The 52nd to like
its cool how you guys are pointing out the fact that some of these competitors are gay but i cant wait till we live in a time where it just doesn't even have to be mentioned. like who gives a fuck who there fucking, i just wanna see them do cool tricks in the air.
oh b.s. 1st openly gay athlete. ever heard of figure skater brian boytano or johnny weir?
1st off WatchMojo, in figure skating, when it comes to pairs and ice dance, you say the female's name first. Then the male…THEY'RE ICE DANCERS!!!!! NOT PAIRS! THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE! I love Ashley, but I don't think it's right to put her name there if she's only an alternate. Sure, there's a chance with alternates, but I hope that Karen Chen, Mirai Nagasu, and Bradie Tennell stay healthy. Nathan Chen, yeah, he's a BEAST when he's ON.
Because you only have followers from US…
Everyone like winter Olympics
Now can WatchMojo do a list of Canadian Athletes to watch for. I mean they are based in Montreal after all. GO CANADA GO!!!!!
Go Canada Go!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm Canadain
FAP OLYMPICS or nothing
what about Erin Jackson in speed skating?
You know the majority of your subscribers aren't even american. Irrelevant video
here before 5k?
Can we get a Canadian list?
Big old "nope!" to #10, 9, & 1.
What about Nick Goepper
No hockey players? The USWNT is consistently ranked high on the national level, and players like Hilary Knight and Amanda Kessel are considered just as good (if not better) than their NHL counterparts!
Ashley Wagner??? Really??? The stuckup overly privileged skater who is never going to be Olympic podium worthy because she can't consistently land her jumps on one foot? You should have put Mirai Nagasu on here. She's the only skater out of the 3 American females going to the Olympics who is going to attempt a triple axel. It's a move that can make or break her chances of landing on the podium. Compared to Ashley Wagner she's been the only one close to the podium, coming in 4th in Vancouver 8 years ago.
Apparently the greatest snowboarder ever going for a 3rd gold medal is lower on the totem pole than being openly gay or old sad
Why do we feel the need to point out ANYONE'S sexuality. (For any reason) it certainly has no implications for a sporting event. No should it matter for any other reason. I dont see you pointing out that this pwrson or that pwrson is straight!
Erin Jackson definitely should have been on this list
just make a list with the top 10 of all athletes who are participating, even though only norwegians would be on that list.
omg I was so nervous that Gus Kenworthy didn't make the list and then he was number 1! Thats awesome. I started following him after I saw him at the X games last year and watching him live was the craziest most awesome thing I have ever seen. GO USA!! CANT Wait for next week!!
Plzzz
Top 10 socks to wear during September

Lol @ people butthurt cuz this is an American list…USA is the only country that matters!
USA! USA! USA!
