As I said, he normally commentates on Alpine skiing. And there are not as many Eastern European competitors in that sport.

Hey, if the normal figure skating commentators on British Eurosport can't get the pronounciations right when they are coming across Slavic names all the time, how do you expect a blow-in to manage it?!

Oh god, I didn't know we needed a Mario program!!

 

[cathlen]

I remember the Super Mario program from JGP! Too bad they didn't finish in time.

I know, but it still make me cringe when I hear it. Not that Polish commentators are any better. They can read the same name in 10 different ways :scowl:

I didn't like Yurchenko/Byelikov music, but they did look good.

Oh, don't worry. I'm the same, cringing whenever commentators pronounce a name one way, and I know it should be pronounced a different way.

I liked your wee quip about your commentators! Bit like our guys and the Japanese names!

Right, I had a visitor call, so I'm now running about 12m behind the LIVE coverage (Righi / Papetti just getting their scores). But, hopefully I'll catch up in the resurfacing.

Very nice from the Lithuanians! I really liked it - and the crowd seems to have enjoyed it too.

 

[matmuh]

i really like this team, they are unique and she has lovely arm/hand movements

 

[cathlen]

Alice in Wonderland was great!

ED: The are clearly dissapointed in scores, can't blame them.

 

[coldblueeyes]

I was unpleasantly surprised by the score.

 

[matmuh]

[cathlen]

[matmuh]

My Dad has "The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly" as his ringtone, so when KALEHANAVA / PALKHOUSKI started, I was about to shout "DAD! PHONE!". And then I realised it was the computer!

The animal noises that followed were truly weird.

My favorite junior russians... but uh oh, did a hair band fall out? Something looked weird with her hair when they setup and then something fell out. Probably get a deduction for that.
