I probably can't because most of the stuff will happen while I'm in class. If I were able to watch then it would only be hockey.

I never watch those opening ceremonies. And I'm not gonna watch much of the Winter Olympics either because we have few athletes competing and they're probably not gonna win anything anyways.

Only a few of the events...And those few I'll watch casually...like the hockey and the down hill snowboard racing...I'm not a fan of winter sports to be honest...

I'm actually very excited about the World Cup (football/soccer)...That's within a few months...The biggest sporting event on planet earth...(Google it if you have doubts).. :D And this time it's in Brazil...I really wish I could be there watching those games live...The street parties will be crazy too...

Nope. But looking at the failures in Sochi is just too much fun.

I watch the Farking shit out of the Olympics. Wtf is wrong with you guys that you can't appreciate the Farking pinnacle of human ability. Every 4 years we send our elite athletes to compete and represent our glorious motherlands in competition. Everyone has trained for this moment for 4 years. They have perfected their craft and prepared them selves perfectly. Now is their time to shine and dominate! They shall follow in the footsteps of the ancient Greeks and be immortalized in the pantheon of immortals that is the champions list of the Olympics. The highest achievement in all of sports: a gold medal in the Olympics!!

Now tell me you wouldn't watch the shit out of that.

I watched the shit out of this:

Blackfox pls, there's 4 years between the same olympics. Last winter olympics was 2010 in Vancouver. An athlete spends 4 years preparing for the olympics.
@sanktum, The Netherlands only has speedskaters that are pro, it's not like we have that many competing athletes. I watch the olympics for all the sports and all the countries. It's more fun if you have someone to cheer for, but the matches are epic either way.

But still.. It's every two years the Olympics!
Btw: The summer Olympics might appeal to more people
than the winter games!
