It was her last run dude. They all get 3.
She was in first place as a result of her 2nd run, and there were no competitors left.

That hug and return hug between the U.S. half pipe chicks was pretty sweet.

Here we go. Win or go home.
Hoping for a good game here UNLIKE that last game against Russia.

Hey DJ wanna make a bet on the Canada - USA women's hockey finals ?

Nothing too crazy
perhaps something symbolic.
I wouldn't want you to spend too much.

Love the comment from Milbury about Wisniewski after he scored “he hasn’t played any 5:5 this tournament because he isn’t very good”

Why the hell was 3 minutes added to the penalty?

2 penalties, one was a minor (2 min) and the other a match major (5 min and game misconduct)

Absolutely. what do you propose

I havent had an Alexander Keiths in awhile... against a 6 of Sam Adams? Or would beers be too hard to ship

I would say Syrup since your country has it on their stupid flag, but I get some pretty bomb syrup where I live.. Coffee Krisps vs American Cheese? cheese might not ship too well.. Ketchup Chips vs Cape Cod Chips? again might not ship that well
20 Loonie dollars to about 15.50 American??

**iceman** · 02-19-2018, 10:37 PM

a lobster vs. a moose

okay a few lobsters

**Diamond Joe** · 02-19-2018, 10:40 PM

Is moose good??

again, I feel like you run into some shipping issues with that

**iceman** · 02-19-2018, 10:45 PM

Shipping may be a problem, yes.

**MTT** · 02-19-2018, 10:57 PM

I liked seeing the moment Skis in the Half pipe

**Svengali** · 02-19-2018, 10:58 PM

Low attendance, you ask? They’re all here!

It sure looks like cheap Helly Hansen Impertech rubber rain gear. Maybe it’s the cheaper Columbia version...

**Tippster** · 02-19-2018, 11:05 PM

Team USA looking solid.

Right on. Looking forward to this

Maybe a box of Almond Joy for a box of Coffee Crisp and some local potato chips for a ketchup Chip's.
I'm going to sleep on it and ask my cousin who goes to Boston all the time what treats I should ask for.

Btw the beer think is the best idea but it would have to be sent in cans and that's not so good

Cheers DJ

LoL. Sure you could sent a Antelope

**Diamond Joe** · 02-19-2018, 11:28 PM

Owch that was an absolutely nasty crash there.. damn. one of the worst halfpipe crashes in recent memory

Love skiing halfpipe

Yater-Wallace! one of the best throw-away runs I've ever seen hahaha

Not me. She qualified fairly. Maybe they need to add a codicil "we reserve the right to deny entry to anyone who sucks."

**Diamond Joe** · 02-19-2018, 11:51 PM

How did David Wise not get a higher score for that run?? he went yhuge

**Supermoon** · 02-19-2018, 11:54 PM

Yeah he dialed down the technicality and that last landing was sketchy, slightly missed one grab. Thought it was maybe an 82, but not any higher than that. I’m just happy he landed it.

Anything other than an all US podium would be a disappointment at this point. They are all skiing so well.
