturity was showing. The funny thing is, she does a VISA commercial and it was running like mad for a while - bet we don't see that one ever again. I like the sport a lot - adds some spice and speed to the Winter olympics. Some of these sports (read: Biathlon, Cross country) really need to go - they are just too slow and time consuming and not made for TV. I know they were among the first sports in the winter games but if they want to keep the interest of the TV viewers, something's got to give. The men's figure skating can go too - if I wanted to see a drag show and histrionics, I'd go to Vegas. They are so emotional and dramatic.

[Favpack]

I've heard Dick Cheney is entering the biathlon next year:eek: :D

[lonny23]

No. You know BS when you see it!:p

[lonny23]

Is that possible?:p

Seguin, sorry for last night. I take back what I said before. I hope you can understand where I was coming from. You were hitting close to home.

Achilles had a weakness, too. It was his heel.

You're always picking on the 7th graders!:D

I guess I shouldn't complain since I always talk about you!

I could do without the men's figure skating, too. They used to have some man-types that skated, but they might've gone completely the other way now.

He should come out with a bumper sticker that says, 'Vote for Dick" and put a shotgun on it!:p

we tried ignoring them...so finally we had to kill the ego's..
