Alpine events rock! Just damn nice skiing.

Curling. Where else can you drink yourself silly and still be considered an athlete? This could have had bowling but curling has a longer history.

Actually glad they dropped the ski dancing. Remember that from years’ ago?

Every thing about the sporting world on the grand scale is just starting to look like a display of excess to me. Excess of a lot of things. Snow boarding is something able bodied people with free time and interest should try to get their kicks with if they “got snow”. A world wide sport? I don’t get it… most of the world doesn’t have much snow or financial freedom to develop these overblown hobbies. Bring on global warming.

My big gripe is all the back story stuff being shown when they could be showing actual events. In the 90’s I lived up in WA state, just across the border from Vancouver – it was great because I could tune away when Bob Costas was rambling on or Jim McCay was doing some heartfelt story about some Olympian – and I could watch the 3 Canadian channels I got over the air. Allowed me to see the non-American athletes. The coverage on NBC seems to focus on very few athletes with excessive filler.

Not sure if curling should be an Olympic event – it’s like bocce ball on ice… but it’s fun to watch the strategy involved…

Ice dancing should NOT be an Olympic event… It’s right up there with rhythmic gymnastics in the summer Olympics. Pretty, but not Olympic.
