I am a Chef, so as a 20 year old I spend 4 Years in St Moritz Switzerland, really got into Winter sports ( what brought me to the Adirondacks from NYC...) I got to go down in a 4 man Bosleigth, ride of my life... Enjoy the skiing, specially downhill and syuperG, Curling is concentration and mechanics sport, like golf, looks easy, you herl that granite thing all the way into the backboards by barely touching it, Ski jumping, remember when the idiot annoucer says he flew over the equivalent of two football fields.... Wrong he flew to the 40 yard line, the rest in down in the hole like a giant chute, they just fly down. In St Moritz I saw all of it, they have all the facilities. Snowboarding half pipe, in all seriousness tricks OK, playing loud music in your ears help your concentration? who are you kidding, its boys at play, with neat tricks, yes, athletes they are not, you dont see downhill skiers with Ipods.... I love the snow board cross, when they race each other like cars, faily new event, very exiting, Figure skating? where are the men? cant tell by the clothes, Biathlon, cross country ski , then stop and shoots at targets,..... who thought of that? Hitler? just when they are ready to upchuck their lungs they got to sto breathing and aim $%#^$&^@#* Skeleton a sport invented in Switzerland by a grocer, they where man! head first ,down the chute .......... guts. Most boring / irritating thing about the Olympics, NBC's coverage, half arse commercial ridden amateur hours, they decide what the public want to watch ( like the
former USSR) I am out, slow day at work!
