yes. yesterday was the speed skating 1500 m. smart apollo ohno fell in the finals b/c he tried to pass teh guy who was infront of him, hit his hand on the guy's skate, then hit his hand on the block, and dropped down to 5th and you had to be in the top 2 to move on. and he was in 2nd and it was the last lap.
and in men's hal-pipe a bunch of ppl fell. and shaun white had a really good first run and was in 1st teh whole time b/c ppl kept falling. bad ppl. one of the finnish snowboarders had a good beginning of his 2nd run but then scrubbed right at the end. and almost everyone was depending on their 2nd run b/c they fell or did somehting wrong in their first run. and one guy on his 2nd run got the height but didn't go out far ebough and fell on the deck, right on his hip. ouch. i think it was andy finch. and he already had an injured foot and wrist. and danny kass fell too. and everyone was so disappointed. he got silver in salt lake. so shaun white got gold and i dunno who got silver or bronze.....his score was 46.somehting. the next highest score was 41.somehting

'Tis not surprising about countries only having 1 athlete... not everywhere has winter, or atleast not the winters like in the western part of the globe...
Canada Update
Canada 3 medals, 1 Gold 1 Silver 1 Bronze
Womens team 36-1 goals in 3 games (scored 36 gave 1)

Pfft. I grow increasingly displeased with NBC's coverage. They should let ABC handle it.
