So are we all agreed that PyeongChang 2018 > Rio 2016 already?

So are we all agreed that PyeongChang 2018 > Rio 2016 already?

How can you compare winter and summer sports?

2006 torino >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> everything else

Better than Sochi and Vancouver so far.

yes

the snow hasn't turned green yet so yeah

On the plus side, this one isn't being held in an undeveloped shithole country.

timezones fucking suck though
and the next two olympics will also be in east asia. why is this shit allowed

Not comparing sports, I'm comparing the fact that the events are actually professionally run and well attended with great atmosphere as opposed to that shitshow two years ago where Brazilian monkeys left nearly an entire stand empty during the mens 100 metre final, plus there's already been far more drama at this stage than there was in Rio 3 days in.

Only bad thing is the timezone

Being awake from midnight til 2pm every day is gonna be hard

You dont like watching curling at 3am? Whats wrong with you?

>make it in a poor country
>choses the worst city in said country
>charges an eye and a leg even for mickey mouse sports qualifiers
Don't know what you were expecting desu

We gave tickets to events no one wanted to attend to schoolchildren in 2012. I'm surprised with your socialist government and all that you didnt follow suit

Nagano and Salt Lake City were the two greatest IMO.

Probably some shit like bureaucracy would take too long or the IOC wanted the government to buy the tickets instead of handing them out.

Idk. Rio is a joke.

The crowds have been fucking dire. The gooks only care about the skating events, everything else is dead.

"professional" Winter "sports"

That's all they show on TV there. Speed skating and fifty million replays of Kim Yuna.

Not yet

I like this one, its very comfy

I've tried to watch it twice so far. I genuinely fell asleep both times.

>tfw you'll never see Martin Brodeur be Canada's goalie again

Truly the GOAT goaltender

Even a Summer Olympics held in Aleppo would be more watchable than this garbage

Lilehamer > Torino > Salt Lake > Sochi > Nagano > Vancouver > Peongo Chango

Any Olympics >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rio 2016

shithole countries shouldn't host Olympics and Rio proved that

The question is why they insist on even hosting it. I honestly don't get the mentality of these countries. Look at Turkey even, who have never even won a medal at the winter olympics, yet wants to host the 2026 olympics for some reason. Do they enjoy funding the entertainment for westerners?

Olympic red pill:
It's like war. The Olympics is basically just a huge corporate/globalist money grab. If they weren't raking in all those taxpayers' bucks, there would be no Olympics.

it's the perfect time zone, neet party all night max comfy

Rio was such a fucking shit show it wasn't even funny.

>Brazil
>poor

My favourite part was when the Rio police robbed that swimmer and then everybody got pissed off at the swimmer because that was easier than admitting Rio was a shithole.

Pick two.

>next two olympics will also be in east asia.
Those are the cities that won the bidding. I can't imagine that anyone planned it that way.

Lemme know when a French starts crying

Rio road race was goat, weightlifting good, GB cycle track rape was business as usual, fuck the rest

redpill me on why you think vancouver was so shit Sup Forums

seemed fine to me but I was living there at the time so I must have been on propaganda lockdown

Americans are just and we got more gold medals than them. Also someone died.

>someone died
that was top memes tho wtf

Rio was terrible! It should have never happened

Wasn't Rio where that girl from some literal noncountry got the gold medal in judo or some shit?

This guy gets it. Though NBC is so fucking bad at broadcasting, and my CBC/Eurozone broadcasts are always a bit behind so I can't be in threads during events or everything gets spoiled.

It was mostly funny tho

so I'm watching couples skating for the first time, and I'm noticing the guys all have amazing looking asses.

Is this normal?

Yes. All the power in that sport comes from your legs and core, they’re probably doing unlimited squats every day.

What the fuck happened to Germany in these Olympics?
They usually cruise in the top 3

This. The last two Winter Olympics were shit. This one is extremely comfy and memorable.

Summer is a different beast, but Rio was memorable for all the wrong reasons.

Talent pool collapsed due to demographic replacement. Turks and middle easterners just can't into winter

Ice skating gives you great ass and thigs.

No one gives a shit about the winter olympics; therefore, summer olympics will always be better entertainment wise tbqhwyf

Where are you guys watching? I see it on NBC and NBCS but all they're showing is curling atm.

Yeah. It was some girl from Kosovo I think. I enjoyed that. She was a qt

These aren't the real Olympics. You can't compare them.

This. It's like some people just refuse to get comfy

Maybe my memory was bad but I thought he lied about it?

>skiing
>half the race is them jogging uphill
>This is the absolute state of the Winter Olympics

when you let your sister peg you, yes

Same thing happens in summer olympics too, just without skis..

All Brazilian cities are shit, but Rio is the worst

in the ski jumping competition yesterday most of the crowd left after the first round, and the speaker had to remind the crowd over the sound system that there were in fact two rounds. granted, it was already like 1030, windy and freezing.

FIN - USA Womens Ice Hockey today had lots of spectators though you'd think otherwise. (South) Koreans can't handle the cold outside.

now that the korean leader's sister is there, perhaps they could get some trade agreement done where south korea could rent north koreans to use as a crowd, they're probably not that picky and probably used to it back home.

Imagine if you were in Europe...

>not Albertville
Albertville was fabulous.
First opening shitshow
First girlz with gunz
First meme bump skiing
First OAR
First united Germany

It was shitpost material.

Happened today, but because she won.

>Rio road race was goat
The death march?

Is there any way to find VODs of FULL events? I can't watch them in real time because of the time difference and I don't just want to watch the results, I want to watch the whole thing.

I'd fill her VOD in an event.

..did you get that?

...

Yeah a bunch of sliding on the ice in bedazzled clothes that beats summer games. Not in a million years you soyboy.

They could hold the Olympic games in Rio in a high school gym and it would still be 10x better than this.

You only like it because half the world doesn't get winter conditions and thrust don't compete, you safe space warrior

>You only like it because half the world doesn't get winter conditions and thrust don't compete, you safe space warrior
Brits don't have winter conditions my fat friend, just an endless automn.

>South Korea
>Brazil
One eats dogs by preference, the other by necessity.

i'm a 2nd shifter so having back to back to back far east olympics is perfect for me

WARNING!!!: Your mom dies in her sleep tonight unless you type "mma is gay" in the thread below:

Get a job.

>be Dutch
>be 5'9"

Life is suffering

Is this satire?

Olympics would be improved 1000% if instead of every 1/2 hour of coverage wasn't 5 minutes of actual sports coverage followed by a 25 minute story on how horrible and rough a childhood ___ athlete had growing up with a single mother they just showed 30 mins of the actual sports and left the life stories out of it.

Cycling road race.

So many meme crashes
