Unfortunately, I was unable to comment on the Olympics yesterday, so I'll give you some of the main highlights of yesterday's events.
In the men's single free skate, it was supposed to be one of the most epic face offs in men's skating history, due to the rising, American Evan Lysacek, and the famous Russian coming out of retirement, Evgeni Plushenko, claiming his goal to become like Dick Button, with two Olympic gold medals.
And yesterday, the suspense was ended.
Evan Lysacek came away with the gold by about two points, allowing Evgeni Plushenko, to take the silver, along with japan's Daisuke Takahashi taking bronze.
Plushenko, commented, saying that a person that takes gold, should't, with out a quad jump.
And, in women's super g, America's Lindsey Vonn, took an unfortunate crash, to keep her far away from the podium.
This gave the gold to German Maria Riesch, Silver to fellow American Julia Mancuso, and bronze barely to Swedish Anja Paerson.
