Bob “Pinkeye” Costas.
Hilarious, Quviut. When I first saw it, I thought, “Bob, get a room” and don’t make me look at that disgusting eye.
Then it got worse over the course of the week and articles popped up about “the eye”, trying to elicit sympathy for the dope. ..claiming that the Olympic reporting is tainted without the liberal behind the mic.
I watch the figure skating and then only the last and best skaters. Listening to Scott Hamilton is fine.
I’ve seen very little - the Biathlon was good when a 40 year old skated off a penalty and beat all the youngsters. The cross country relays have been excellent - women’s was fantastic. I just cannot watch ice skating other than ice dancing and then I’m mostly looking for Davis/White. Curling .... like watching paint dry. If the weather weren’t so bad in so many places with people not having much to do, I doubt their viewership would be at reasonable levels. Instead, I’ve been watching the Outdoor channel (deer hunting, African safari) for the most part & a lot of it is reruns.
Last comment - many of the ‘uniforms’ have been awful - whoever thought the snowboarders, etc. should be in “khaki” that looked like grandma sewed patches on it should have been fired - you know somebody for the US Olympic team had to approve it. Speed skaters have weird patches in the insides of their thighs ... should have been the same color as the suits ... when they stand with their legs close together, it looks like they have big silver balls. ... the way they’ve been skating, they could have used some real ones. I need to stop now .... before I say something ‘really’ bad.
