Does anyone plan on watching the Winter Olympics? I just can't seem to get as excited for the Winter version as opposed to the Summer Version?

If you do plan to watch--which events?

if there isnt anything on I might watch some of it, but I have nothing that I really like, might watch some of the hockey.

Have to watch it I do love all sports.

Hockey, speed skating, luge, bobsled, skeleton, skiing heck everything I can. Love it all.

Shame on you BGG.

I watch an event or so when I am flipped through the channels and can't find anything else. I saw some skiing today and a bit of luge and bobsled.

**thetribe** · 02-12-2006, 02:02 AM

Has the US won any medals yet?

**CatDawg** · 02-12-2006, 03:05 AM

The winter olympics is a lot better than the summer olympics IMO. I really enjoy watching all of the winter olympic sports so I will be watching a lot of NBC over the next couple of weeks.

Don't forget USA, CNBC, MSNBC and others

**BC75** · 02-13-2006, 01:55 AM

i like the downhill

**Beef** · 02-13-2006, 02:11 PM

I love the Olympics. Don't know why. Maybe it's just because it is sports that you don't get to see too much and I can cheer for the Great 'ol US of A! :USAFlag:

**thetribe** · 02-13-2006, 03:05 PM

USA had 2 gold last night, any new gold medals today?

**CatDawg** · 02-13-2006, 09:02 PM

6 total so far I think its 4 Gold I'm sure of three, 2 silver and o bronze unless we only had three gold and that would make 1 bronze but I think it was 4 and 2.

I do like short track speed skating--but they could make it better by adding about 15 people in the race (instead of just 4).

Then--if would be like a Saturday night at Bristol!

**CatDawg** · 02-13-2006, 11:13 PM

I agree KHB.

**The Guru** · 02-14-2006, 02:57 AM

Nearly every sport!!! Man did you see the fall the Chinese pairs had in the finals!!!

your correct. USA has the most golds thus far, but i think norway has the most total with 8.

I always watch all the figure skating events with my mom, but this year I've really enjoyed every sport, especially moguls.
