I’m happy to hear that Jamie Anderson acknowledges how scary high that jump is. Because I’m terrified just watching them. #WinterOlympics

Can't Get Enough Figure Skating
It's not just us, figure skating has taken social media by storm. What do we want? Figure skating! When do we want it? All the time!
My favorite things about ice dance include:

1- how much fun the #ShibSibs have every time they hit the ice
2- that fact the the most impressive element of each program is called a #TWIZZLE
Live TWIZZLES from the #TeamUSA Digital Command Center presented by @Oreo.

U.S. Women's Hockey Team Shuts Out The Competition, Literally
The U.S. Olympic Women's Ice Hockey Team showed up on semifinal. The women left no doubt in their 5-0 defeat of Finland as they booked their ticket to yet another gold-medal game. Awaiting them is archrival Canada. Bring it on.
The US women’s hockey team is ridiculously fast. #2018WinterOlympics

Adam Rippon Is A Team Player
Figure skater Adam Rippon has been the darling of the Olympics for Team USA. His quick wit and humor have charmed many during his interviews thus far. Fittingly, NBC invited him into the booth for the remainder of the Games. Rippon respectfully declined. His reason? He wanted to stay as much a part of Team USA as possible. Shout out to the ultimate team player, Adam Rippon.
I love being on Team USA and representing our country. My teammates were there for me during my events, and now I NEED to be there for them. I look forward to being with them, and I’m very excited for the rest of the competition. Go Team USA!!!

When the media claim a fave as their commentator without asking him and pretend it's a done deal and said fave shows clearly where his priorities lie. @Adaripp wins the Olympic gold medal for best team mate! https://t.co/aRHlNTwWQF
