i personally can't get enough of the winter olympics it's just amazing how fast they ski down those steep hills and look as if they are on the edge of diaster all the time and the speed skaters make it look so easy flying around the short track but the most insane has to be those people who compete in the skeleton flying down the course head first:eek: anyway what do you all think ?
 
they take the best and throw them in the competition. Id be the last one on the roster world wide to try that.


AND im not a fan of watching it.

I watch some every nite. Snowboard is my favorite. Stuff like the luge, bobsled, figure skate. [ladies are ok]:) I pic up a book and read, soooo repetitious.:rolleyes:
Reckon you have to know a little about it to appreciate.

My favorite is Curling. A sport that almost anyone can enjoy and participate in.

I am with you on that. It seems like all they ever play on TV is the Ice dancing/skating which I could care less for.
 
The Outdoor channel is good but Sportsman channel rocks.

sorry for the Dish Network guys.. they dont get sportsman.


sorry. im just not into the Olympics. Although I do find Curling a very hard and judgement game.

I used to watch more of the Outdoor channel and Verus. I just seems to get to be the same old thing after a while.

I wish they showed the biathlon more. Those guys can control there breathing. It is neat to see.
 
I really wish that pheasant hunting was one of the events at the Olympics. If it was, I'd have a chance for a gold medal. I've practiced alot and my dog is pretty good and I'm a fairly good shot and I have a Benelli so who knows......

yah.. I used to watch both those channels before Directv dropped VS and outdoor got boring.


then Directv introduced The Sportsman's Channel which rocks. got everything in it. they even show pheasant hunting.

The VS and The Outdoor Channel would show alot more fishing than deer or anything. pheasant hunting wasnt a huge thing for either channel.

Dish Network still has VS (Verus) and outdoor channel.

It is part of the summer Olympics. When I was in the military and stationed at Ft Carson, CO, we used to go over to the International Shooting Park and shoot clays during lunch. Had a lot of fun watching what I guess were people either trying out or part of the team. Either way, watching them shoot could make you walk away with your tail between your legs.
