2010 Winter Olympics

[UCGal]

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.

First things first, bring lack the extra track of the luge and get safer protective equipment. The thrill of snow sports is speed so make the tracks longer, faster and possibly include some loops (that would be sick).

Bring in some of the crazy winter xgames stuff like big air.

How about snow wrestling?

What about super 8’s in skiing?

Why not introduce some crazy heli skiing race, where teams of riders are dumped on top of some sick glacier and choppers with cameras follow them down cliffs and chutes.. would be thrilling to watch.

Maybe things would be different if the athletes weren’t making money from this. Remember when it was looked down upon for Olympians to receive commercial endorsements? Remember Mary Lou Retton on a Wheaties box and what a big deal they made out of that? I heard, you know. Not trying to age myself 😉
