Sweden left them chances, but the US's last 2 rocks were not great.

Still, silver is impressive

USA women 5-0 over Canada.

I know Canada was down their best player, but USA also hit 2 posts.  They are an absolute machine right now

Looks like scoring 5 in every game is just what they do right now.  I'll take it!

Slovakia destroyed Finland.  That was the toughest group, and Finland, who is probably the 4th best team in the tournament, is now going to finish (no pun intended) 3rd in their group

These athletes continue to amaze me.   Slaloms, moguls, half pipe.

As someone with 2 ACL tears, I don't understand how human knees can do moguls

Skiing moguls is one of the most miserable experiences in my life.  

I intentionally sought to avoid them at Park City,  a run was unexpectedly closed on my way down and I was forced over to a mogul hill.   After about 30 yards, I took off my skis and slugged down the side.  There were several of us pissed off.

If you don't want to get air, you can just do them slow.

I enjoyed skiing the bumps, when I was young

For the challenge, sure. But I lost that urge a long time ago. I'm also not the best skier (never have been). I just like getting down the hill and feeling like I'm going fast (for me) and making fun turns.
