Gonna Watch the Olympics?

The Winter Olympics start on Friday, but just like the Summer games
almost two years ago, there seems to be very little buzz about it.

I haven't been watching NBC-are they hyping it? I recall when the games
used to be on ABC, they did a great job building up to it, letting
viewers know who was competing. This year I don't know anybody
competing, except for Apolo Anton Ono.

Still, I'm planning to tune in just to see how it's going. But it's true
that it's not nearly the huge TV event it used to be, I think mainly
because it's very easy to see international sports competition on TV,
with all the channels we have.

Any thoughts?

Jack Bauer's Spunky Sidekick, Ian J. Ball...

I only like international hockey, so that's pro'lly the only thing I'll
watch.

I may watch Rory Gilmore's 'evil twin' ice skating (just to see Rory
Gilmore's 'evil twin'!! ice skating!), but that's about it...

Winter XGames are more interesting. (and i don't watch the Winter
XGames).

btw, on teh topic of WInter Olympics, has everyone seen Tonya "Bantha
Poodoo" Harding lately?

Kathleen M. Frederick...

I think the last time there was a buzz for the winter olympics was
1994. Maybe we need a good figure skater clubbing to get some
interest going. I volunteer Michelle Kwan.
