Subject: Winter Olympics 2014 Sochi

So maybe the Swiss should change their focus, stop skiing, it's not that successfull as it ones was (many years ago ;P) and focus on the new sports and speed skating. Many more medals to win ;D

And boring as hell, nah, thanks :p

Don't forget that a dutch family who come in Swiss moutain gives more gold than a speed skating competitor ;-)... And there are many dutch families who come in Swiss moutains :-D

hah, Sablikova and Wust will be in the samé heat tomorrow...it should be really interesting :-)

I think Sablikova will win :p

I hope so :P

you have enough medals, we haven't :D

Damn how its posssible that Dutch are third country in winter games, better than 100x bigger USA or Russia?

Because for a strange reason we are very good at speed skating :p Or the other countries just suck.

The other countries don't care.

And boring as hell, nah, thanks :p

Speed skating is a bit like cycling, you need to see the charm of it and then you will/can start to appreciate this sport ;)

But ofcourse, to see your country win makes watching it more fun ;D

I think Sablikova will win :p

Ho ho, don't start swearing now ;P

Damn how its posssible that Dutch are third country in winter games, better than 100x bigger USA or Russia?

This is why ... speed skating ;)





If a country wants to win many medals, focus on the right sports with many Event Finals :P




Just look at the number 1: NORWAY (all medals Norway) ;)

Unfortunatly no Ladies' Parallel Giant Slalom medal today for Olympic Champion 2010, Nicolien Sauerbreij.

But today also the last individual speed skating event, Ladies' 5000m. Hopefully another gold medal for Ireen Wüst or some other Dutch girl!

Suomi gonna bash Russia?

oh Putin gonna be mad.

Cycling can be interesting, but speed skating is as if every stage of a tour would be held in a time trial. Everyone's just skating one dumb round after the other, and if it wasn't for speed and occasional time measures you would have no idea what's going on. They could at least introduce some k.o./head-to-head system as in the snowboard giant slalom for example.
