    So I'm filling out my fantasy team for the 2010 Winter games and I'm stuck on the Women's Biathalon. I clearly have to go with Helena Jonsson (Sweden) but I need a second,Kati Wilhelm (Germany) or Olga Medvedtseva (Russia)

    I see the "Lindsey Vonn is the Michael Phelps of the Winter Games!" storyline has already been derailed now that she has some deep shin bruise. Oops. Somewhere, Dick Ebersol poured himself another double of 50-year-old Macallan.

    What event is Vonn in. I've never heard of her. Surprised they have not done more to promote her if she is the Bodie Miller of these games? ::)

    Well, more people would know this if the games were broadcast on an actual network.

    I think she hurt her shin during the SI Swimsuit issue photo shoot. [/crossthreading]

    Seeing as how I live on the west coast of the United States, I'll post on this thread three hours after the rest of the country.

    No way. Bode didn't care in Torino. He admitted all he wanted to do was drink and pary. Vonn cares. She may not win five golds (my prediction is two golds, one bronze), but it won't be because she doesn't care.

    I already have Lindsay Vonn burnout. This is a dream for the Ebersole Olympics. The drama has started. Will Lindsay be able to compete. I don't know if I am going to make it till Wednesday.

    Are these sporting events or some sort of bastardized version of Friday Night Lights that happens with sports none of us even know how to score every four years?

    Surely you know how to score the biathlon

    Oh, and for Yanks living on the border--TSN and CTV's coverage will kick NBC's ass. You just have to put up with Canadian homerism for a change.
