I'm sure I wont get to watch much of the Games even though Winter Olympics are my fav.

Our best friend (and my M-F Richmond roomie) is headed to Canada on Feb 10th to attend with her sister. This is their second Olympics trip with China being the first.

Color me envious.

I think Curling is campy....there needs to be a t~shirt! :D

I also love:

*Downhill
*Whatever they call that ski jump thing (I find myself leaning forward with them! Does anybody do that, too?)
*Ice skating (but I agree somewhat with MsD...though not totally or she'll get all smug and chit)
*Some snowboarding (because I like that wild redheaded boy)
*Speed~skating (I make the turns with 'em....and I like that Ohno, kid, just for his name...OH NO!!!! )

I do not get cross~country skiing with the rifle and whatever....do folks go hunting on skis?


16 DAYS!!!!!
:happyjump:

Thanks for reminding me that there are a couple of things that I don't like about the O's. I don't like the murder practice sports. I'm guessing that folks do hunt on skis because folks gotta eat in the winter. Back before the invention of grocery stores, I'm guessing this is how they caught food. Now, it's just disturbing (don't anyone bother blasting me for not liking murder practice sports, I'm the only one in my family who's not an NRA member, so I've heard it all before).

I *cough* agree *cough~cough* with You, MsD....

I do not like the murder sports.....of course, Jack might come in here and tell us that we might HAVE to kill a squirrel when the big bomb splatters us.

BUT I'M NOT GONNA DO IT ON SKIS, dammit! :goodscore:

Shaun White and he's pretty good with a skateboard too.

I forgot about this one, probably because I don't ever watch it. My brother would probably hunt on skis, if it were necessary.

I also love the fact that these are people that compete their whole lives for something that might just be a one time thing. A chance to win a medal for their country...not a multi million dollar paycheck so they can buy the biggest house on the block and 9 cars, but for the chance to be a hero to their counrty.

I am really looking forward to it all!
Yanno, reading your post, there were two images that came to mind. One, Kerry Strug. That girl did GOOD and only on one leg! Two, the 1980 US Hockey team. Absolutely fantastic!

One of my bosses still has ties to his old job, which just so happens to be one of the events coordinating companies for the Olympics. Yeah, he gets to go to them. ALL of them. Color me all shades of green. :D

I know how to skin and cook a squirrel, but it's not something I like to practice.

I guess if I HAD to, I could hunt WITH a ski.....that thing would pack (yes I said 'pack') a powerful wallop!

~12 Days~

:olympics:

The PNW has been having unseasonable warm temperatures. It could have an impact as they may have to make snow for some of the events. Not the best year for it to be warm up here.

Linus 02-01-2010 02:00 PM
Should be done as demonstration sport

Can they move the skiing and outdoor events to somewhere else close-by where it is colder? Whoever said there wasn't global warming this is just one more example of it.

Just_G 02-02-2010 01:07 PM
Is it time? is it time? is it time? when? when? when?

I am getting so excited! :clap:

G,

The Super Bowl is on Sat. Feb. 7th on CBS and starts about 6:30pm.

The Olympics - The Opening Ceremony is on Friday Feb. 12th. I am not sure of the times or dates of what sports are on what days. Once I do, I will post them for you.

Thanks Andrew! I am not a fan of any teams in the Superbowl, wanted both to lose in the playoffs, so I am only going to the superbowl parties on sunday for the free food! :winky:

Let me know about the olympics for sure!

What..? What about the commercials?

Peach 02-02-2010 10:57 PM
we bought all our decorations today. black and gold, mardi gras beads, can you guess who we are rooting for?

Andrew, Jr. 02-08-2010 12:25 PM
Vancouver - 4 days, 7 hours, 30 minutes
 
I just saw the USA's uniform. It was designed by Ralph Lauren. It is a navy jacket with a red stripe on the arm, and pockets, and the pony/rider on the breast area; White Turtleneck Shirt and White Pants, and an alpine ski hat that has moose, flags, & evergreens all over it. The only thing I didn't catch is the shoes and gloves. I guess white snow boots or shoes of some sort. And navy gloves. It looks really sharp. It was on one of the sports channels.

Well, I saw like 2 minutes of the game, and one Doritos commercial, then started up another DVD. Had no interest in the SB. Didn't even go for the free food. Didn't want to hear "who dat" all night long....it annoys the shit out of me!

I am so ready for the olympics to start!! USA USA USA!!!!
