Kalla gold was bad?
No that was good, but today and yesterday we have three 4th places.
And today it was a mistake by the organizers with the start for Olofsson-Zidek(maybe for some more?), so no really honest chance according to me.
She got back her 14 seconds, so you can't really complain about that |

Well it's all based on qualifying in the event the other day. So it's fair.
yeah but they gave golds for that as well, you can't give two golds for the same event

yes I know but anyway. She was placed 7-8 in the race but when they took away the secons she became 4th. I Think her motivation should have been better if she was 4th in the race and felt that she had chance to the 3rd place. |

Yeah. I find it rather weird as well.
If youre good and win one gold medal, you almost certainly will get another bonus medal for free with it... |

Well done to Ricker for a great Canadian gold at a thrilling snowboard cross competition.

Yeah, controlled the final. The final would probably have been more exciting had Jackobellis no crashed. |

yea I agree, giving a gold for winning the biathlon sprint, then doing the pursuit based on the sprint results and giving another gold. Thats just stupid.

Majdic suprised and took 3rd, due the fact that she's acctually injured.
Also I bet my money on norway in the men's final, we have three men there There's also two russian too. And if the norwegians not succes tomorrow, I also hope Neuner win
