Ian was going over the course with Jill, so I think that the whole team jumps again, and the US can probably drop score since they’ll have 4 jumping.
I think they ALL go to the jumpoff, again with one drop score.
GO CANADA GO!!!
let’s see if i can find live feed… (watching it on Bold right now)

Will all the riders jump off? What are the rules here?[/QUOTE]
I’m not sure the riders are certain of the rules! You could hear them discussing it in the background.
Wow, this is exciting!
Only 3 horse jumped off last time because the Swedes decided to not let their 4th rider go as they know they wouldn’t get the time, so they handed the medal to the US.

It sounds like they all go, I heard someone say US is going first since they have 4 riders, and Canada has 3. Wow.
OMG I Can’t stand it!!!
ARGH!
GO CANADA! GO IAN!
ARGH!
GO USA! GO BEEZIE!!
GO, OLD FOGIES, GO!
Sometimes it SUCKS being a Canadian married to an American!!!
Thank god I would hate them to have to choose 1 rider. Eric will be the man who delivers the Gold!!
How long of a delay…? I have to leave by 10:40 AM EST…and I don’t want to miss a minute!
Go Canada Go!! I am trying to focus on work and it is freakin impossible!! I feel sick to my tummy…I am so happy for both teams – North America takes the gold and silver. Now that is wicked cool!
That sucks we only have 3 to choose from…
I feel like the US has really shown that we can hang with the Euro teams.
GO USA!!!
Has there ever been an Olympic jump off before?
This edge of the seat jumping!

Me too…but apparently it on regular CBC
OMFG we only have three riders too…I’ve just added a HUGE dollop of Bailey’s to my coffee
Heard that too while they were talking, but wouldn’t the original order of go hold for the jump-off, just like a normal show? Ah, but this IS the FEI!
(WRT to US going first in JO)
They are announcing 12 minutes…
Ahhhh can’t breathe, heart racing! How incredible for both teams! Makes up for stupid tropical storms. If I’m stuck inside at least I get to watch this.

I may be rooting for US, but Ian Miller is a GOD![/QUOTE]
HE IS! I have worshipped him since I was a little kid, was fortunate to ride out of his barn and could not want this more for anyone on earth. He is a master horseman and my absolute hero.
For those that aren’t aware, Ian lost his wife earlier this year so to be able to go out there and do this makes me even respect him more.
We had a jump off in Athens for Silver, that turned to Gold when Ludger’s horse tested positive for a banned substance.
Did anyone notice that Authentic did not step on the water line? She shouldn’t have gotten the 4 faults.
