    @salacious-crumb gayest thing written on the Fern not by @MN5

    Perving at figure skaters is gay now?

    Must be a Queensland thing.

    I might have been swayed about the figure skating after seeing the German bird.

    Gotta love Australians!

    How about one Aussie commentator (I don't know her name) saying that the free style skiing (I think) was 'Chinese Like' in that they all look the same!!

    Gold!

    Once you go down that path it's a slippery slope.

    another night, another rage at Ch7. The whole commentary of the aerials was cringe-worthy. From the bloke not doing any homework and being unable to pronounce any name that wasn't Australian; to ignoring some jumps so they can cut to an interview with an Aussie girl's husband and son in the stands; to any decent jumper falling over being described as "great for australia".

    Fuck, it's just so lacking in class, and dripping in jingoism. It's the television equivalent of draping yourself in an aussie flag and heading to Cronulla beach to bash some muzzies.

    can't have been. I didn't hear him accuse any Russians (sorry, Olympic athletes from Russia) of cheating. Or even one whinge about the standard of judging.

    Obviously didn't check his emails.

    It's all the WTA's fault ...

    I heard them saying the Winter Olympics team "target" with High Performance Sport NZ is one medal.

    These are the guys that need to do it!

    Conflicted about last night. Aussie coverage spent an hour pumping up the Aussie aerial skier, and how amazing his new trick for the final was going to be, interviewing every one even remotely related to him, to the point where the first jumper was almost on his way down the slope before they even acknowledged he existed.

    Aaaaand he didn't make it out of the first round of finals. Which would have had me cheering such is my hatred of Ch7 and what they have reduced this games too, if not for the fact that the dodginess of judged sport was in full effect. A chinese athlete who didn't even land his jump somehow managed to have a higher score than the Aussie who landed his. You fucking dodgy fluffybunnies!

    @mariner4life In the same way Sam Hill can crash with the finish line in front of him and yet still be much faster than me.
