Figure skating is one of the best!!  The Quad God  (Ilia Malinin) going for gold. He is an absolute freak doing things no skater has ever done. I think there will never be a Quintuple.

I’ll leave that one for you. Not interested. I’ll take Super G downhill and the Biarhalon!

Used to go over my friends house as a teenager and we would all sit around the living room TV and watch.

I guess that's why I will watch just about anything on ESPN

I do love all the weird sports. Vividly remember watching a Chinese dude named Dong Dong dominate the trampoline in a bar in NYC at like midnight. Had the whole place cheering for him

I won't be surprised if the NHL pulls players at the last second.

That rink has been a major fock up.

Those are the only events?  Always seemed like there were more.

Will it be on TV at a decent hour or is it half way around the world?

Sort of.  The rink dimensions are slightly off.  And last time they tried playing on it, there was a big hole in the ice.
