Looking forward to the US coverage of events. That is, the only live stuff they show is US athletes, and in between the live stuff, they show highlights of the US stuff from less-popular sports.
Some interesting new events this year. I do look forward to the Olympic hockey tourney. That's about the only time that I care too much about professional hockey.
Yeah that's weird, I prefer the Pilot and Bombadier setup to the Pilot and Co-Pilot. Especially in exposed open areas, that way you can't get snuck up on.
Olympic Hockey is the only thing I watch with any consistency. Love watching it.
I'm even more excited this year because of the larger ice size. Should open up the games considerably.
Yeah I like hockey and also the moguls are usually pretty interesting. Super cool how fast they go and also seeing what jumps they can land and go right back to moguling.

I used to watch women's figure skating with my mom and sisters when I was a kid. I didn't watch it for a long time after I stopped being a kid, but now I watch it again with Betsy. I suppose Martin will watch with us this year.
I think that's the only event anyone in this house is interested in for the Winter.
Hello, my name is Vladimir. I am a beer for uber hetero men who ride horses while topless and carrying knives. I am a beer to mark the 2014 Winter Olympics. But I am not for gays. Love wrestling burly men on the Judo mat or fishing in your Speedos? Then this is the beer for you!

I can't believe they wanted to get rid of one of the oldest sports, to make room for wake-boarding and rollerblading...
Back to Sochi. I can't believe after all the homophobia and hate, they designed their men's bathroom like this:
I used a pilot to co-pilot last time I was at Philmont with this view:

Really most of it but the idea of people flying down a tobbogan track at 100s of km/h excites me
Yeah it'll be hard for me not to root for team Canada with Toews, Sharp, and Keith there from the Blackhawks.
At least Kane will be on team USA. :-)
Go Canada eh!

I'm pretty excited to see Shaun White rip it up. I might have to bust out the N64 for some 1080 snowboarding.
