Got sick of watching curling but other then that it was awesome.

The hockey of course was the best

And the bobsled like always was so damn cool.

Olympics stated off bad (death of Luge guy) but thank god there were no other issues.

what was up with the snow. i heard there were lots of issues with not enough snow leading up to the start.

Kicked ASS!

Would have traded all other medals for that hockey GOLD.

Yep no snow up here this winter. I heard its all in Texas. Great Olympics anyways. Vancouver is an awesome city. The hockey was the only thing that kept me from working on my Camaro. lol
Gold, how sweet it is!!

Record warm temperatures were the reason. But they did a great job to get it all together.

The alpine skiing, cross country, ski jumping and sledding events were at Whistler which is about an hour or so drive from Vancouver. There was lots of snow there.

I have to agree they were great and the hockey was amazing. Only problem is I had to watch on NBC, which doesn't compare to CTV/CBC when it comes to comentary.I lived in Vancouver for awhile and it is a great city, my brother still lives there and was telling me about how crazy it was.

the hockey ROCKED! the down hill stuff (super G, moguls, etc.) was good all the sledding was fun, but If I had to watch one more figure skating routine I was going to blow up that TV station!! cross country skiing sucked, biathlon? WTF totally sucked, and ICE dancing OMG just gouge my eyes OUT!!
