    He's pretty much the best active competition snowboarders (even skateboarders) to date but in that hour long documentary leading up the Olympics, he was focusing so much on trying to learn other riders tricks (Yolo, or whatever it's called).

    Shaun is a snowboarding pioneer; Therefore, he's a master!

    I understand what you're saying. I think Shaun was just trying to master other rider tricks. Being the best was his thing.

    ^ Although I don't watch this, I thought the same as the politician. Same could have been said about Shaun White and dropping out of slopestyle the day before.

    It drove me crazy watching the 3rd period of the Canada vs Austria game, as CBC split screen hockey and figure skating for 5 minutes of the period.

    yeah watched it great game.

    However I don't understand why the Russian 3rd goal was disallowed.

    If a gay Russian wins a medal, do they consider it legitimate?

    I haven't seen curling. NBC is being a little weird about things.
