In a college hockey note, the clip of J.R. Celski's gash took place at ... NMU's Berry Events Center.

I'm trying to decide which Olympic commercial is more annoying: the "eat like Olympians" ad or the BC Tourism ad.

Seriously? We're wasting time on Mary Carillo playing RCMP?

"eat like Olympians". Like they would let that trash past their lips.

I know TBA's vote.... if he acknowledged the existence of the Proctor & Gamble ad with moms singing "You'll Never Walk Alone."

There's that hometown officiating in the Olympics we've all come to know and love. Advance the Canadian for groping the American and wiping out.

Canada gets 2 in the second end against GB. Both of these teams are very, very good.

So Celski got grabbed, the guy who grabbed him fell down and they DQed Celski? For what?

"sweeping his hand behind him."

Or something stupid like that. Even the announcers thought it was stupid.

Celski didn't make a clean pass, caused the crash, and thus got DQed. What seems to be the thing that isn't understood is why the other guy got advanced even though he wasn't in qualifying position.

"eat like Olympians". Like they would let that trash past their lips.

McNugget ingredients:

White boneless chicken, water, food starch-modified, salt, seasoning (autolyzed yeast extract, salt, wheat starch, natural flavoring (botanical source), safflower oil, dextrose, citric acid, rosemary), sodium phosphates, seasoning (canola oil, mono- and diglycerides, extractives of rosemary). Battered and breaded with: water, enriched flour (bleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), yellow corn flour, food starch-modified, salt, leavening (baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, calcium lactate), spices, wheat starch, whey, corn starch. Prepared in vegetable oil (Canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, hydrogenated soybean oil with TBHQ and citric acid added to preserve freshness). Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an antifoaming agent.

Antifoaming agent? :confused:

It seems like the contention is that the Canadian initiated contact after Celski passed when he didn't need to, creating the crash. It's like Scott Rolen intentionally going wide to run into Inge in the 2006 World Series.

Apparently the non-North American athletes love McDonald's. I saw something about that during one of the other Olympics.

Antifoaming agent? :confused:

so, really it doesn't seem that horrible... though I'd be really suspicious of the first ingredient... then again "rib meat" is white meat... then again I didn't know chickens had ribs.

Pretty much any McDonalds' ad takes the cake for me. Like the competitors are actually eating that crap while they prepare for their events. :rolleyes:

Re: Part III of the XXIst Winter Olympiad Or how I Learned to Stop Worryng & Love Curling

If you believe Wiki, its a common item in foods.

When used as an ingredient in food, antifoaming agents are intended to curb effusion or effervescence in preparation or serving.[citation needed] The agents are included in a variety of foods such as Diet Pepsi, Diet Coke, Sprite, and chicken nuggets in the form of polydimethylsiloxane (a type of silicone).[4]

Silicone oil is also added to cooking oil to prevent foaming in deep-frying.[citation needed]

Isn't the Olympic Village food free? If I ate meat I would be all over those French Fries and Hashbrowns.

My question is this, do they serve breakfast all day? ;) I'd want me some hashbrowns all day long.
