Does anyone actually watch the Winter Olympics?

I had it on for a few minutes the other day and they had these guys sliding stones on the ice and brushing the ice really really fast and it looked weird. O_O

yep, mostly snowboarding and hockey. mcmorris is from my city and it's surreal to think we have mutual friends

I enjoy watching the Olympics but sometimes the announcer is more entertaining than the actual sport.
I'm surprised at how many different events they can have for figure skating (men's free style is probably my favorite as all their moves make them look so sassy).
Moguls looks painful just to watch and I'd be terrified of skiing/snowboarding backwards.
Personally, it's really interesting to see people lose by only fractions of a second.

EVERY time I see it there's just figure skating, and they're very talented and all but they all have the SAME 10 TRICKS.
So boring.

Curling. What could make a sport better than the winning team taking the losing team out for drinks afterwards?

At the moment, I spend almost all my time on that instead of watching animes or dramas. (alpine skiing, freestyle skiing, figure skating, short track, snowboarding and hockey are my favourites). GO CANADA ~

Well... except that one. I don't really care about curling much, either. And yeah, that's called curling.
I watch it as much as I watch summer Olympics. I like the skiing ones and figure skating. Freestyle skiing is pretty boss.

yes, then again i'm Canadian so maybe that has something to do with it. Gotta support the winter sports since we're not that great at the summer ones

Yeah, that's curling. It's kinda a joke to a lot of people. I really enjoy watching the various ski and snowboard events though
