OK, two things are pissing me off.

First: I'm very happy for Jamie Sale and David Pelletier, but can we please get them off the TV? There's Jamie and Dave getting their medals. There they are watching other Canadian skaters. And look, they're all over the ads for NBC's highlight DVDs. How did Jamie and Dave get onto the Canadian ski jumping team?

I've seen more of these two than I have of Jim McKay over the last week, and that's bad.

Speaking of bad, Jimmy Roberts continues his descent into being Pat O'Brien's sub on Access Hollywood based on his pointless, uninformative, wholly pathetic "report" tonight on the drama surrounding the US women's bobsled team. It's incredibly sad when a guy who was a decent journalist turns a story that's naturally full of drama and controversey and makes it something that wouldn't even pass muster in the slot between Friends and Will and Grace.

Which is saying something given the dreck that's populated that time slot. Does anyone even remember Union Square?

My other irritant is the Finnish figure skating judge (or judges). They continuously give marks that are unexplainably low. Take Canadian skater Jennifer Robinson. Her required elements gave scores from 5.0 to 5.4... except for the Finn, who tagged her with a 4.8. The Finns were also the people who put Alexander Abt of Russian 10th in the mens' competition, 5 spots lower than his actual finish.

I assume the latter case is the Finns getting back for decades of being stuck in the Soviet sphere of influence, but the other marks I can't explain geopolitically. Perhaps they're jealous that the rest of us get the sun for normal periods of time during the winter.
