Default The Olympics

Any interest in the Olympics? I know Bass watches figure skating but who else is watching?

While I appreciate the hard work by these athletes, I don't watch any of it and I kinda get sick of the constant TV coverage too.

Maybe that's because I'm and not a sports fan?

So are you tuning in?

I do try to watch as much as I can and have always enjoyed the olympics. I agree with more sport less blah blah blah. TV stinks so badly; football is done, the Bruins are painful to watch (excecpt for the last three games), I don't care for basket ball so the Olympics are a welcome change.

I watch the snowboard stuff - particularly Snowboard Cross. Only event in the Olympics where competitors are on the course at the same time in a race to the finish.

I'll follow the hawt womens downhill skiers that have been making the rounds on the morning shows. Other than that the only other attention it will get is if it's on in the background.
