Winter Olympics 2010
 

I love the winter Olympics. There isn't much I don't watch..I think the Ice Skating is my favorite and I really do enjoy the curling. I get a bit bored with some of the cross country stuff but I admire those who compete.

Also, on an Olympic note--if people are coming through Seattle on their way to Vancouver please let us know. I'd be more than happy to assist B-F travelers in anyway I can.

AND we are expecting snow to start this weekend so let's hope for a very white and snowy Olympics!!

Olympic Winter Games
 

I am so looking forward to watching the Winter Games. I thought they were being held in Singapore - am I wrong? I think it will be such wonderful time for the US Teams competing. I prefer the winter games over the summer games hands down.

Curling!!! It's spell binding . Talk about being on the edge of your seat , glued to the TV. HAHAHA

2010 winter games are in Vancouver, Canada up here in the beautiful PNW. The games start on Feb 12 I think.

its not a puck its a ROCK! :)

we have tickets for the short track speed skating :canada:

I obviously did not know that--TY
I was looking at the tickets---and schedules. I'd love to take in some of the events.

And G you are correct about Harding-Kerrigan, although we still get a lot of news about Harding up here in the PNW--she lives in Oregon and still has her crazy days!

:olympics: GO USA :usa:

Uh.. Not US Hockey. Canada will kick yer butts, especially the Women's Hockey. :cheesy: :canadian: :canada:

Ya know? I know absolutely NOTHING about Ice Hockey except that Canada is good......and can probably whip (yes, I said 'whip') ANYone with one hockey stick tied (yes, I said 'tied', TOO!) behind their backs! <giggle>

I just like the intensity. :cheesy:

I really get into the speed skating the short track events are my favorite.

Do You find Yourself leaning into the curve with them when they round it? <giggle> I do!!!

Diva,

I sure do!

:olympics: :usa:

I thought I was alone in my Olympic love!

My favorites are:

Hockey - Next to football it is my favorite all time sport, period.
Speed Skating
Skiing - all of it
Snowboarding
Figure Skating

I love all of it. I love the ice skating less than I did in years past, when it was more about skating and less about jumping. The sport has gone seriously downhill since the days that I followed it voraciously. Still, it's okay.

I'm trying to clear out my Tivo so that I can watch as much as possible. If I tape and watch later, I can skip the commercials and the tear-jerker stories. Plus, since I'm working from home and have a TV in my office, I can watch all day.

I remember the last winter olympics, when Mister and I watched curling every night in bed before going to sleep - it was pretty much the only sport on that late at night. We really enjoyed it. No, seriously, we really enjoyed it.

It's going to be so different this time, since we are in the same time zone as the games. Though, I'm guessing that they'll shove all the times up to accommodate the east coast folks.
