Anyone see the Olympics tonight???

Did anyone watch the 90 meter Ski Jump today? I was kinda ticked off because Adam Malysz (Ski jumper from Poland, my country) lost the gold. I was so sure he would get Gold for us, but during his first jump he messed up and landed kinda rough. Then I knew it was the begining of the end. I read that before the Olympics, he won 2nd place in the World cup, after that German Dude. I was sure he would grab gold, but he ended up w/ bronze, which is not bad, it's still a really high honor just to get a medal, but he should have done better. Anyone see that?

Yep, I saw it. The Simon Ahmman kid from Switzerland won the gold, which he deserved. No offense. But that kid came out of no where to win it.

I saw it. Since I don't have any ties to Poland I wasn't disappointed like you. In fact, I enjoyed watching the kid from Switzerland win. He was so excited when he won! I love to see that.

Yeah, I just watched the rerun at 2:45am. I'm sorry the guy you were rooting for lost. But I gotta agree with Cokies, that Swiss kid had a great jump and really deserved the gold. But it is disappointing when the person you are rooting for doesn't meet expectations.

I thought the Switz kid did a good job. It was a great jump. But sorry the person you wanted to win didn't win :(

Did anyone see the interview with the kid afterwards? It was pretty funny. He couldn't convey in English how happy he was. He was just sort of screaming with joy. :lol:

No, I'm not saying that the Swiss kid should have lost, I just said that it was Malysz's fault, because he messed up when he shouldn't have. The Swiss kid deserved to win, I was just rooting for Malysz. (and so was the rest of my block :lol: ) And he should have done better, not that the others should have done worse. And yea, that was funny when they were interviewing the Swiss kid, just a rush of words and he was tounge tied! :lol:

Oh, well, there's always next winter Olympics, just 4 more years. The next Winter Olympics are in Torino, Italy!!! :clap: Yay!
