Winter Olympics 2014

Anyone excited for the Winter games, being hosted at lovely Sochi, Russia. Home of piss colored toxic water, double toilets, broken elevators, doorknobs, randomly locked doors, etc.
Staying In Sochi Is A Hilarious Adventure

Oh, apparently you also aren't allowed to fish in their toilets either, the madness!

The fun of Russian fuck ups aside, anyone planning to watch any of the games? I can't wait for some curling action. Also the ice hockey and speed skating. Bobsled and Luge another favorite of mine for the winter games, like to check out some of the skiing too.

Pretty much I like most of the winter games stuff (compared to the summer games I seem to only watch a small percent of), I guess it is the lack of snow in the desert or something? *shrugs* Anyways, what are you folk excited for, if anything?

By the way is the Swedish womens curling team still pretty hot?

Ill be watching as much as i can. Gonna get my fill definitely of hockey (as if i havent had enough already with nhl and college), curling, snowboard half pipe, speed skating, bobsled and of course any and all skiing events.

The Hockey Tourney is going to be killer.

I love the Winter Olympics. I'll be glued to all of the bobsled, luge, skeleton events, plus the hockey, skiing and snowboarding. The only events that blow are the figure skating crap. At least they don't televise the compulsory events anymore......watching some girly men try to skate perfect figure 8s isn't my idea of nail-biting competition.

Definitely more of a Winter vs Summer Olympics watecher. Luge is just insane. Bobsled, speed skating, snowboard, and skiing, esp Super-G, are also a blast.

Watching some of the curling, and Great Britain women's team looks pretty hot. Thought U.S. looked good as well (despite being older).

Missed the short track speed skating stuff, hoping they'll put it on the recap later (looks like will be, guess they can cover other events at the game til figure skating comes back).
