[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 338165, member: 3373"] Normally watch a lot of he Olympics but very little this year. Just doesn't have the appeal with no fans and little excitement. Add in that it's in China and that lessens the appeal a great deal. The young lady who is competing for the Chinese, haven't seen her at all, or any of the skating for that matter, but it's not unusual for some athletes to compete for another country than where they live. Not good enough to make the US team and have some citizenship ties to another country, probably the only way to be in the Olympics. Did watch the US men and women curl against ROC yesterday. Women won easily and men in extra ends. Have never seen world class curling curl as bad as the Russian women. Lost track of the number of missed shots. Reminded me of myself when I used to curl in the local curling league which was a lot like softball where beer is also involved. Didn't see any of the Russian women fall but the rest of the game wasn't pretty. [/QUOTE]
