Looking good for Ahonen and Hautamäki. :devil:


Here we go...

Indeed, looking very good. Don't expect this russian to perform that well in the second round. Morgestern is a bit of a concern though.

Atleast this Janda fecker is out...


God I hate noggies. :mad:

The norwegians are always cheating. They apperantely tried something with their suits yesterday as well. Good thing they noticed it and banned the norwegian from competing today.
 
fecking pathetic sport, the wind decided everything and the norwegians were unsurprisingly luckiest again.

Depressing as feck. :mad:

decent result yes :) but we could have had more if Ahonen had got a favourable wind.
Yes but all the top jumpers from the first round failed aswell...


And yes, I hate noggies even more now.
 
Hehe, gotta love Ahonens interviews. :lol:


They reminds me of Räikkönen´s, "mrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
 
Now I´m off to see TV 4 Sporten, I wanna find out how many medals sweden have taken today. :)

Can someone remind me who's got the most medal points up until now? :devil:
 
Impressive silver by Frode Estil on the CC 30 km Pursuit. He broke one of his skis.
 
I will be very surprised if Poles finish this Olympics with medal, though Malysz has a slight chance of jumping into top 3 on the big hill. He could have been in top 3 today as well, but fecked up his second jump when wind was really good. Credit where credit is due, Kojonkoski has done an amazing job with Norwegians, I still can't believe that they turned them into top force.

Predictably, ITV have taken the worst event of any Olympics, added some celebrities, and turned it into some kind of reality TV game show

The hills in San Sicario proved treacherous Monday as Allison Forsyth was one of three women to suffer serious crashes in training runs.

SAN SICARIO, Italy (CP AP) -- Canadian Allison Forsyth's Olympics came to an abrupt end on Monday after she became one of four women to crash during training for the women's downhill.

The Nanaimo, B.C., native suffered a torn ligament in her left knee and was airlifted to Turin for magnetic resonance imaging, according to an Alpine Canada spokesperson.

Forsyth is expected to return to Canada in the coming days and undergo surgery on her anterior cruciate ligament, which is the major stabilizing ligament in the knee.

The 27 year old was to compete in her second Olympics. Forsyth, who won bronze in the giant slalom at the 2003 world championship, is known as a technical skier but planned to compete in the downhill at these Games as well.

Earlier in the day, American gold medal contender Lindsey Kildow crashed badly on her downhill training run moments after defending Olympic champion Carole Montillet Carles of France was carried off the hill on a sled.

Austrian Elisabeth Goergl also had a minor fall.

Kildow was taken by helicopter to a hospital trauma centre in Turin, U.S. Olympic Committee spokesman Bob Condron said. Her injuries were not as severe as first feared, however.

ehm the hockey tournament is already underway :confused:

Granted women's time would be better spent in the kitchen baking a nice cake for their man (after all their feet are smaller so they can stand closer to the oven) but hey these modern girls what can you do ...bless 'em eh ?
