I concur, Ohno is amazing.

Also, I have finally begun to enjoy hockey this Olympics, so those games have been pretty awesome.

A curling match is like a car accident...no one really ever goes around looking for one to watch but if they happen across one they can't help but keep watching...

Why not? The Olympic Sports are about being the best of the best. If you bar the people who are so good they get payed for it, are you truly seeking out the best?

My favorites were figure skating and snowboarding.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

IMO, no one should get paid for running, jumping, and throwing things in the first place. I would get punished for such awful behavior.

A Lol. B The Olympics used to be a stage where people without world wide prestige could get a moment in the spotlight. Maybe its just me but I wonder how the people who went up against s. white in snowboarding felt.

The funniest part of the olypmics was when the commentator said 'The Mctwist, the Whitesnake, the Double double with extra tomato.' I can't wait to see what these guys are doing for tricks next year. That trick is insane.
