Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
I like the modern snow sports, like moguls and snowboarding, as well as hockey and short-track speed skating.
The opening ceremony was quite impressive, not as large as China's but just as technological and new, except for the huge malfunction when they went to light the torch at the end. Gretzky's face was hilarious.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
Actually the snowboarding events were invented to give the USA a shot at winning something. After all....no way the other countries stoners can take the US stoners?

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
I'm interested in the hockey, luge, bobsledding, and snowboard/skiiing, but mostly interested in hockey. USA is my first rooting interest but I feel like if we get knocked out in hockey I wouldn't mind seeing Russia win, or at least see Canada lose. I got into bobsledding only because of Cool Runnings though, I love that movie lol.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
I am just thankful it's on NBC, and there are no shows I actually like being pushed aside for it. I can watch my shows, and y'all can watch the Olympics. Enjoy.

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
I can't stand NBCs coverage.
I love watching most of the sports but I just can't deal with a commercial every two minutes. Costas and Collinsworths feel good stories make it feel like inside the NFL. Just show the damn event uninterrupted! I don't care if there isn't commentary just show it instead of previews for the new season of crappy shows for middle aged america. |

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
I can't get enough curling. It's so bad it's awesome. I almost signed up for curling lessons a few years ago, but then I got a job and had to relocate

Re: Winter Olympics Who's Watching
I'll admit to watching the curling. However, the living room TV died yesterday (vizo gv42l) so there'll be quite a bit less watching going on unless we move another TV into here.
