This Olympics commentator compared the Israeli couple

[Hardrada]

to Roseanne Barr singing the national anthem! Was that the idiot Dick Button??

[Blue Belle]

1. It sounds like something he'd say.....

He thinks he's full of Pearls of wisdom... but my guess is most of the people in the booth with him thinks he's full of shit.

[redwitch]

2. I don't know but I finally had to tell him to shut up.

He kept going with the analogies. we get it! we get it! the mute button is a good thing isn't it?

[Hardrada]

3. Like no skaters can match anything since 1984 or something.

C'est un jerk-off!!

[redwitch]

4. the costumes and make up are so hideous this Olympics.

just gross. they all look so Vegas/circus. It's sad.
Bring back Peggy Fleming said redwitch, showing her age to everyone but the young'uns who have no idea who Peggy Fleming is.
:P

[Hardrada]

6. They shouldn't all have to skate around in tight knickers

to show they are great skaters! Yes, Ms Fleming is my ideal too.

[SoCalDem]

8. After Dorothy Hamill, the girls went "sticks & bones" too

Female skaters used to be shapely and graceful.. Now it's all about putting your foot on top of your head and jumping..:puke:

[redwitch]

9. yeah, pretty angular bunch for sure.

this american couple is very enjoyable to watch. liked their costumes and their music and their routine. Somebody tell me where and when the twizzle came to be? I swear I have never heard of it before this year.

11. I remember Peggy Fleming, Dear, she's a Doll!

[AwakeAtLast]

13. Yeah, I thought the Ukraine woman was wearing pasties!

Why did they think thousands of tassels on the boobs was a good idea?
Not much else left to the imagination, either. It was horrid! :puke:

[FuzzySlippers]

5. Apparently no one has the right to skate to "Bolero"

because Torville and Dean own it, or sumpthin' like that.

:eyes:

[redwitch]

7. Yup.

The Bulgarian couple on now are rather gorgeous, nice skate they just did.

[Beausoir]

12. Yep. Torville and Dean. Or, Granma and Gramps as they are called now.

Dick Buttons is hysterical. And not in a good way.

[Blue Belle]

10. Okay... how many times did we hear about Jamie Silverstein...

(of the USA) being treated for her eating disorder?? 8 or 9?? I've counted twice in this program alone. Props to her for coming out and being so open with her treatment, but jeeze... this is all this girl is going to be known for.

:eyes:
