Although I usually root for Norway because I have relatives there and the United States, or course, I sure hope Klopstockia does well in the Olympics this year. They have a really excellent cross-country skier named Georges Ruudevic who might do as well as getting a bronze or silver metal in the 15 or 30 km, and a beautiful figure skater named Angelina Popawicz who is competing in the women's singles.
Who are y'all cheering for this year?

In the Summer Olympics I cheer for Ireland after the USA. But they don't have any or at least many Winter Olympians. So, just the USA & Italy. |

Ahh, The Winter Olympics - a.k.a. the Hockey Tournament, as many Canadians would classify it.
First we lose Lemieux to health and retirement, then Jovanovski and now Niedermayer - both to injury.

I know. The real kicker is my wife was down there 2 weeks ago for 4 days visiting friends that moved down there last year. MY 4 days there should've been THIS week!
I hope you at least had a cocktail for me...? |

recent allegations of gambling towards the Gretzky family have left me confused.
Sadly, I will not be competing this year in speed skating. |

Well, I'm a Flyers fan, so I know who Ed Jovanowski and Scott Neidermeyer are.
I gotta admit, I'm a homeboy. I root for the USA. If the USA isn't in contention, then I pull for anyone except France.
I'd like France if Paris wasn't there.... |

I still remember the day I saw my first hockey game... It was the Broad Street bullies vs. The Rangers. I don't remember who won, but there was blood on the ice in South Philly that night, and I was hooked. |

LOL!! We agree that Paris got to be destroyed and replaced by a big wood with rare animals (parisians??  )
I root for Botswana, they got a chance at curling (the most beautiful sport of the world, specially made for women ) |

Thanks baby. I'm still high from that Steelers Super Bowl victory sex we had, that "Touchdown!" you threw in at the end was quite the moment. |
