Watching the Winter Olympics from Torino is not that glorious. Take curling for example. Take it and send it back to Scotland. Throw it back in the registry.
At the very least, there should be no men’s teams in curling. The US men’s team is so lousy that one player threw a rock that missed the red line and was disallowed. The previous shot was from 10 yards in front of the bull’s-eye. I have not seen a woman make such bad shots. Leave the game to checkers and leave it out of the Olympics.
It’s okay, I’m sorry I hurt your feelings. leave it in Show it on TV at 1:00 am
Ice dancing is not a sport. Just because a group of finalists fell on their padukas doesn’t mean it’s the case. Sobbing stories on the side don’t make ice dancing interesting. I’ll say this for ice dancing, it’s better than celebrity ballroom dancing, which sucks.
It’s okay, I’m sorry I hurt your feelings. Leave the ice dance inside. Show it on TV at 3:00 am
Doing intricate ski jumps in the fog at night seems stupid to my wife. She says, “They could die.” I tell him the cameras are very far away so they see mostly fog and the skiers can see pretty well under the wonderful lights. (Anyway, that’s what one of the announcers said.) My wife said, “If so, why are they throwing pine needles on the dirt ramp so the skiers can see the ground?”
Damn, that was a crash landing. If it weren’t for the fog, I might have seen it. I’m sure the skiers can see even if I can’t.
Show intricate skiing and ski jumping only on sunny days.
One thing I don’t like about the Olympics is that they only give out three medals per event. The reason they have a plethora of events is so they can give away more than these three medals. If you don’t win race “A”, maybe you can win race “B”, “C”, “D”, …, “Z”.
I say give more medals each race as follows:
Gold: For the winner.
Silver: For the one who skipped breakfast.
Bronze: For the one who was sick all night or in the hospital before the race.
Hierro: For the one who said he was going to take everything but didn’t.
Copper: For the one who skipped training last week.
Aluminum: For the girl who slipped and hit her knee or the boy who missed his sled jump.
Puter: For the guy or girl who came in last because of soft muscles but tried really hard.
Mercury (This metal is in a plastic ring because it’s a liquid at normal temperatures): For the guy who cheated and got kicked out of the Olympics.
Titanium: For the girl that male viewers thought was “very hot” or for the guy that female viewers thought had a “nice butt.”
Uranium: For the guy or girl who fainted right before the finish line.
The Olympic Committee will have to build a large medal presentation stand for Montreal.
