I am so NOT a sports person. I'm just not. I was always the last picked for gym. They probably would have paid to have me traded to another team if they could.
But, I do enjoy the Olympics and am looking forward to watching the Winter Games during recovery from surgery. I'm also finding that I really enjoy "Extreme" Sports. (Watching them that is!) I watched a snow boarding race today and really got into it. Those guys (and ladies) really fly down that course. They all race together, which, I think, makes for a more exciting time.
I've discovered that the commercials aired during these sportscasts are much more creative and innovative than the cr*p they air during so-called "prime time". I can actually stand to keep the sound up and watch them.
Somehow, those extreme sports give me faith in the younger generation. They really take the term "go for it" to a whole new level.

I like the extreme sports too, the weightlifting thing ( not sure what it is exactly, they just lift heave barbells and then drop them)
and the ice skating.
Looking forward to those :)
I like the winter Olympics. The first Olympics I remember were the Winter Olympics of '68. Peggy Flemming in ice skating. The luge (sp?).
