Where is Eddie the Eagle when you need him?

No matter what happens in the Games- as political as things get-there is always the one story that makes you feel really good about sports.

It's a plaster that knocked down some walls and maybe gave a Brit the idea that they could ski-jump too?

Or a group of guys that decided that Jamaica needed a bob sled team?

I love the people who come the Middle East who do X-country sking.

There is only one Olympic Sport that I can not handle.

My favorite winter sports - figure skating, ski jumping and almost all the downhill skiing.

I will even watch some of the sledding events!!

Bobsleds are fine, but can you even imagine doing the luge or skeleton And the skeleton is done face first!!

Isn't that part of what makes them so fun to watch? Who would be so insane as to try that? Ski jumping is sort of the same. I love to watch it because I know I never, ever could have or will try such a thing!

I dont get into the summer games.

Winter games, I love the downhill skiing events except the jumping. Slalom, and Super G are where its at.

Ild love to see monoskiing get popular enough to become an event but I dont see that ever happening.

Did you ever see this?

Arguably the single best downhill ever.

Very impresive yard sales followed by the jaw dropping run and stats! No I hadnt seen that before, thank you.

I had the chace to run a super g course once, but my big board gets really unstable at those speeds and my all mountain board isnt fast enough for the course.

ETA: I saw he was riding Blizzards. Ild love, heck maybe kill, to get my hands on a Blizzard monoski.

Then there is Curling. I even enjoy watching this sport.

The best rock for the stones comes from Ailsa Craig, an island off Turnberry on the west coast of Scotland. My grandfather never curled, but he designed and built a boat he named Ailsa Craig.

The first Olympic curling Gold went to the Canadian women, in 1998.
