> [@Reg](#): > > Canada just beat the USA at women’s hockey. Not the medal round. That’s later. Still it’s nice given how strong the US team is. I admit, I somehow care about hockey at these Olympics. I try not to but I do. I especially got a kick out of the Chinese team being an almost all-Canadian squad. lol. > > [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWoM4vQjDIA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWoM4vQjDIA) > > Their women’s team is all Canadian, too.

Pretty inconsistent with the covid rules. Russian womem team suspected of having covid so instead of postponing the game, the Canadian women agreed to play with masks. During the game, the Russians got their negative results and took their masks off. The canadians kept their masks on and won 6-1. Looks like the best american is out for the Olympics. I’ve only watched an hour of the Olympics, but I saw her injury live and thought it was dirty. Nobody complained though. ---

Speed skating has to be the dumbest sport ever. Hockey is much better, although I admit I don’t know why it’s better. Both are contrived and ridiculous games played on ice. ---

Both are contrived and ridiculous games played on ice. no no no! real hocky is not played on ice 😉 you should watch some shorttrack speedskating, although they dont wear all that protective gear nor a stick, its quite similar to your fakehockey lol always chaos and commotion ---

I have seen speed skating. I think it’s stupid and slightly bizarre, but to each their own. ---

I’d be surprised if the russian Olympic committee keeps that gold. Definitely a performance enhancer they are known for.

USA just beat Canada at men’s hockey, which is really the only sport that matters at this Olympics. We’ll probably get another chance in the medal rounds but things aren’t looking good. USA are now clear favourites for gold. ---

> [@thinkingaboutit](#): > > (just teasing that weidemann girl did well to get 2 medals in speed skating) Nobody to speak of in Canada has ever heard of her. Nor do I care upon hearing of her. I care about the hockey. I don’t even know why I care but I do. Your weird sport where underfed elves skate around in circles must be the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen. ---

She is attractive and charming, and while I hate Ottawa, I admit it can be pretty in summer. None of this changes the fact that skating around fast in circles is beyond stupid.
