Do you care about the Winter Olympics?

[Iron Patch]

I sure as heck don't, and will probably only watch any of it by default as nothing else will be on. I'd be surprised if more than 1 in 10 Canadian gives a damn (hockey is the one) and I'll up that to 1 in 50 for the US.

The Summer Olympics I watch a bit more mostly for the boxing and even that's a pain as the coverage is too random.

Just because you don't play sports doesn't mean you can't be an athletic supporter.

But the answer to the question is still no.

I like the free-style down-hill skiing (the one with all the jumps and flips, etc, and the agony of defeat).

Other than that, not so much - the 100 mph luge is sometimes good. But I really hate that they are taking up all of the evening NBC programming (NBC this year).

No, I really don't. Which country is better? I would rather feed the hungry children around the world with the money they put into the Olympics.

Yes, that would be a much better way to spend the money but the problem is it's better than just about everything else that goes on in the world too.

Does she ski in the nude?

That would sure raise some interest.

Sounds like the answer is no so I'll still pass. But if something changes make sure to let me know!

I have my people keeping abreast of such developments. If something is revealed I'll be sure to let you know.

I would care more if they had an event for downhill racing on a piece of cardboard. I could do that one. (They actually have that event sometimes over here at Copper Mt. sometimes. Not Olympic sanctioned.) What we hear up here in Summit County is Lindsey Vonn may not do anything if her shin doesn't heal.

Um, not until they include the metal detecting championships.
My wife watches every bit of it. ( it's cool, It's cool)
This is why I'm zoned on t-net all night.
Thank you t-net

I might watch the ski gig.

I'm all for them. I enjoy watching all the winter Olympics. There is not too much of the summer ones that I like to
watch. I stayed up last night to watch all of the Grand Entry and the opening exercises and the lighting of the
eternal flame It was a fabulas event and enjoyed every minute of it. It was the best one I have ever seen and I've
watched most of them for several years back. Canada really did a great job with it.
It was about 12:30 by the time it was over but it was worth it, as far as I'm concerned.

Eric Rudolph pretty much ruined it for me. July 27, 1996

Without looking I'm guessing that was the Atlanta bombing. For some reason it's one of those things I remember where I was.... in a bar and seen in on tv. It was just before I moved back to the east on Aug. 2nd.
