The Winter Olympics 2006

[spanko]

The Winter Olympics start this weekend in Turin, Italy. Not sure how many Irish participants there are, but i'm sure we won't get anything.

Will ya watch any of it?

I probably will watch some of the skiing, bobsleigh, ice hockey, and maybe curling...woohoo!

I think they should make a new sport..... ice-soccer. Have it like ice-hockey but just give the players extra studded boots and bigger nets.

I'll watch the Ice Hockey as much as possible. Hope to see the Bobsleigh and Skeleton too. Would like to see the Irish guys and girl do well. We came 4th in the men's skeleton last time around, but I'm not sure what this new guy (from Wicklow is like).

We don't have Eurosport any more so will be relying on BBC
