I absolutely LOVE the Winter Olympics! I am a big Luge, Skeleton, and Curling fan. I don't know a thing about them but I just find it entertaining to watch. The Biathlon is cool as well. For a plinker, those rifles are extremely expensive. Those 22 lr cost about $4,000.

I never watch the Olympics, Winter or Summer. I just never could get into it.Philippians 4:11-4:13 -
I haven't watched a second of it. I never cared much about the winter olympics because I am not from a cold weather environment. I never did any of those things they do in these games. Hockey was the only sport I would watch much in the past of it. But since it has become professionalized I don't watch it at all now.Kentucky fan since 1971.Comment

Winter Olympics > Summer Olympics 8 days a week. speed skating is better than track, skiing is better than swimming, that thing with the guns and the skis is pretty cool, and I can't believe curling is a thing. Also, the addition of snowboarding events to the last few Olympics has been a positive.
We went to the Adirondacks on our honeymoon in 2012, and stayed about an hour outside of Lake Placid. The Olympic Training Center is a tourist attraction now, and for about $75 you can take a bobsled ride. Sadly, it wasn't cold enough.Comment

Winter Olympics are my favorite, but I like winter better than summer.
I don't really care for the biathlon or cross country skiing. Those would be more exciting if grizzlies were randomly released somewhere on the course.
Downhill skiing, ski jump, bobsled, luge, speed skating and curling have always been favorites since i was a kid. The addition of the snow boarding events are a huge plus and have moved up the ladder of my favorite sports - probably behind the downhill skiing events.Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.

I like both Olympics and watch every second I can. I love competition and especially when the USA has a chance at a medal. Speed skating is fast and exciting, but that women's relay event never made sense to me.John 3:3

I used to love it. I am busy enough now that it is very difficult to watch enough to maintain my interest. We also stay a day behind as we have turned to watching stuff we like on demand rather than live.Originally posted by John Stuart Mill​He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that...

If you're like me and think NBC's live coverage blows, the NBC Sports App on your Apple TV/Amazon/Roku devices will show basically any event you want to watch, which is nice for those events that don't get covered enough (basically anything except figure skating).Comment

Short track seems awfully random for my taste. It's like someone was watching NASCAR and said, "Hey lets create a sport for all the speed skaters who were too short to be elite that functions like this. Crashes are entertaining" It is exciting I suppose.Originally posted by John Stuart Mill​He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that...
