    Sochi Olympics 2014! Official "Olympic Discussion" thread.

    in Off-Topic General

    Posted

    Real good question.

    All bias aside, I say Canada gets silver. The US has taken their training to a whole new level. When you look at the cuts they made to their roster, they clearly sent a message that they want new blood taking over the team. They replaced Julie Chu as captain with Meghan Duggan who is much younger. We replaced Wick with Caroline Ouellette but Caro is only a year younger than Wick.

    In the end, the US might be victims of inexperience. But if all their rookie Olympians can play through the pressure, I think they'll have us beat. We haven't been able to keep up with their speed and strength.

    But, that being said, Canada does have a tendency to come into the Olympics on a losing streak. They look like underdogs but then they step up when it matters most. So it'll be interesting to see what happens.

    It would probably be a good thing for the sport for someone other than us to win gold. But, knowing a lot of the Canadian players on a semi-personal level as I now do, I want them to win this one so that players like Wick, Caro, Hefford, etc can retire with a bang. After all they've done for the sport, they deserve it. But, win or lose, it won't change their legacy so I guess whatever is best for the sport is what should happen.

    Thanks for the great answer!

    Congrats to the Dufor-Lapointe sisters and the whole family for such a massive accomplishment!

    The tears have begun already folks. And I'm sleep deprived. Was watching women's hockey at 4:30 am. #WorthIt

    Hey! Quick question, you seem to be the best person to ask for this, do you believe the women's hockey team will win gold? They haven't been so great against the Americans lately from what I have gathered.

    Putting all bias aside, do you think they are strong enough?

    All PS3 games should be coming to PS4 with that Gaikai video game streaming thing on it's way.

    No word on when it comes to Canada, was first said to come along side the US launch but recently Sony said no word on when it will come to Canada.

    Could someone recommend me a game for PS4? I have COD ghosts and have Watch dogs preordered. right now I'm looking at infamous and driveclub. anything else I should be getting?

    Drive Club will be free for PS+ Users... however with less cars and tracks, and possibly an option to upgrade the game to full version. So could try it out first for free while buying Infamous, and if you like it enough, go ahead and buy the full version.

    Any good tips and workouts on getting your arms built and buffed at a quick rate? At the moment, whenever I use dumbbells for arm day, I've stuck myself at 20s most of the time and end with one set of the next weight higher.

    Start with the heavier weight first, you'll be able to do more and more reps of it each and every time. Doing it at the end isn't giving it all you have, its giving it all you have LEFT! Hard to progress moving up weights the way you are doing it. However getting buff and at a quick rate? No such thing, just hard work and years of working out.

    Some people can make gains with sticking to lower weights, some need higher weights.

    So NBA 2k14 is good for ps 4? I'm gonna get a ps4 and will need a game to play. Also, Netflix is only 8$ a month?? I have always just torrented but with netflix you can get all tv shows and movies? Sorry I'm s netflix nub..

    I love NBA, havent had server problems in a long time ( was absolutely unbearable for awhile )

    I mainly love it because I can play a bunch of my friends who have it, other than that it doesnt have a lot of content, really watered down.

    Lame ending, hate how the past Wrestlemania' have been old superstars who decide to come back for a few weeks and get given a spot at Wrestlemania and then go back into hiding with their big paychecks.

    Last two years... Lesnar, The Rock, Triple H, Undertaker, HBK, Batista?

    Probably more, haven't payed too much attention.

    Hey gents n gals, where are the most affordable places to buy Protein Powder/Creatine? I'm new to the whole supplement/vitamins game. Thanks!

    Bodybuilding.com usually has much cheaper prices than stores like GNC and Popeyes. Even cheaper if you order it to the states.

    I read something a couple days ago how Microsoft and Sony aren't releasing any more units until bugs are worked out. Take it for what it's worth I just can't remember where I read it.

    Every BestBuy in America released large shipments last Saturday. This week Amazon, GameStop, FutureShop BestBuy here in Canada have been getting consoles.

    Xbox' are already filling the shelves where I live since it was released so...

    I don't think I've been recovering properly as my right arm is still sore every time I lift it up.. But that's probably my fault for not having the proper nutrition at home before I went and worked out.... Oh well I'll figure it out

    You just started going back to the gym, thats expected, don't worry it'll be less sore after workouts each time.

    Also I've read that instead of eating 3 big meals a day, it should be concised down to 5 to 6 meals a day... I do like to snack a lot so I'm just wondering what are good options for food to snack on? I love snacking on unsalted almonds

    Wait are you cutting or bulking? If cutting beware almonds pack a bunch of calories. If you are bulking well then I'll suggest the king, Milk. Easy calories, slam 5-6 glasses a day, tons of protein. Some people even drink a gallon a day!

    Some people enjoy the soreness. easing your way in might not be the way to go for everyone.

    I love feeling a little tightness/sore however theres a huge difference between working out the first time and being crippled by soreness and the average soreness you get from working out.

    But doesn't even look like the guy came back to read our advice so whatever haha.
