You can expect loads of propaganda from the Government of China on subjects that have nothing to do with the athletes and the games. Avoid watching the crap.

Just watched the Mixed short track skating relay ....... semi f China finished third ..... video challenge ..... ROC & USA disq ..... china through to final

In final Canada/Hungary clashed and both went down, Italian had to slow and take evasive action leaving China 10 yds in lead ...... by chequered flag lead down to a couple of inches ...... no review necessary .... China win gold

It is a shame that people still allow China to host events like this, a total boycott of this regime is needed.

Regardless of what propaganda the China govt come up with (no different from every other host nation) the athletes have no option but to compete there. I watched the biathlon relay yesterday .... 66 minutes of skiing and 20 targets hit, 4 person teams, and all 3 medal positions changed in the last 25 metres with top three covered by less than 2 seconds.
Chinese team were about 15mins behind.
Noted but didnt see the Canucks stuffed the Fins 11 - 1 at Hockey :shock:

Yes, Katerina Witt of East Germany was the lady who brought passion to her sport and made figure skating sexy and must viewing. Debbie Thomas of the U.S.A. and the Canadian gal just didn't cut it...an impressive figure, I mean
