Words cannot properly express my sadness at reading this news. I keep telling myself that it's all part of God's plan...a new angel was needed. But, dang, this is rough.

So is Nathan getting real costumes and not just the plain black shirt and pants (what he wore for both SP and LP in the G-P series)? If not, then I sure hope that Nathan didn't pay designer prices.

So the athletes may have to pack two sets of outfits...OAR for the opening cerem and RUS for whenever the ban is lifted? In the case of the figure skating Team Event, they might begin as "The OARs" -- since the Team Event commences one day before the Opening Cerem -- but may complete the event...

And Euros before that. Hoping they'll get on the European podium again. However, if necessary, skip Euros to be ready to slay at the Olympics.

We'll be ready for our OAR-gasms in Pyongchang! Michael, Row that Boat to Korea!!! Move those OARs!!! C'mon, Mike! (paraphrasing the Smothers Brothers)

Awwwww, shoot. :yawn:

Thanks to all for answering my question. So it's only online but could be watched on a Smart-TV screen with the right set-up configuration. Now I have to do that before Russian Nationals.

Naïve question. Is ESPN 3 a cable-TV station or is it a live-streaming option?

You're right, barbarafan. I was referring not to the Russians but to other countries who might have been licking their chops too early, before realizing that, yes, there will likely be Russians in Pyongchang, whatever the team is called (Olympic Athletes from Russia). I'm guessing that all of...

Because of Russia's very high chances to win the Team Event gold medal. Canada, USA and Japan, in that order, could move up spots.

Thanks for the clarification, Wyliefan and Erin. By premiering in NY and LA now, the film can be considered for Oscar nominations. Then take advantage of the pre-Oly hype for all other openings. Makes sense.

If this movie is premiering this coming Friday (Dec 8), then why can't I see it listed for any movie theater in the Metro Washington, DC area? Does anyone know if this is to be a "limited" or mainstream-release movie? I don't see it listed at any of the usual big movie companies (Regal, AMC, etc.).

Cheers to Russian/OAR figure skaters going to the Olympics. Sorry, Japan, USA and Canada.

http://results.nbcolympics.com/figure-skating/team-event/ladies-short-program/1793575 OK, I meticulously went through the NBCOlympics website's schedule for what will be shown on US television. Oddly, they seem to be planning on SPLITTING most figure skating events to two prime-time nights...

Or she could adopt Leonova's old Russian folk dance program. They cannot ban Russian music from skating programs, can they? I bet that a bunch of the Russian skaters at the Olympics will switch their programs to Russian folk music. Betcha.
