Hi Piteousmaximus,

I live in Montreal Canada, which means I have 3 channels that show the Olympics.
The two are Canadian and mostly show the same things only one is in French the other in English and I have one American channel. I am not sure I think it is ABC or I am not sure which one it is…

But what happens is that the Canadians, show mostly the games where Canadian athletes are participating. I did not watch the Ukie and the Swiss game but I see the results are good.

I did not watch much today as I was not home during most of the day, only during brakes I went on Internet, and could watch the women’s skiing directly on RTR from Russia which was great. They got silver and bronze I think.

Hey Maribould.
Love your city, was there just last year. I've been working hard the last few days, so I missed quite a few games. U.S. female hockey kicked some royal German a$$, I hear (10-0). I caught part of the Austria/Slovakia game, but had to leave for work just when the game I really wanted to catch started (Latvia/Germany).

Yes, Montreal is nice. Where do you live ?

Today must be interesting, Russia vs. Canada womens game.
Also:
France vs. Ukraine mens hockey
BEL vs SUI mens hockey.

and SWE vs KAZ womens hockey.

But as you were saying Piteousmaximus, I thought Kazakhstan’s gaol keeper was doing a good job. I don’t know if they will win thought.

I'm in Chicago, kissing cousin to Toronto.

Well, yet another day (night) at work, thus several more good games missed. I caught the beginning of Ukraine/France when the Ukkies scored one. Looked like a good game. Luckily, I'm off next week, so all the top teams will get my undivided attention.
Who are you rooting for, Mariboulg, Canada or France?

I can't wait to watch the Russian men's team play!!

The Canadian women's hockey team beat the Russian by a large margin (I don't recall the score), but I'm not that interested in women's hockey.

I saw the Russia vs. Canada game and well Canadians are good, what can we say.
Results are Can-7 Rus-0.
Ukraine on the other hand won the game they played with France.
UKR-4 FRA 2

When is Canada playing France ?

Hey,
A victory for Ukraine, though nice, sadly is not enough. They needed a 3 point margin to advance.
Bad loss for Russia!! I guess Kasakhstan is rubbing off on them.
