I'll say they're sloppy, leaving their clothes everywhere, leaving dirty dishes in the sink...and don't get me started on that hair thing.

bamboohat, you are officially "old school". snowboarding is as legitimate an olympic sport as curling and ice dancing. In fact, for the summer games, make skateboarding, marbles, and ballroom dancing olympic sports to kind of even out the "cool factor" of these here games.

Shaun White to snowboarding is what Tony Hawk is to skateboarding - glorified punks. Still, they do some radical stuff out there and earn my envy for going out and doing what they love - and getting paid for it. J-officials and every other salaryman - Japanese and otherwise - could learn a bit about cutting loose and living life from these shredders. Now where's my bong?

Small people, big heart. As an American, I'm glad the U.S. is doing well. Being an Olympic athlete takes years of hard training, and the dedication to keep going is something money can't buy. Which is why for the pixie-ish Japanese to compete with the Euro-giants like Austria and Norway says a lot about the heart of these people.
By the way, where are the bikini shots of Vonn?

Japan's not raking in the medals, but they have had top ten finishes in a lot of the sports where there's not a whiff of a competitor from another Asian country - take ski jumping and the moguls. But yeah, I agree - no medal, no glory...unless you're really hot.

Good for Korea! Great that they put their naturally chunky thighs to good use. But they should try to be competitive in the other sports as well, ala Japan.

Seems to happen a lot in this sport. You'd think after all the time and training, they'd get the whole "not slipping out of contention" thing down.

Try not to ride the front car of any train - lest you be the first to go in a head-on or a derailment.

Agree! Great fun to watch. Almost as fun as seeing the mogulers wipe out.

Everyone on the team...shave your heads! At least that should rid the team of that vanity thing that makes J-soccer players look like girly-girls on a Sunday run in the park.

For once, a train story of heroism rather than lechery. Sounds like the beginning of a J-drama.

I once asked a cashier at a Starbucks in Vancouver if they have baguettes. He asked, "What's a baguette?"

There's a reason French wasn't really used - it's a minor language. Why the Olympics still insist on using at all rivals why Latin is still taught in some schools. Quebecers, if you want to speak French, go to France! Oui?
