Quote from: Spaniel with a Short Tail on February 17, 2026, 02:05:40 PMJust watched the American get hosed from getting the Gold in freestyle big air. His last jump significantly longer than the Norwegian who beat him with the same difficulty and execution, yet the Norwegian got a slightly higher score. Unbelievable! (Full disclosure: I have 60 minutes of television viewing knowledge how this sport is judged.)

I just watched too, and thought that doesn't look good medal winning.  The kid from Fairfield looked like a winner.

The Norwegian must have had more $tyle that the judges could see.

Do you feel the judges in general have been anti Team USA?  I saw the replay and agree with your assessment of the situation.

I don't think the judges have been anti-American.  The commentators did say the Norwegian kid did something risky and different and weren't sure how the judges would score it.

Okay.  Perhaps I am biased.

NBC probably could've scrapped the profile when the featured athlete didn't even get top 10 in her event tonight.
