Why waste time just watching when you can go on youtube and get highlights or interesting pieces. Only mAsochists watch the olympics live

I really enjoy everything about the Olympics. I have to say that I really love the ice skating. I have always wished that I could skate like they do. It is so graceful and beautiful. :)

I am not excited about any of them.  I have not watched any of it. Don't know that I will watch any of it.

It was cool to see the U.S. team is so diverse.  It was also cool to see North Korea and South Korea come together as one.

I actually forgot about the Olympics this year. There's nothing in particular I sit and watch. Although I do enjoy figure skating, they make it look so easy.

I enjoy all the ice-skating events. I think my favorite is the ice dancing. I also like to watch downhill skiing  :peace: :snowflake: :wave:

I enjoy the Winter Olympics events like ice skating and skiing for the most part.  It's nice to be able to follow all the events and learn about the culture of the host country.  NBC usually goes all out in their presentation.  However, in watching the Opening Ceremony I was rather surprised to hear Katie Couric's voice.  I hadn't read much about this year's coverage so I didn't know about the pairing of Mike Tirico, whom I like, with Couric.  Tirico is very capable; I think he's suited to be Costas' successor (and it was time in my opinion).  Couric?  Why?

Interestingly, I got a sports survey tonight about the Olympics coverage thus far so I had a chance to express my opinion.  Hope to see more opportunities like this throughout the month.

I don't get to watch a lot of it, but I really enjoy the ice skating all of it.  I would never  ever be able to do what they do and so good at it.  Skiing and the rest I can take it or leave it, but if hubby is watching and I am caught up I will watchs some of it.

I don't want to watch, as I know what North Korea does to its own people, and holds at least 3 Americans hostage, and tortures its own people.
