Olympics?

poppies717 · February 2014

Have you been watching? What has been your favorite event so far? Are you impressed? Disappointed? Any other thoughts/observations?

I FFC that if they made a reality show about the skating rivalry between Meryl Davis/Charlie White and Tessa Virtue/Scott Moir, I would totally watch it. I am so excited to see the final skates tonight even though I know the outcome!

Lovvvvvvve the Olympics! It's also part of my job to follow it, but I also live it. I enjoy watching freestyle ski, the snowboard disciplines, and the sliding sports (skeleton, luge, bobsleigh). And obviously hockey!

I heard on the radio that the dating/hook up app, Tinder has been wildly popular among the athletes in Sochi. I guess a few coaches have made athletes delete the app... Now that's a reality show for you!

I love it all. Mostly the skating and skiing events!

Being a native Canadian, I look forward to hockey the most, but I also enjoy watching the figure skating events, curling, and any of the ski/snowboard events where they jump and flip. Pretty much whatever they are showing in the prime time highlights is interesting and fun to watch.

Plus I get to cheer for 2 countries! (Unless it's Canada vs. USA- then I'm team Canada all the way!)

Curling is obviously my all-time favorite. DH and I were really into skeleton this year. The skiing events make me want to skip out on work and go skiing!M

Olympics! Love them so much! I really enjoy everything. Ice dancing this year is extra impressive to me. The rivalry is amazing. Hockey also is pretty awesome both male and female. And we also super love curling, even though the US isn't very good this year. Up, all of it!

I love it all! But I'm really sad they only show curling at like 3am!

And I agree @poppies717 I would love to see that reality show! I'm excited to see how they both do tonight.

We've been watching a lot of curling and some hockey. We'll watch more hockey as it gets more exciting

@poppies717 - there actually is a reality show in Canada about Tessa and Scott. I haven't watched it, so I don't know if/how much they talk about the rivalry.

I am watching hockey and that's it. Normally, I am an Olympics junkie.

poppies717 · February 2014

@nfp147 - I would love to know if they discuss the rivalry. I'm thinking of something like "Ice Dancers: Cold Stares Off the Ice"...as long as they have twizzles!
I hope they make Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir the skating prime time commentators in 2018. They are so knowledgeable and fun. I follow them on IG now!

Fun fact: the always provide condoms in the athletes village of any major games because once the athletes compete it is like the biggest frat party of all time. That's what you get when you put hundreds of super fit 20 year olds bunked up together. At least they promote safe sex!

I love the Olympics! I've been watching as much as possible, I particularly love the skiing and snowboarding. And figure skating!
