I watch it every chance I get. I watch every sport, but I particularly love curling. It's like chess on ice.

I really like the downhill skiing and other race events. They show way too much figure skating. Absolutely love the summer games though.

Haven't watched and I don't see that changing

Almost. I caught about 30 min of the Russian woman's curling team doing their thing one night. Well worth the viewing even tho I have no clue what curling is.

Some friends & I played MST3K to the opening ceremonies at Buffalo WW. I don't know about you a$&holes but it awakened MY inner child.
Seriously though, no..except for a little USA/Canada women's hockey play-in last night. I'll be on board this wknd maybe. Gotta keep checking 12 channels I never watch.

sorry for coming in late on this....but not one second.
I also dont like sports you are "supposed" to watch just because of the Olympics.
If I dont care about curling or figure skating or the downhill in a regular year....why do I have to watch them now?
So not happening. I usually can find a Duck Dynasty replay or some "real" sports!

I don't dislike the Winter Olympics. I just don't consider it to be part of the real Olympics. Not interested in the least.

I've been watching the winter olympics when I can but it's been around 90% ice dancing or figure skating.... ugh.
I can't take another ice dancing competition.

I'm right there with ya, couldn't give a flying frick about the political corruption exercise disguised as an athletic competition. Yes I have an axe to grind with the IOC as well, but I genuinely am not captivated by anything in these games and I usually watch as much as I can in all the events.

Any links to some corruption charges? I have been scouring the interwebs for the same thing on FIFA and it's kleptocratic high leadership.

I like the Olympics but I hate NBC's primetime coverage of the Olympics. Like last night. It looked like they were finally going to discuss hockey, but they wound up showing one highlight from the US game, and then "back to more ice dancing."
frick ice skating and frick NBC. Show the one thing that isn't actually a sport because men will watch because it's the Olympics, and women will ONLY watch ice skating.
I'm tired of the "casual viewer" ruining the experience for everyone else. The networks always cater to them and screw over their loyal audience. Yeah yeah, ratings, blah blah. Are there any other networks even competing with the Olympics? Every other show I watch is in two weeks of reruns.
