Hey anybody watching this stuff? Today I just saw the curling event and it was strange. What kind of sport is curling Rolling Eyes

But the snowboarding was awsome with the tricks they pull off.

I watch the snowboard matches and the figure skating...
The first one is just kewl, I like also skateboaring so it's kinda the same on snow XD The tricks they pull off very great, especially those American team... I hope Germany to beat them next time!
The second one is just fascinating *____* Especially the last 4 to go... The one Chinise woman falling into splits... It looked very *ouch*... But it was amazing how she managed to go on ^^

yah olympics are always fun, especially the opening ceremony. It's always nice to see how the stadium set up is and how the performances are going to be executed. Fireworks are great and the introduction of all the participating nations. I enjoy watching the skiing events, curling(YAH! IT GETS INTENSE!), and ice skating. Next winter olympics are in Vancouver BC in 2010, I'll be there for sure! but before then I'll enjoy watching the Olympics in Beijing and the current winter one now!

just watch it if i dont wanna go to sleep. Watched snowboarding (half pipe) and 1500s skating (mmm boring) last night. decent viewing, marginally better than the Tour de France on occasions. But Formula 1 would be my late night 'sports' TV pick.
18000 rpm screaming sounds awesome Razz

and the drivers have cool names

I have mixed feelings. It really interfered with some shows that I watch on occasion, so it made me mad there. Im not a big fan of sports, but when I watched the couple ice skating I was really calmed down by it. It was really strange but it acted as an antidepressant. i guess I saw the pure beauty of it that day.

Canada is winning hockey, as usual. But Austria won the cross country skiing, pretty amazing.
