Looking forward to the Olympics!
Go Canada!!
Can't wait for the Games to begin! I love the Winter Olympics and I fully credit the "Miracle on Ice" for my hockey obsession!
I need my curling fix. Haven't had it in 4 years :D. I was actually watching the Canadian Finals on the NBC Olympic Channel a few weeks ago :funny:
Just found out today a friend of mine's cousin is on the US men's Olympic hockey team (David Backes of St. Louis Blues fame) so my already very high interest in the men's hockey has peaked even more :puck::hockey::flag:.
That my friend, calls for a simple magical device called a DVR :mickey:
I can't wait until the Olympics start. They're always fun to watch. My cousin - Erin Hamlin - of Remsen, NY is competing for the US in the Women's Luge. This is her second Olympic Games and she has a great chance to win a medal. Go Erin!!!:party:
They had some great skating on this weekend and we have a great U.S. team going. Love Rachel Flatt, she can do a triple axle like no one else right now.
Yes, and Johnny Weir! I wasn't sure he was going to make it, but I love watching him. He always brings an element of the unexpected with him. My daughter's friend was watching the exhibition skate post competition, and she told my daughter that "some middle aged guy" was skating to Poker Face. I thought, Poker Face? It has to be Johnny Weir, but he's twenty-five! So, I feel old now. :)
I'm ready too but wish it didn't start the same weekend as Daytona!
I wish Sasha Cohen had shown up at the long program. The story of her career. :( Oh well, hope these two young girls can show the world what they've got. So ready for it all to begin!
Sherri, I totally missed the men's, I like him, too. Poor Sasha, she did such an awesome short. Did you hear the Pirates music?? Loved it, no wonder that girl placed. I think what's great about having teenagers is they just go out there with raw nerve.
Ooh, I'm so excited, we have Tampa Bay peeps in the pairs, and they are good!! The only thing in the town (Ellenton) where they train is this skating rink and an outlet mall!
Figure Skating?!? Can't we go back to talking about a man's sport like Curling? ;)
Scar, next time you go to Florida, go to St. Pete, you would love the shuffleboard tournaments!!
