CR Dunbar's Olympic Sized Bits and Pieces

I am going to tap into the eye of the tiger for today's bits and pieces:
  • Americans had a bigger blowout last night than DJ Pauly D.
  • If Scott Hamilton's head explodes into a bloody stump tonight from all twirling excitement, what happens? I imagine they have a contingency plan for this.
  • Lindsey Vonn, so hot, want to touch the heiney. Aaaooo!
  • When reporters get bored, they get snippy. I blame the lack of "services" now available to keep them happy on Tiger Woods.
  • Surrender! (Keep an eye on Skier #2)
  • What's the equivalent in Canada of Americans having their picture on the Wheaties box? Labatt Blue 12-pack?
  • I haven't seen the bandanna try to make a comeback like this since Napoleon Dynamite.

CR Dunbar's Olympic Sized Bits and Pieces

  • Can't go skiing because it's snowing. I've been doing it wrong all these years.
  • The prominence of primetime figure skating in the Olympics reminds me of the Conan/Leno fight. The Baby Boomer generation will never move out of the way.
  • Nobunari Oda is the 17th descendant of Nobunaga Oda, a famous Japanese warlord. He honors his grandfather's warlord spirit with this outfit.
  • NBC is drawing the line at sending Lindsey Jacobellis to the Fail Blog.
  • Male athletes should stay away from slipping into the female biathlon hut when the Olympic Villiage inevitably becomes the lust village. You don't need a roid raged woman with impeccable endurance and mad sniper skills coming for you after a one night stand.
They already made Sirli Hanni from Estonia take a mug shot

CR Dunbar's Olympic Sized Bits and Pieces

Who's the hotter breed? Skiers or swimmers?

I watched the Opening Ceremony with the sound off so I could experience it in a pure form without the distractions of sound. Or, I was at the bar and it happened to be on. Here's what I saw and my opening thoughts:
  • A Canadian Gandalf took on an inflatable giant bear.
  • Peter Pan founded Canada by learning to fly and grow corn.
  • The camera guys did a phenomenal job finding the tail in the large groups and provided the uncontrived balance with the ugly countries, ahem Latvia. Did they need to go any further than Sweden though? They lived up to the cliche.
  • Remember the episode of Family Guy where Peter asks if they could be with any girl who would it be and Quagmire answer Taylor Hanson from Hanson? Shaun White may have confused some men during the ceremony's parade of women.
  • Mad props to my boy from Skee town for carrying in the flag.
  • The question of the Olympic games may be who's the hotter breed? Skiers or swimmers? One is always wet, one always likes to go down. Bada bing.
  • I remembered that freestyle skiing is awesome, but now it is done. Figure skating will be on every night now.
  • With women's volleyball every night during the summer we at least were treated to PG-13 rated ample cheeks. With ice skating they use nylon fake skin or fur.
