There is only one sport in the olympics that matters, like really matters: Ice hockey. All the other *sports* are nice opening acts but far from the headliner in my humble opinion. It’s the equivalent to football (some insist on calling it soccer) during the summer games.
I usually don’t start watching until the quarterfinals but when they arrive, like today, wild horses could not drag me away from my solid 27” LED iMac.
There are a lot at stake and many contenders. Canada, the US (my new home) and Sweden (my old home) could all win. But Finland, Russia and the Czech Republic could also surprise. Switzerland and Slovakia I doubt.
Let’s see if NBC can deliver their promised live coverage…
PS. Gotta back the US now when Sweden is so sadly out…
