Let The Games Begin

It is time for the return of the Winter Olympics. It has been four years since Torino and I must say I'm very excited to see the Winter Games back. To me, the Winter Games seems fresher and more extreme. Now many may not be that but the fact that they involve freezing temperatures that no Ancient Olympian wouldn't have thought of is really intriguing.

What sports specifically am I wanting to see? Believe it or not, I'd actually like to see curling. Yes it is very boring but seeing it once every four years makes it exciting. Hockey is of course one of the sports that is most watched and I will try to pay attention to that as well even though Team USA is far from the favorite.

But the sport I want to see the most is Speed Skating. I'm looking forward to seeing already 2 time Gold Medalist Apolo Anton Ohno. He is the draw for me in the sport and quite frankly it is fun to just see one of the races anyway. Not only that but Steven Colbert will be involved with the speed skating team however minor.

Of course we must remember the true meaning of the games: Unity. That means countries putting aside their differences and coming together for some international competition and showing of true sportsmanship. And also beating the hell out of Canada.

P.S. By the way, Canada, WHERE'S THE SNOW?!?!
