I can't find it on any of the channels though

There's one clear leader and a pack of about 10 skiiers that are 25 seconds behind, the THREE canadians are in this pack.

nm.

[GirlySports]

Thanks.

The guy who was ahead has been caught.. I think only one Canadian Babikov is in contention now.. I think the guy in Bib #2 will win

[GirlySports]

Darn, 5th

[Papi34]

Damn nice job babikov! all 4 canadians in the top 15. Incredible results no medals but way better results than expected!

[Tensen]

Watching a bit of the Switzerland vs China woman's hockey. Impressed with the commentators ability with the Asian/Euro names. Of course he could be massacring the names and I would never know.

Since you probably know more about figure skater gossip than most of us, do you know if it's true that Elvis Stojko once beat up or round house kicked Eric Lindros a long time ago?? That was a funny rumour way back!

Annette Norberg getting destroyed by the Russians... 7-0 through 5 ends, and the Russians lying 3 again. That'll be the biggest upset of the round robin.

Yeah after a few picked rocks and errors and Swedes just gave up.

I think it was fake, but that has been a long-running rumor, hey

[Machiavelli]

So this is the first go around, eh?

[MRCboicgy]

All three top Canadians in the 1500 will finish on the inside lane. I hope that's a bit of an advantage

[OILFAN #81]

Are you stupid? (is skating now)

3 Canadians in the top 7 could be interesting. I hope Denny pushes for Shani Davis, and Makowsky or Giroux challenge for a bronze.

[Machiavelli]

Frack...the Canadians are coming up and none of the major channels are showing speed-skating.

TSN is replaying womens' alpine.

Edit: okay, CTV has gone back to it.

[Kybosh]

CTV has speed skating.

[Machiavelli]

Wow, great race by Tae-Bum Mo

[Kybosh]

Is it Mo Tae Bum or Tae Bum Mo?
