[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 115913, member: 3373"] I agree with others who don't like certain commentators. I also get tired of soap-box rants. Nonetheless I do have the ability to tune those people out and concentrate on the athletes and the games. I often wondered how some commentators became such experts considering I'm pretty sure most of them have never been in competition anywhere near that level. Most interviews are fun to listen to as long as there is no editorializing. As mentioned earlier that is the thing about Canadian coverage, realizing that most of you don't have that option but it is certainly a different and refreshing viewpoint. Have to live closer to the border and even then it isn't always available. Most Canadian commentators spend time on the event and less on themselves. Egos don't appear as large. [/QUOTE]
