jerryskids 5,204 Posted March 14, 2018 I'm sitting in a bar in Colorado watching people with no arms or no legs compete in cross country skiing. I'm hella impressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted March 14, 2018 I watched a bit of the hockey last night. Unreal. Some of these guys are like stumps. A chest and arms and a head. God bless them. I'd be wallowing in self pity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,640 Posted March 14, 2018 Technically, I think that's just sledding. Should get them into curling. Bunch people rubbing brooms around them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeshushu 51 Posted March 14, 2018 They did have curling. In wheel chairs throwing the stone with an extended arm no brooms though. Looked more like Shuffle board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,204 Posted March 14, 2018 For the standing skiing I was trying to figure out the qualifications. Some folks had two arms, some one, one Dood had none. Hmm, two arms and two legs which seem to work, why are you here? Also no arm Dood came in last, but the look on his face said I'm gonna finish this mother focker. Which he did.

vuduchile 1,941 Posted March 14, 2018 I know one of the guys on the US goalball team. He's completely blind. Pretty amazing that they can pick up the ball by the sound it makes. https://www.teamusa.org/US-Paralympics/Sports/Goalball Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,640 Posted March 14, 2018 Man, I know exactly what these guys are going through. Just last night I was going to bring a few more soda pops from the garage into the refrigerator. But my left foot fell asleep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you watch the Curling? Can't even sweep or pick up their own stones. All I've seen is the cross country skiing I described. I'm feeling the itch to train for something again; focking people with no limbs or eyes are doing more than I am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted March 15, 2018 69 is also known as the lollipop. Half the time they don't even wanna be doing the 69, they just can't wiggle out of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
